Happy National Signing Day to the class of 2023 in college football.
There was once a time — and it wasn’t THAT long ago — that we used to celebrate with videos of fax machines showing us who was joining which college football team out of high school. Now? We take the time on our X (formerly Twitter) timelines to see the announcements from various programs about their signings.
And as we’ve seen in past years saw last year, it’s an opportunity for social media managers to shine as some programs find quirky ways to announce who’s joining their teams. We’ve seen video games being imitated, walks through cities, all kinds of stuff in years past.
This year? Let’s round up some of the more creative announcements we’ve seen on Wednesday:
