The early period doesn't help the kids.
UGA will be sitting pretty after this early period. The coaches will be free to focus on 3-4 kids going into February.
But every kid who signed is locked in with no options despite the coaching shite-show that will happen for the next 3 months.

I can see it helping kids.
But this thing will swing like a pendulum. Right now you have coaches in some programs pushing a hard line to kids that they sign or else their spot is in jeopardy. It may work for the short term but I can guarantee you that there will be an up swelling of kids calling that bluff in the not too distant future.
The coaches that slow play will be better positioned and in that time where teams are patient only the kids who are so sure that is where they want to play will sign early.
But I'd like to see the component where a kid can sign at any point after a certain date.

In theory this should force high school students and coaches to be more conscious about their decision early on. Just because a kid can sign early doesn’t mean they have to. For those that need more time they can take it but this forces coaches to be more honest with their intentions. On the whole, I think this gives the players/students more power in negotiations which is badly needed
