Baylor has a top 25 recruiting class already heading into national signing day. With that being said, there are a few questions remaining heading into signing day.

Here are the three things Bears fans need to know heading into signing day:

Biggest areas of need

The Bears are desperately thin at the quarterback position heading into 2018. With the departures of Zach Smith and Anu Solomon, the Bears only have two scholarship quarterbacks on the roster in Charlie Brewer and recent signee Gerry Bohanon. At least one more quarterback would help ease Bears fans' fears after an injury filled season in 2017 ruined any chances of the Bears being successful. Offensive line depth will help, as the Bears ranked eighth in rushing offense and last in sacks allowed. Another area of need is defensive playmakers. The Bears were horrendous last season, allowing big plays at inopportune times and allowing opposing teams to march up and down the field against their defense. The Bears could use some defensive playmakers at all levels on defense, as they ranked eighth in the Big 12 in sacks, last in interceptions and sixth in opponent third down conversion rate.

Players who can make an immediate impact

The Bears have several openings on both sides of the ball in which the 2018 recruiting class might be able to step in and make an immediate impact. At running back Craig Williams, like John Lovett last season, could help the Bears' ground game that averaged just 117.2 yards per game last season. Bohanon has all the potential in the world to beat out incumbent Charlie Brewer for the starting position at quarterback. Brewer played well last season for the Bears, but if he has not fixed the mental errors he made as a freshman, Bohanon could step in and replace him. Defensively, depending on where coach Matt Rhule wants to play him, four-star recruit BJ Hanspard could make an immediate impact in the secondary for the Bears. The Bears only had three interceptions last season, ranking last in the Big 12.

Recruits who have not committed yet

WR Tommy Bush - Bush is a three-star speedster wide receiver (4.47 40 time) out of Schertz. At 6'5, Bush would be the best friend of any quarterback in the red zone next season. Bush currently has 46 offers on the table.

DE Dorian Hardy - Hardy is a three-star defensive end recruit out of Paramus Catholic in New Jersey. Rhule has had success getting recruits out of the tri-state area, last season getting John Lovett, Harrison Hand and Rob Saulin all from New Jersey. Hardy has 24 other offers, but the Bears were the only school he made an official visit.

DE Joseph Ogunbanjo - Ogunbanjo is a three-star recruit out Aleif Taylor in Houston. The Bears are one of four Texas schools to offer to Ogunbanjo, and the only one he visited. Ogunbanjo originally committed to the Bears in August, but decommitted in November.
