RED OAK – Red Oak High School and the athletics department hosted college-bound student-athletes, their families, coaches and college representatives on Wednesday, Feb, 5. More than 15 student-athletes confirmed their intent to various colleges.
Students announced their sport, position, and college of choice – then entered the gym with their parents. Following words from the district, board, and campus representatives, the students signed their letters of intent.
National Signing Day is the first day a high school senior can sign a binding letter of intent for college football. Although there are numerous signing periods for college sports, football, which always falls on the first Wednesday in February, is the most followed.
A letter of intent is binding for both the player and school for one academic year as long as the player is eligible to enroll at the college.
