As the weather heats up, so does recruiting: Why June is now one of the most important months
Briefly

As the busiest month in college football recruiting approaches, June is increasingly seen as the pivotal time for schools to impress high school prospects. With 95% of seniors signing letters of intent in the early period, schools feel compelled to secure their classes sooner. The NCAA's recent evaluation period has intensified the urgency, leading up to a flurry of campus visits and commitments. Major programs like Washington and California are already preparing for a wave of talented recruits, making it clear that June is the time for decisive action in recruitment.
With the early period beginning the first Wednesday of December and the transfer portal window opening the following week, schools want to secure their recruiting classes sooner rather than later.
June is rapidly becoming the new January—the month schools get their last chance to impress recruits.
By July 4, most players have wrapped up their recruitments. It's a crucial time, fully loaded with recruiting showcases on campuses.
The recruiting calendar has accelerated like never before, as college coaches now prioritize securing commitments earlier in the year.
