What matters here are the rules between the houses. Maybe a signature isn't even necessary? Or maybe F2 would think that anything F1 says is too suspect to be believable? This merits further investigation on OP's part and GreekChat isn't going to cut it.

And with the Waffle House comment, he's at any SEC school not in Missouri or Florida. For whatever reason, there is a Waffle House damn near everywhere in the other SEC states.
I meant campus rules rather than actual law. I've never heard of a verbal bid being binding in a "the Greek Life office or IFC will keep you from accepting elsewhere" sense, but it could be in a "every fraternity man on campus will think you are a douche for going back on your word" sense.
