The dead period for college football recruiting ended Thursday, beginning a wild blitz of last-minute offers, flips and commitments that ends with National Signing Day on Feb. 3. 

That's right. Crootin' Season is in full effect. 

That means we'll see plenty of antics from head coaches over the next several weeks, from Jim Harbaugh sleeping over at a kicker's house to SMU coach Chad Morris showing off his dance moves on Twitter. 

Morris used to share a locker room with Dabo Swinney while at Clemson, now he's giving the Coach of the Year a run for his money in the viral video department. 

Check out Morris cutting a rug to 50 Cent's "In Da Club." No dabbing or "running off on da plug" moves here, just unbridled enthusiasm for recruiting and SMU football. 

ESPN's Jared Shanker thinks the inspiration may come from the Jungle Book.
