HUNTSVILLE – Sam Houston head coach K.C. Keeler announced the addition of 13 student-athletes for the upcoming 2022 season on Wednesday, the first day of the early signing period.
"We are very excited about our early signing period class," Keeler said. "We signed a very talented group of players from both the high school and transfer ranks that we think will help us continue to play at a high level and lay the foundation as we transition into FBS. We look forward to continuing to build on the class going into February signing day."
The class is the strongest in the history of Bearkat Football as the program begins its transition to the FBS in the 2022 season. Of Sam Houston's 13 signees, nine are rated as 3-star prospects with six coming from the high school ranks, two being transfers and one from junior college.Â
Five of the signees are rated among the Top 10 signees in program history according to 247Sports.com
Â
The signing class comes on the heels of a history 2021 for the Bearkats that saw them claim the 2020 FCS national championship in May and then make a run to the semifinals of the FCS Playoffs just six months later, winning 21 games in a row along the way.
