There will obviously be a lot of fallout from the Baylor situation but one of the immediate results is 7 2016 commits want to be released from the NLI's with Baylor and go elsewhere. Well Baylor's top recruit wasn't even officially signed with them because of the school's booboo - https://www.yahoo.com/sports/blogs/...-elsewhere-thanks-to-nli-gaffe-155743692.html
"A Baylor spokesman confirmed to ESPN on Thursday that its compliance department has determined that Duvernay does not have a valid NLI and said that information has been relayed to Duvernay's family and the Baylor coaching staff. Susan Peal, the director of the National Letter of Intent program told ESPN that she could not comment on the specific case.
According to NLI provisions, Baylor had to file Duvernay's NLI to the conference office within 14 days of the date of the final signature, otherwise the NLI would be deemed invalid.
Henry Duvernay discovered the error while attempting to submit his son's release request. He was unable to access Devin's account with the NLI database and reached out to Baylor and the NLI office for their help. Henry Duvernay told ESPN that Peal looked into the situation and determined Baylor did not send in Devin's signed NLI.
"She said Devin is not in the system," he said. "She had her people verify that, and he is free to go."
