Welcome to the 2012 National Signing Day headquarters for RMU football. We'll have a list of all the verbal commitments as we track them down the next few days, and then beginning Wednesday, a list of all the official National Letter of Intent signees as well as other commits.
A couple things regarding this year's class:
- There is no more junior varsity program at Robert Morris. That means the roster is limited to 85 total players. At last check, the Northeast Conference's cap on athletic scholarships is 40, though schools can come up with additional aid (academic or financial) provided its available to all students.
- Looks like Robert Morris is going to add about 18 scholarship players this year. They may add a few others. By our count, 12 players graduated. Several others have transferred. We'll have a full transfer list soon and link to it in this thread.
The below list is only CONFIRMED verbal commitments. There are a couple others out there that we're trying to track down more information on. We have strict rules on the database, too, so we'll add to the Rivals.com database as we get additional confirmation.
UPDATE: The final list, per RMU:
