Early Signing Period Preview: The 25-player rule isn't a biggie
As it stands right now, Minnesota is the only program that heads into this new signing period with over 25 commits, sitting at 26.

December 2017 Wiltfong article:
Every year around National Signing Day, the question arises. How do programs sign more than 25 players when that is the limit put in place for each school?
The answer is simple: up to five early enrollees are allowed to count toward the previous class.
The better overall question is this. Why does anyone think we have any count-backs left? We have enrolled nearly every NSD signee for the past few years, plus we have taken transfers. Every new scholarship player counts, not just freshmen, except for walk-ons.
