Mountain West Recruiting Roundup 9-15-25. Offers are picking up,

It’s another week of the Mountain West Recruiting Roundup.

This week brought an increase in offers handed out to recruits, plus some official visits and new commitments.

One reason for the offers is settling into the season and coaches getting in a better routine. Another would be more game film is available for high school seniors. The third reason for more offers this week is that so many Mountain West teams were on a bye week this past week.

Bye weeks offer a lot of benefits for teams. For one, it’s a time for rest and recovery for players, especially those banged up with injuries. They are also able to prepare more for their upcoming game. But because teams usually practice less, or at least won’t have anything to do on Friday evening, they are able to get out and watch high school teams play.

Looking at the offer below, Colorado State (4), San Diego State (3), and UNLV (5) were among the leaders in offers this week and all three were on byes. That being said, Wyoming had an offer and hosted a few official visitors. Also, they gained two new commits. The Cowboys hit the trifecta with recruiting and find themselves on the cover photo this week.

From September through November, we will be in an evaluation period. Coaches can go and scout recruits at their games and at school, although they can’t have direct communication with them off campus. As always, coaches can still talk to recruits via phone, text, email, or DM.

The NCAA Evaluation Period is a specific time of year when college coaches are allowed to watch an athlete compete in person or visit their school. However, coaches are not allowed to communicate with that athlete (or parents) off the college campus. Coaches can sit in the stands during a recruit’s practice or game, as well as visit the recruit’s school. This gives college coaches a chance to talk to the recruit’s coach, teachers, or guidance counselor to get a better understanding of the student-athlete’s character. After the visit, the coach may call or email the recruit and let them know how their experience was at the school or game.

The NCAA Evaluation Period is just that: a time set aside for evaluation. While coaches can’t talk to athletes off the college campus, they can still call, email, text, and direct message recruits.

Since the Air Force Academy regularly has by far the most commits among Mountain West recruiting classes, it’s fun to track them over the course of the year.
