YPSILANTI, Mich. (WXYZ) -- Eastern Michigan head coach Chris Creighton went international when compiling his 2017 recruiting class.
The 26-player class consists of players from twelve different states, plus Canada and Finland.
"Today is the culmination of a very long process of identifying, evaluating, building relationships and ultimately inviting guys to be a part of Eastern Michigan football," Creighton said in a release. "I have always evaluated a class after they have finished their careers but going into it we are excited about this group. We have both built for the future and brought in guys who will compete to play right away."
