"National Signing Day is always a huge day in college football," said Parker. "Our staff did an excellent job of evaluating, recruiting and signing a very high quality 2020 class. We met and exceeded all of our recruiting goals during this cycle. We were able to do an exceptional job in the State of Virginia with 13 of the 20 signees coming from the state. We were also able to grab some talent from other states, with three coming from Maryland, two coming from D.C., one coming from North Carolina and one coming from Georgia. We have forged some great relationships with the new student-athletes and their families and we can't wait to get them on campus for the upcoming season."
