On this, the first day college football prospects could sign official letters-of-intent with their chosen school, the biggest drama involved another kind of signature.
Vidal Hazelton, the nation's No. 1-ranked receiver, announced last month he would be attending USC, but in the weeks since had been considering changing to Penn State. On Wednesday, Hazelton, who played his senior season at Hargrave (Va.) Military Academy, faxed his letter-of-intent to the Trojans, but, according to Scout.com, it did not have the consent of his guardians, which is required of prospects under the age of 21.
"My son needs to learn some discipline," his father, Dexter Hazelton, told Scout.com early Wednesday afternoon in explaining why he did not sign the letter. "I know if he signs today, he could change his mind tomorrow."
