'Twas the night before signing day, when all through the Burton Complex
Not a Carten was stirring, especially those weighing a Tun(de);
The offers were hung with sharp Spears by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Jarvis and Jackson soon would be signing theirs.

The current players were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of bowl games and new recruits joining them danced in their heads;
And HCJM in his pullover and the staff in their caps,
Had just settled down for a restless nap.

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
Jimmy sprang from the bed to see if some reinforcements were the matter.
Away to the window he flew like a flash,
He Tor(ian) open the shutters and threw up the Seth.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the luster of new recruits below,
When, what should appear to his wondering eyes,
But a fax machine humming with NLIs.

With a little driver, so lively and quick,
He knew in a moment it must be something Briggs.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name.

"Now, Kelley! now, Chol! now, Tucker and Cam!
On, Ricky! on Hudson! on, Zack and Eriq!
To the top of the Rent! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all! –
and enjoy some Teddy football"

Here’s hoping that jolly soul rewarded the ‘22 effort
with a few extra gifts – how ‘bout an Ahmad and a Lewis!
