University of Cincinnati football coach Luke Fickell announced a class of 13 signees and one graduate transfer Wednesday afternoon on college football's early signing day. Highlighting the class is Michigan graduate transfer James Hudson, a four-star recruit according to 247sports.com.

"We signed 13 guys which still gives us a lot of flexibility for January and February," Fickell said. "We weren't going to jump into taking some of these extra slots."

Fickell pointed out that a year ago, the Bearcats added such talent as running back Tavion Thomas, Bowling Green transfer Cam Jeffries and defensive end Myjai Sanders after the early signing period last February.
