Wednesday began the three-day early signing period for prep football players nationally.
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga announced 11 signees on the first day.
“Really excited about this crew,” Rusty Wright, who recently wrapped up his sixth season as head coach of the Mocs, said in a UTC release. “We identified this group a long time ago and have been on them for a while. We hadn’t had many committed early, but we’d been on them a long time, and there’s some guys that were committed to some other places that we had an opportunity to stay in on and some things happened and got them.
“It’s a really good group of football players and people. They play the game the right way.”
Wright won’t have media availability until the end of the week, and the Times Free Press will report further on UTC’s signees once the early period wraps up, but here is some information on the 11 signees so far, listed in alphabetical order, with height, weight, town and high school.
