Signing day winners, schools that missed in football recruiting

With the early signing period starting Wednesday, college football programs have been working hard to add as much talent to their future rosters as possible.

Schools have been actively recruiting the transfer portal to fill needs while complementing their rosters with high school recruits. While some teams have thrived, others have been limping to the finish this recruiting cycle.

Alabama has the No. 1 recruiting class, and though the staff hasn't been active adding players in the portal yet, the Tide are bringing in a record amount of ESPN 300 talent. Others have been active in the portal, filling immediate needs, as Oklahoma, Michigan and UCLA are all closing strong with transfers.

Wednesday's events shook things up even more with commitments, decommitments and flips, combined with transfer decisions that will impact who wins the recruiting cycle and who missed out. Here are six schools that are on top and four that have big question marks to answer.
