As National Signing Day approaches, the "NeuEra" hashtag has become popular among Ball State football coaches.
The Ball State football coaching staff will host a free Signing Day event on Feb. 3 in Worthen Arena, inside the Cardinal Club Room.
While the official list of signings has not been announced, Ball State football coaches have made their excitement known through Twitter.
Several mentions have come from offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Joey Lynch.
