2017 Recruiting Update: Tae Daley, Dimitri Moore to enroll early at Vanderbilt

The absence of an early signing period in college football means that the last month or so of the recruiting cycle can become a circus, but some guys avoid all that by finishing high school a semester early and then enrolling in college. While student-athletes can’t officially sign a Letter of Intent until February — they can enroll in college for the spring semester, putting an end to the recruiting process.

One came with much fanfare, and the other, apparently, with a tweet. Safety commit Tae Daley, a 5’11”, 175-pounder from Warner Robins (GA) Northside), and Dimitri Moore, a 6’2”, 195-pound linebacker from Cedar Hill (TX), will enroll at Vanderbilt in January and participate in spring football. That will give them a full semester to get used to college life before the 2017 football season begins; it also removes any possibility of signing-day shenanigans. We welcome Tae and Dimitri to the Vanderbilt community.
