The Texas Southern football team has added seven student-athletes to its 2023 class on the first day of the spring signing period. TSU’s class now stands at 15 student-athletes as eight student-athletes signed in December.

Texas Southern addressed nearly every position during this signing cycle with two offensive linemen, two defensive linemen, a kicking specialist, a defensive back, and a wide receiver. Experience was addressed also as two of the signees arrived via the transfer portal with another from the junior college ranks.

Texas continues to be the foundation as four of the signees hail from the state with one signee each from California, Louisiana and Mississippi.

The total haul for the 2023 Texas Southern football recruiting class stands at 15 student-athletes as the Tigers signed eight during the December period.
