Predictions for when recruiting will start for SA2021

Curious to see what people think about the recruiting timelines. I personally went through an extremely early one, and this SA2020 saw firms start as early as January to even right now. Do you think recruiting will be pushed back for SA2021 or will underclassmen still have to sign more than a year in advance?

I really hope they move to at least August. After soph internships and before school is a solid time for the chaos of interviewing.
