In our annual National Signing Day edition of Inside The Valley, we took in-depth look at North Carolina A&T’s 2026 football recruiting class and also discussed the broader college football landscape shaping the program’s future.

The discussion opens with an overview of this year’s signing day efforts and dives into the ongoing debate between prioritizing high school recruits versus college transfers. We shared out thoughts the team’s biggest offseason needs and recent transfer portal departures.

Veteran recruiting analyst Craig Turner offered his keen insight on A&T’s newest signees across the defensive secondary, defensive line, linebackers, offensive line, wide receivers, and special teams.

This episode also features contributions from regular guests A&T-roy and Aggie 94, while also providing an update on AAF fundraising efforts.
