• The Early Decision list is, as it says, official. But the heights and weights are not official. They are drawn from the internet and those sources can vary widely. Feel free to share corrections.
• The Regular Decision list is, with the exception of an email or two, drawn entirely from the internet. Given that it's not an official list, caveat emptor. No guarantees that these kids are coming.
• Heights and weights on the regular list are from the internet. (See above.) Positions are speculative.
• High schools are listed for the RD kids because it's not clear in many cases what the hometowns are.
• Feel free to point out typos. You are my best prufreeder ;-)
• There should be another 10 or so names out there.
• Ivy League coaches are not allowed to talk about the regular decision recruits until their deposits have been received in the spring. BUT, the student-athletes, their families, coaches and friends can, so keep those emails coming with names and corrections. ;-)
• Signing Day is Feb. 6 but because the Ivy League does not recognize the National Letter of Intent, whatever "ceremony" takes place regarding Ivy recruits is for show only. That said, there will be a lot of newspaper and internet stories that day and in the days to follow.
• If you see something I missed, send it along. Please!
• And finally, guys, be careful with those Twitter accounts. I've seen some pretty nasty stuff, not necessarily from anyone listed below, but it's out there and people who are going to make judgments about you are reading it.
And now, without further ado . . .
