Congrats to RRod and the rest of the UA staff............UA vs Udub for top west coast talent has historically been a losing proposition for the Cats.

I remember RR saying recruiting had changed after they beat Oregon in Autzen. Guess he wasn't kidding.

Uw fans are salty about it on their 247 message board. Calling the kid a liar and that they don't want him anyway for leading uw on and that Arizona makes no sense and why would anyone commit there.

When they held on the wide shot of him in the studio, you could see the red brim of the hat peeking out from the bag. Which made watching it a little easier.

Hopefully his commitment sticks. The ASU people are pointing out the fact that he is still scheduled for an official visit there soon.

From reading those in the know elsewhere, him flipping seems incredibly unlikely.

Still, it's scary knowing other schools are pampering him in their own facilities. Although if I were him I'd still do the same thing, even if I was 100% committed to another school. I love me some free food.

Scheer said he doubts the kid takes anymore visits as he's not that kind of kid. I thought we couldn't get the poly kids anymore since we didn't have any poly coaches. ;)

Holy Cow what a pick-up,

This kid starts at OG from day one once he arrives.

It will be interesting to see which other OL drop off the board now that the big Poly is ours.

He's not an OL but he certainly doesn't mince words when talking about his buddy. UA wants him at LB while the Utes want him to play QB.

It will be interesting to see what happens. Most OL sit out a year because they don't have the strength required to play the position. The thing with Poly kids is they're naturally strong to begin with. It will be interesting to see how that plays out.

I don't know where the hell I've been because I had no idea he was recruited to play defense. Damn I thought the kid was going to play on the OL.

Thanks for the correction. He going to be a good one.

Eletise is going to play OG - my post was in regards to Neves not playing OL but tweeting that Eletise was one of his best teammates ever. I apologize if my post regarding the two didn't make sense.

He's going to probably need a RS year unless those guys are JAGs

Big time pick up in what is looking like a great potential top 25 class. Recruiting the west so well too especially SoCal. Makes me wonder why we couldn't do the same thing last year?

I know all you hate when I bitch about the 2015 class but this class just seems so much better and the type of class we should always strive for outside of wanting to get a couple more in state guys to prove we can attract top Phoenix area talent. We get Lucas and Harry then this class could be the best we have ever signed if all current commits stay in place.

This OL looks like a BEAST
