So, we thought we might snag a few blue chips late but they went elsewhere.

The SEC blew away the field on Signing Day 2017. The Big 12 did not.

The Big 12 clocks in last among the power conferences, and the American keeps distinguishing itself as the best among everyone else. The SEC’s still the king.
