SAN ANTONIO — UTSA head football coach Jeff Traylor announced that the program has added Daron Allman, a transfer All-America linebacker from Angelo State, to the 2023 signing class.
Allman earned first-team All-America, all-region and all-conference honors in 2022 after he recorded 65 total tackles, 15 tackles for loss, seven sacks, four quarterback hurries, one interception, one fumble recovery and a forced fumble. A product of Killeen Shoemaker High School, he tallied 34 tackles for loss over the past two seasons for the Rams.
UTSA's 2023 class now numbers 26, including 18 who hail from Texas with seven from the Greater Houston Area, five from East Texas and three apiece from the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and Central Texas. There are two signees from Georgia and one each from Alabama, Hawai'i, Louisiana, Mississippi and Pennsylvania, as well as the program's first player from American Samoa.
The group features an even split of 13 who come from the high school ranks and 13 transfers. Of the transfers, five are moving to San Antonio from an FBS, FCS or NCAA Division II program while eight last played at a junior college.
Fifteen members of the class are offensive players, while 11 are pegged for the defensive side of the ball.
