LEBANON, Tenn.--Cumberland University football coach Tim Mathis and the football program has had another successful National Signing Day, securing a promising group of signees to bolster their roster for the upcoming seasons. The signees bring a diverse set of skills and talents, representing various positions on the field.
The 2024 class stands as the seventh with Mathis at the helm of the program and his sixth full class. The Phoenix added 20 new players to the roster with 13 players coming from Tennessee. Four players come in from Georgia and three more were added from the state of Alabama.
Mathis and the staff are even more excited about the talent-level of the athletes they brought in to piggy-back off of this past class. "We have a lot of guys returning, so we are fortunate to not have to go and get a lot of guys, but we are excited about the young men we have coming in. We have followed up last years class with another strong class. We have some real high quality young men signing with us and we will have several more we will add that will make this class unbelievable."
The additions of these talented players provide Cumberland University with depth and skill across various positions, ensuring a competitive edge in the upcoming seasons. The coaching staff looks forward to integrating these new signees into the team and working towards a successful future on the football field.
