Viator scrambles to add 19 new Warhawks

ULM went from just 10 commitments two weeks ago to nearly doubling that by signing day.

New ULM head coach Matt Viator only had about a month to go from settling in at Monroe to signing day. He basically had to build his class from scratch, as there were only a handful commitments at that point to begin with, and he had to re-build relationships with all those players, who had committed to former head coach Todd Berry.

So while 19 - including four juco transfers - is one of the lowest total number of commitments of any team in the Sun Belt, the fact that he was able to pull together what was the last-ranked class in the conference up to a respectable eighth is impressive.
