RENO, Nev. – The University of Nevada football team will add six players to its roster for the spring semester, head coach Chris Ault announced Wednesday, the first day of the mid-year signing period.
Five of the players are high school products who have delayed enrollment until the spring semester and the sixth is a freshman transfer from the junior college ranks.
“This is a good group of athletes and we will benefit from having them in winter conditioning and spring football,” Ault said.
The group includes a pair of offensive linemen in Connor Talbott (Reno, Nev.) and Sebastian Tretola (San Bernardino, Calif.), two players who signed in February but delayed enrollment until the spring semester begins next month. Two defensive linemen are in the group in Zack Brickell (Fallbrook, Calif.) and Rykeem Yates (Fresno, Calif.).
Ryan Goforth (Long Beach, Calif.), a product of the same high school program as Wolf Pack receiver Tray Session, will join the defensive backfield. The lone juco product is Jon McNeal, a standout from Santa Monica (Calif.) Junior College who will join the Pack with three years of eligibility remaining.
