Broncos sign five mid-year enrollees

Boise State is no stranger to mid-year transfers and early enrollees, but it’s certainly been a spell since they signed this many on the first day of the early signing period. Officially, midyear transfers from the JuCo ranks and early high school grads can sign any time between today and January 14th, although school starts again in earnest on the 9th, so signing after that would be rather fruitless. As we noted earlier today, OT Zach Troughton was the first to send in his John Hancock (or was it Herbie) and become a Bronco and shortly thereafter, DB Michael Young hopped aboard—adding some nice safety and/or corner depth in time for Spring Ball. Then, roundabout 1 o'clock...the Broncos weekend JC QB commit Rathen Ricedorff made things official and will reportedly be moving to Boise this weekend (hope he has a coat).

So, there's your JuCo signees now sealed and delivered—how about those greenshirts? DB Marques Evans was the first early grad to sign on the dotted line, joining fellow teammates like Dylan Sumner-Gardner, Brett Rypien, Kole Bailey, and Tyson Maeva

...and now local OT commit (and MASSIVE human) John Ojukwu.

That's a heaping helping of new Broncos that we'll get to see sooner than later and all but maybe Ojukwu are expected at least flirt with the depth chart. Welcome, new Broncos—young and old.
