Happy New Year, one and all. As is my tradition, the 2024 Big Board drops at the start of the calendar contact year. And we're still looking to get more eyeballs on the great sport, and the logistics behind it.

There's a lot fewer names to start off with this year, mostly because I can't draw as many connections between the staff and some 2024 prospects as of yet. Covid has been rough on the information trail, and it's kept the coaches off the trail for the next contact period. Still, there's plenty of guys to watch, and more names will be added. 

I've decided against putting in the added dates for new guys this year, because it doesn't really matter. More names will appear, and there will be no deletions, until September 2022. Lots of anticipation, before a huge 70 days of recruiting mayhem. Without further ado, here's the list:
