Added depth: UTEP adds 22 more on late national signing day

Signing day has changed immensely in recent years for a variety of reasons and Dana Dimel can’t remember one quite like Wednesday.

UTEP football announced the addition of 13 new players on the second signing day, who joined nine players “added to the program between signing day one and signing day two.”

Throw in the 17 players the Miners announced on the first signing day in December and they’ve added 39 new names to the roster. Some of those are preferred walk-ons and Dimel by policy doesn’t make a distinction on those, but it amounts to a bigger influx of talent than UTEP is used to.
