“We’ve been recruiting this class for two years. Most of them came to our camps, so we know about them. We evaluated them. We’re around them personally, watch them work athletically. Now the group next year will have a chance to be better because we’ve been recruiting them for three years. It’s a three-year cycle. Now this being our third year, from now on we’ll have three years of information on the kids that we recruit, three years of watching them work out, going to practices, watching their games.”

I’m just thrilled they allowed me to build a relationship with them in the short period of time we were provided to establish a new era of Houston Football.”

“I’m excited about this signing class. Obviously, there is a lot of balance in it. From just a pure numbers standpoint, I think we helped ourselves with the kids and the type of players that we brought in. We needed to make a big charge in our skill position areas. We have been trying the best we can to plan for this day ahead of time. I’m proud of the kind of regional diversity we have in this class. Obviously, we want to do a great job here locally. We’re basically recruiting throughout the southeast part of the United States. I think some of our work in Alabama paid dividends this year along with some of our local work.”

“The Temple T really traveled well for us. As we went around the country, we have found that the university has become a national brand. We still stayed true to our roots, but with the new landscape and our ability to travel and so many people seeing us play, we went a little bit more national. For us to compete at a high level, we had to get the best 25 guys we could, and I think we did so.”

“I said from my very first day here that we wanted to declare this `The State of Tulane,'" Johnson said. "We made it a point to keep the local talent here in New Orleans to not only create a great atmosphere on game day but also to build a foundation for a winning tradition. We've been doing this for four years now and the inroads we've made as a staff with the state's high school head coaches is paying off. Some of these kids were recruited by some big-time schools, we're glad to have them and I look forward to seeing them in action when we start preseason camp in August.”

“As we looked at our roster when I first got here and we were looking at areas of concern, we had some depth issues in some certain spots, and in our signing class we tried to address those, especially in the back seven defensively. You see several secondary guys on there, trying to provide depth, length, speed back there. We did it in a hurry but we’re excited about those additions. Then, when you start talking about the two quarterbacks that we added, you’ve got a great All American in there, and you’ve got the No. 9 dual-threat quarterback. So we feel like we attacked and saw some issues. We are excited about them getting on campus”
- Head Coach Philip Montgomery
