The Mocs Sign 13 Football Recruits on First Day of Early Signing Period

(gomocs.com) The Chattanooga Mocs signed 13 players during the first day of the early signing period, including four with Chattanooga area ties.
“It’s been a really exciting time these past few months,” stated UTC head football coach Tom Arth. “Going back into summer time and even last spring we started to recruit and build relationships with the student-athletes, their coaching staffs and families. I’m really getting to know this group of players well and I’m very excited that we were able to sign them early in December.

“They want to be here and we want them here. This group of very talented student-athletes are also great young men and we see leadership qualities in all of them. These guys won’t only make your team better, but they’ll make your program better and your campus better. I’m really excited to welcome them into our family and have them here as soon as possible.”
