for at least the next 18 months:

"After Notre Dame offered Johnson, the pandemic hardly deterred him from reaching a decision. But missing out on exposure opportunities made garnering offers and improving his spot in the recruiting rankings more difficult.

There were no in-person evaluations. There were no recruiting camps. There were no track meets to help verify speed."

Class of 21 and class of 22 kids are going to have a much, much harder time getting noticed. Camps might not even start back up this summer. Lots of kids will be signing LOI's without even being on an official visit. The NCAA has provided absolutely no guidance here whatsoever, only extending a dead period and hoping that this whole thing works itself out.
