Fire up the fax machines. The next group of Cardinal stars are here.
David Shaw's 4th recruiting class will finally be in the books after Wednesday's National Signing Day, and Shaw is on pace to bring in another rock solid class after last year's group was heralded as the 14th-best in the country by Rivals.
According to Rivals, the Cardinal are 18th heading into signing day and should finish with a top-25 class no matter what. Stanford ranks slightly lower on 247 Sports and ESPN, but the Cardinal has finished strong over the last two months after having a small class at the turn of the calendar.
The biggest prospects still uncommited but consdering Stanford are defensive back Quenton Meeks, a cornerback from San Diego considered a 5-star player by Rivals, and Louisiana DB Justin Reid, the younger brother of San Francisco 49ers safety Eric Reid. The elder Reid played close to home at LSU, but perhaps the younger Reid wants to join his brother in the Bay Area.
Reid will announce his commitment at 10:30 am Pacific time, while Meeks will wait until 2 pm Pacific to make the call.
It's also worth noting that Sean Barton, a 3-star linebacker, will be returning from a Mormon mission in 2015 and will join with this class in the fall.
Here's the list of players currently committed to the Cardinal that are expected to sign their letters of intent on Wednesday (all star rankings according to Rivals):
