Coming off one of the worst seasons in the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga’s Division I men’s basketball history, coach Lamont Paris saw the immediate need to get better – and quickly.
With his recruiting class, he feels he’s done just that.
Paris announced Friday the signings of forwards Kevin Easley and Keigan Kerby. They join incoming freshman guards Maurice Commander and Donovann Toatley, Fairfield junior transfer guard Jerry Johnson and Arizona State sophomore forward transfer Ramon Vila as new pieces for the 2018-19 season.
Vila won’t be available until after the first semester is over.
“I’m really excited about where we are from a roster standpoint in general,” Paris said in a news release. “The entire team really excites me. This group of newcomers – I can’t wait to get started seeing what these guys are capable of and coaching these guys.
