With tomorrow being the start of the early signing period, thought I'd start this thread to post any news (tweets, articles, pictures, videos, etc.) of future Buffs officially signing their National Letters of Intents (NLI's).
The main purpose of this thread is NOT to post news of newly found commitments, which is already found in the http://www.allbuffs.com/threads/recruiting-news-olympic-sports.101643/ thread . However, If any new recruits do pop up during the signing process, especially during the early signing days, I'll probably post them both places. Of course, if anyone else finds any news, they're welcome to also post here. Although I'm starting this thread right before the start of the early signing period, we can use this to report on signings throughout the whole year.
As noted in the above linked recruiting thread, signing dates for the Olympic sports are:
For all but soccer, Olympic sport NCAA formal signing periods are:
Early Signing Period: November 11, 2015 -November 18, 2015 (Same as basketball)
Regular Signing Period: April 13, 2015 - August 1, 2015
Soccer only has one signing period- Feb. 3, 2015 (same as football) through August 1st
So, the 1st official day of the early signing period is tomorrow (except for soccer), so hopefully there will be news starting tomorrow morning. That being said, with Veteran's Day being tomorrow, some/ many most (????) high schools may be off, so some future Buffs wanting to take part in their school's signing day may not be signing until Thursday.

For ease of reference, from the main recruiting thread, expected commitments for next academic year (2016/17) we know about so far that could be signing as early as tomorrow are:
(Note- it seems team sport athletes commit and in many cases sign much earlier than those in individual sports, so expect more individual sport athletes to become known and sign as the year goes on. Also, of course, circumstances change, so assume some verbal commits listed below below may not end up as Buffs.) :

Additional signees- Giancarlo Narvarte (See post #5, high jumper), Sage Hurta (See post #12, cross country and middle distance), Nathan Pixler (See post #15, cross country and middle distance), Connor Dunne (See post #16, middle distance), Drianna Mustin (See post #18, sprints (400M emphasis?) and/ or multi-events?)
