Typically the January and February leading up to a National Signing Day is a mad dash for UTSA and its coaches as the Roadrunners seek to complete their recruiting class and ward off Power 5 predators seeking to woo UTSA commits over to the dark side.
I suspect the mood in the coaches’ office was much more relaxed this winter than in previous ones as UTSA secured binding signatures from the overwhelming majority of their recruiting class during the early signing period. With few spots left to fill, the coaching staff was able to get a jump start on the class of 2019, offering many of the top athletes in the city and state well ahead of the Roadrunners’ recruiting competition.
