The National Letter of Intent period for the mid-year transfers begins on December 14th, 2016 and ends on January 15th, 2017. In actuality, high school mid-year transfers sign a Financial Aid Agreement form (aka Grant-in-Aid form) which binds the school but doesn't bind the prospect until they attend the first day of classes.
These prospects cannot be officially announced until the first day of classes at the earliest (a school may elect to just wait until February 1st's National Letter of Intent day to announce). So for example, if Loren Mondy signs tomorrow, ASU cannot officially announce it at least until January 9th, 2017.
This NCAA rule change that was enacted in August stems by the way from what LSU did this time a year ago, when they announced more than a handful of high school mid-year transfers signings and just two of them ended up enrolling and attending school.
We will obviously pass on any updates on Mondy and other high school mid-year transfers we hear that have signed with ASU.
To my knowledge, ASU currently is not pursuing any mid-year junior college transfers, aside from former signee Doug Subtyl. In the event that they did land such a prospect they could announce this once the prospect signs.
I hope this clarifies what we can expect for tomorrow and the rest of the National Letter of Intent period for the mid-year transfers. Please feel free to post any questions you have on this here on this thread.
