early signing day

Early signing day swept the college football world Wednesday, while UTEP's newest head coach Scotty Walden and the program announced their early signees to the new-look Miner football roster.

On early signing day, UTEP took the same approach as they typically have done under head coach Dana Dimel and signed 17 newcomers to the team with 15 coming from the junior college ranks.

The UTEP football team announced 11 players to round out the early signing class, featuring eight athletes on defense and a mix of JUCO and high school recruits.

The NMSU football team announced the addition of nine new players for the 2018 season during early signing day.
