Wednesday marks the start of college football’s early signing period, which has replaced February’s National Signing Day as the most important day of the year in the recruiting world. The early signing period is three days in December when the nation’s top recruits sign their letters of intent and pick a college.
Over the years, this period, along with the traditional signing day, has had some awesome and exceptionally odd yet memorable moments, from the way players announce their decisions to how programs (and their social media teams) officially announce the future members of their teams.
Remember Oklahoma’s musical welcome last year? Or what about the recruits from Florida and their Chucky dolls?
Well this year, Baylor is in a league of its own, welcoming its recruits to the program with… puppets.
Yes, the Bears have transformed their recruits into puppets for some totally bizarre but spectacularly ridiculous videos introducing the college football world to these players. Seriously, these videos are so absurd, but we can’t look away.
And to be fair, Baylor is also tweeting recruits’ highlights, but those are wildly overshadowed by the puppets.
