South Alabama has closed its 2013 signing class on a good
note. And this class of 2013 I call a strong one for the South Alabama Jaguars.
There were many needs on this squad, and Joey Jones and his staff have found
those answers. Kaleb Blanchard leads the
2013 class as the Jaguars top recruit.
I am proud to say that this is the best class of signee's
since the new football program has signed. Coach Joey Jones has worked hard to
bring in talented JUCO’s and High School players this year, which should be
ready to start this fall after they prove themselves capable and ready. South Alabama is bringing in a class that
will be able to play hard, and help the Jaguars win their first conference
title and even make a post season bowl game for the first time in the program
history.
Let’s take a look at what South Alabama has brought on board
to the Jaguars squad in 2013.

Among the 2013 signing class is Noah Armstrong, Tevaris
McCormick, Caleb Alves who also highlights the2013 signing class on offense. The
Jaguars also signed Xavier Johnson and Brett Sheehan a quarterback. South Alabama got two JUCO running backs transfers
in Jay Jones and Cristobal Dinham.
Roman Buchanan, Devonta
Staples, and Jalen Wells also joins the class of 2013 recruits. Many of these
recruits will get plenty of reps in the upcoming spring and fall practices. I
am really proud of this signing class.
