      He's teammates with Michael Walker, who has signed an LOI. I don't know what the hold-up is.

        They need him to hold up. He might be the top guy in the class.

          Texas A&M was rumored to be close to swaying him. Maybe they're putting on the full-court press in the 11th hour with the bases loaded in game 7 of the stanley cup finals.

            That wouldn't be good for this Ute class.

              Jeremy Crabtree, the rivals bigwig, reports that John Cullen's HS coach indicates he will sign with Utah.

                Did Utah just lose Avery Williams to West Virginia?

                That isn't good.

                  The rivals guys are saying he has a unique academic situation, and it's likely he'll never play football regardless of where he signs.

                  He was supposed to be an early enrollee, so when he wasn't inked a month ago, a lot of people reduced the probability of him playing for the Utes.

                  He would've been a nice asset, and it's a bad omen with Reese still looming.

                    Fehoko

                    11:25 a.m. -- LB Fehoko spurns Hawaii for Utah


                    SI.com contributor Kristian Dyer passes along the following update on Honolulu linebacker V.J. Fehoko:

                    Fehoko, the top recruit in Hawaii, will sign with Utah in a Signing Day event this afternoon. Fehoko was the state's lone representative in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. His brother, Sam Fehoko, is a linebacker for Texas Tech.

                    "Utah is a team that could win the National Championship while I am there," Fehoko said. "I believe that I am destined for greatness and the Utes coaching staff will help me pave that pathway."

                    Part of the tipping point for Fehoko was the large number of Polynesian students enrolled at Utah, in addition to the strength of the communications program on the academic side. Fehoko also held offers from BYU, California, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Oklahoma and Tennessee.

                    His father is Vili the Warrior, the famed sideline presence at Hawaii football games. V.J. said that there was hope he'd stay home and play at Hawaii.

                    "Both dad and mom are doubly heartbroken," V.J. Fehoko said. "They have waited for one of their three sons stay home and I am getting love and support from my family including my brother Sam at Texas Tech.

                    "Dad is now calling out the Utes to schedule a game in his backyard."

                        I am not going to buy into that spin. If he signed with West Virginia then there is a chance.

                        As long as a kid can get cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse then Utah will get him in.

                          That is just spin, then why go after Unufe, Tanoa'i or any others? They are in the same situation.

                            He says academics is more important to him than athletics when choosing a school, which makes his decision to choose Utah over Vanderbilt and Wake Forest that much more significant.
                            Which makes his statement that academics is much more important much more suspect.

                              He actually ended up at Miss St.

                                They just have poor grades. The impression I get is Avery's situation is much more complicated.
