Ranking the Power 5 Conferences National Signing Day performances
4. Atlantic Coast Conference
The ACC had a bit of an underwhelming day but teams with new head coaches were able to re-establish themselves on the recruiting trail. The Florida State Seminoles led the way for the conference, racking up four five-star recruits, according to 247Sports.
The Seminoles got the commitment of five-star defensive tackle Marvin Wilson, keeping him in the ACC and away from SEC schools like Alabama and LSU. Clemson was the only other team to acquire five-star recruits, racking up two. Despite having just 14 commitments, the Tigers finished third-best in the conference and 16th overall.
The Virginia Tech Hokies got four-star safety Devon Hunter to commit and linebacker Dylan Rivers to flip from Penn State to finish with a Top 25 Recruiting Class, according to 247Sports. Head coach Justin Fuente is making huge strides on the recruiting trail already in just two seasons.
As is Miami head coach Mark Richt. Richt and the Hurricanes finished with the 13th ranked recruiting class, a few spots ahead of Clemson, according to 247 Sports. With quarterback Brad Kaaya leaving early for the NFL Draft, Richt signed a dual-threat and pro-style quarterback to make things interesting in 2017. The Hurricanes also signed five offensive lineman.
