Utah Recruiting

[USUC]

So who is left for Utah? I've seen a ton of chest-thumping about this class, but Scout ranks it #49 right now. Surely there's something yet to come to justify all the noise?

Last time I checked Rivals had it at #33. Its middle of the road for PAC schools but second only to TCU among non AQs.

His family laughed when he dumped the Utah hat and the host said "really?" when he picked it up.

This is the defining post for oxcoug. It will follow him to his grave:

I for one hope oxcoug never dies.

Utah is #6 in the Pac 12, a very respectable debut.

Eubank: How low rent is that?

What a jerk.

Why can't you just pick a hat? Why do you have to soundly reject some other school that was second place on your list?

Sheesh. Kids nowdays--its all about them. This signing theatrics makes bridezillas look like humanitarians.

Weird, I thought it was December already when I read that.

A year ago our hat would not have been on the table. He respected us by picking it up first.

BTW, eubank is only an ESPN 76, Pedroza is an 80 like Heaps was.

Also, on the radio this morning the KJR guys dissed Derek Brown as a "project quarterback". I suspect Eubank is similar. The love affair with him is that he reminds people of Cam Newton in his build and duo qb label. My guess the true comparison ends there. Seriously, if there is a program in a death spiral it's ASU. Ranked 11 in Pac 12 recruiting this year. Erickson is over the hill. Speaks volumes that he took ASU.

I think Tyler Shreve is our future.

You are quoting Softy as a source? Don't go to trial with that. He was the guy that said Washington pulled their offer on Jonathan Stewart because he didn't grade out high enough.

Stick with the national stuff.

3D, looks like the Utes decided on Pedroza instead of Pomee. Pedroza is rated higher.

Also, USC can have Pomee's 75 rated side-kick

I love SU in this thread. Blatant disrespect by Eubank is interpreted as respect, lots of "We didn't want them anyway," lots of moral victories.

Did Utah really not sign a quarterback in this class? Yikes. Putting all your eggs in the coach beaters basket.

I won't sugarcoat it. We have 3 guys who can start, so a project quarterback like Eubank or Brown would have been a nice luxury. Still a more than respectable pac 12 debut, though. I'm satisfied.

Pomee is great for SC right now. an athletic TE that can catch the ball like a WR. I agree that the Utes decided on Pedroza over Pomee, in the same spirit that the PAC 10 decided on Utah over Texas and Oklahoma.
