We went from being like one of the shortest WR's group to being one of the biggest.
McGriff - 6'6"
Tia - 6'4"
Cobbs-6'2"
Williams-6'1"
Nance-6'1"
Patrick - 6'
KVL- 5'9"
Davis-5'8"
I know that forgot to add some names, but I just giving a quick summary of the position.
So McGriff is sticking around, correct? I hope he stays, this group will be awesome!
McGriff stays.

Awesome to hear this.

Heard from someone up there that knows him and the program very well. Said he’s an absolute steal of a PWO, he’s a huge weight room guy and said he believes Ellis will earn a scholarship hes too good to go unnoticed.

So where else do we need immediate help? DL? LB?

I think LB is where we are thin. DT seems to be pretty solid 2-3 deep. DE could use some depth but the top guys look real good (although replacing Heninger won't be easy). I would like to see at least one more LB come in and push for playing time. Where are we with schollies?

I think we are real close to staying put with what we have. I haven't heard any talk about adding a linebacker.

That tells me the coaches are comfortable with some of the young guys. That’s a good sign.

We are at the point where any additional players added MUST be standouts and potential difference makers.

A reliable field goal kicker. I really hope the coaching staff doesn't ignore this.

Word I got is he played mostly LB. Some DE. Carried the rock a bit too. One of the 4A schools in central WA got worked pretty decent by his little ol’ 2A School this spring. Supposed to have a good streak of nasty in him with a chip on his shoulder. I’ll bet he fits in well at USU.

I like how he catches the ball with his hands away from his body. Seems to high point real well too.

Hard to find anything on him. Seems there is a 247 profile but it says he is in Florida and a 2024 HS class but then everything else says he is in Cali and 2022 class?

According to what he posted on his Twitter, he has great stats his senior year. I've gotta believe he's a PWO though as his only offers were D2

Senior stats 10 games (55 recs 1005 yards 12 TDS) average 100.5 yards a game and 18.3 yards per catch.

•2022 Grad Orange Glen High School

I’m ok with that. Long and fluid athlete with good skills. Seems to have good hands and play making instincts. Nice under the radar pickup with a high upside. He can grow in our system for a year or two and then be ready to contribute.

I love our Utah/poly commits and all of our transfer commits a ton, but I hope our coaches are just better talent evaluators than every other D1 program when it comes to the non-Utah/poly high school kids we are bringing in. The coaches have done enough to earn the benefit of the doubt, but I won’t lie and say I’m not a little concerned with the overall quality (on paper) of the non-Utah/non-poly parts of our high school class.

I think those are valid concerns. Obviously the coaching staff has shown they can bring in transfer talent to compete and make an impact. They have also shown the ability to coach well and make good decisions, but time will tell if their high school recruiting was spot on.

Idk why people worry so much about this... How many offers did the vigil brothers have?! I know they were from Utah but still, and then Bobby Wagner??? What about Chuckie keeton??? Jalen Davis... We were his only D1 offer and look at what he did. I don't care about paper and offers from other schools. If our coaches think they can develop them then I'm sure they can develop them

Yeah if this was a Gary2.0 commit I would be more concerned. But this coaching staff has so far shown that they know what they are doing.

The guy is 6-2 and looks pretty quick and looks to have decent hands. Even if he has some other deficiencies in his game I think he may be worth the risk.

I think you have Gary 2.0 PTSD...but to be fair, there is no sample to draw from yet. The only non-transfer out of state non-poly HS guy we took last year was NyNy and it is way to early to draw any conclusions there.

https://247sports.com/college/utah-stat ... l/Commits/

Gates is listed as HS, but he was essentially a xfer from BC.

Anyway, we don't know how these coaches will do in this category, but their xfers imply they know how to evaluate talent

Funny thing about life, you're good at something and work your (I can't express myself without swearing) off doing it, you're going to be first in a lot of things. I'm not worried about who hasn't offered a kid or what they look like on paper, they've proven they can coach and they've proven they can get kids in the door... two big pieces of the puzzle, I'll assume they can recruit quality, until proven otherwise.

CoAches are paid to win game and if NOT a single one recognizes a players talent, that’s sometimes a good indicator. There are diamonds in the rough but you don’t to have 85 players that not another coach wanted and expect to win games.

Another point, you have to think the high school talent market has been depressed somewhat by the transfer portal. More kids are flying under the radar than in years past.
