MAGNOLIA, Ark. – The Southern Arkansas University Mulerider football team enjoyed a successful National Signing Day as head football coach Bill Keopple announced a signing class of 29 new Muleriders for the 2015 season.
“I am ecstatic of the caliber of the players that we were able to attract into our football program and to add them into what we already have here on campus,” remarked Coach Keopple. “I am very excited about this group and am also very excited about being able to get in to North Louisiana and bringing in our largest group of players from that state. We were also able to get some difference makers from the Central Arkansas area, which is huge for us.
“Overall, I am very pleased with this class and am anxious to get them on campus and looking forward to seeing what the future holds for Southern Arkansas football,” concluded Keopple.
