Lehigh Football Nation

(Photo Credit: Matt Smith/The Express-Times) Yes, it's that time of year once again! What has become an annual rite for Lehigh Football Nation readers is the yearly posting where I assemble all the known recruiting information for the incoming freshman football class. For the last five years I've been competing with the legendary poster RichH to determine the incoming class. Below the flip, get a sneak peek of Lehigh's class of 2017 - and come back to this page often, as I'm going to be updating it frequently over the next few weeks until Lehigh officially announces their incoming class.

There's nothing earth-shattering about that, either.  Most seasons FCS football teams play 11 regular-season games. But thanks to a quirk in the calendar next season, 2013 offers a rare opportunity for Lehigh: to play a 12th game. For Lehigh or other schools in the Patriot League, is it a good idea to play a 12th game? Absolutely.
