I saw that too....don't know what it means, but I saw it. If I had to guess, I'd say it might have something to do with getting started on recruiting for next year.

We had 17 recruits announced on Feb 3. Perhaps that is the reference.

Another thought: There are 17 starters returning from last year's team.

Or maybe it means playing for a championship in January of 2017......

Doesn't matter, I like all the ideas we've come up with. ;)

It's the name of their 2017 recruiting mission and the class will carry that name/identity...
