College football recruiting: Where the top 25 prospects in 2023 have signed

Your look at where the premier college football recruiting talent is heading for the 2023 season

The whirlwind 2023 college football recruiting calendar got its first dose of closure during the Christmas holiday when most of the nation's premier high school talent made their commitments official.

As a result, most of the premier prospects have taken much of the drama out of the remaining Signing Day festivities and indeed most of the blue-chip players have already enrolled at their respective schools.

But the regular National Signing Day isn't without its own drama, especially regarding the final decision of quarterback Jaden Rashada, whose whirlwind courtship at Miami and then Florida resulted in a third school entering the fray.

Where are the top 25 players in the nation heading this fall?
