Texas Southern Tigers Sign 14 Players

HOUSTON, Texas - Texas Southern’s new football head coach has signed his first class as a Tiger.  Head coach Darrell Asberry signed 14 players so far, and he says they will be expected to play now.

“We are bringing in a good group of kids both academically and athletically,” said Asberry. “We believe they will fit in with the nucleus of players we already have. These are not red-shirt players; they will be expected to contribute right now.”



Here is a breakdown of the new Tigers. Eight of the 14 recruits are from Texas. Four are from the Houston area. We have 10 offensive players and three defensive players.

We will update this list as more recruits become available.
