Prairie View picked up 14 players.
PVAM coach Heishma Northern said they addressed needs at defensive tackle and linebacker, while leaving room to add players later.
Among the new Panthers are Eisenhower wide receiver Rayshawn Givins (6-2, 185) and Yates running back
Arthur Lockett (5-9, 170).
"We're going to put the ball in (Lockett's) hands as many ways as possible," Northern said. "He's a very outstanding young man, very good football player, (and) was up for a few awards in the city of Houston.
"
He's a little bit under-sized, but in our offense he's going to be perfect."
All three schools still have needs to fill and are holding out hope of adding players who went unsigned Wednesday.
Prairie View lost a couple quarterbacks it hoped to sign and also needs a cornerback. TSU is looking for receivers and a DB, and Fritz said SHSU may look at junior colleges to add skill players.
"
A lot of these Texas kids go outside the state, and after the allure of the size of the stadium and those kinds of things wear off, they're still 1,000 miles from home and they want to come on back," Fritz said.
"We'll probably take three or four transfer kids when it's all said and done."
