The DVC signing list includes DL Chris Mulumba (Central Florida); DL Franklin Uesi (Texas-San Antonio); DL Ashton Smith (Missouri S&T); LB Kory Lamberts (Middle Tennessee State); WR Marcus Amstrong-Brown (Hawaii), CJ Cornwell (Midwestern State); FB Catlin Keeler.(Henderson State); OL Keenan Mahler (South Dakota School of Mines).
WR Dimitri Salido is headed to Utah as a preferred walk-on.
DVC football coach Mike Darr said Mulumba, of Vantaa, Finland, an unblock-able force last season, had a "whirlwind" recruiting tour. He turned down a late offer from Illinois to stick with UCF.
"It's tough for a guy from Finland to pass up on the beach!" Darr joked of the athletic 6-foot-4, 270-pound lineman.
