One thing worth mentioning is that August 1st is when teams can send out official written offers to 2027 recruits. While it is more of a formality these days, especially for those already verbally committed, it can still function as a test to see how much interest a team still has in a player they verbally offered months or years ago. For avid fans, tracking who reports an official offer from a team is sometimes helpful to know if they are still being recruited by that team.Looking at this week, offers continue to be sparse, with Colorado State having the only known offer for the week. But there were three commits this past week, one each for San Jose State, Washington State, and Wyoming. No one team truly stands out, but the Spartans will take a week on the cover photo.Class of 2027 Cover Photo Total:Oregon State: 3San Jose State: 3UNLV: 3Fresno State: 2North Dakota State: 2San Diego State: 2Wyoming: 2Air Force: 1Colorado State: 1Hawaii: 1New Mexico: 1NIU: 1UTEP: 1Washington State: 1Recruiting Calendar:Starting tomorrow and going through the rest of the summer, we are now in a dead period. All in-person contact of any kind is off-limits. But that doesn’t mean recruiting stops; it just slows down as coaches focus on the start of the season. As always, it is okay for texts, calls, and DMs.RECRUITs: Here are the updated 2025-2026 recruiting calendars for Division 1 football (FBS & FCS). Outside the dead periods, you can visit campuses. Coaches will be on the road during evaluation and contact periods to see you.#Recruiting101pic.twitter.com/vE1eT3f7UY— Coach J.R. Sandlin (@JR_Sandlin) July 23, 2025Next College Student Athlete says:The most restrictive of all the recruiting periods is the NCAA Dead Period. During the dead period, coaches may not have any in-person contact with recruits and/or their parents. In other words, coaches are not allowed to talk to recruits at their college campus, the athlete’s school, an athletic camp or even the grocery store.While the term “dead period” makes it seem like all recruiting stops during this time, that’s actually not the case. Athletes and coaches are still allowed to communicate via phone, email, social media and other digital communication channels. While NCAA Division 1 programs are prohibited from conducting any in-person recruiting, D1 college coaches can still contact student-athletes via digital forms of communication during the dead period.2027 Mountain West August Team Rankings:This Monday features the latest round of Pac-12 team rankings.
