Western Michigan football secured 19 signees as part of its 2021 recruiting class on Wednesday morning during college football’s early signing period.
This was a balanced class for head coach Tim Lester from a positional standpoint as the class consists of four offensive linemen, four along the defensive line, four wide receivers, two linebackers and one player each from the cornerback, safety, tight end, running back and quarterback positions.
Lester said despite the challenges the pandemic presented with recruiting in this year’s class, he feels like he is closer with this class than any other in his time at WMU and that this class fills some current needs on the roster.
