HUGE gets. Also shows us that the RB position needs a shot in the arm. Kinikini is such a versatile athlete. He could come in and play a few positions. Not sure, but I'm assuming he might be a mission kid? Really hope the coaches are spending a lot of time in Utah. So much talent in the state right now. Hoping to see 2 to 4 OL in the early signing period.

Early signing period is over and We have signed 9 HS players. We also have a punter committed, a walk on 3* transfer WR, and a 3* OL transfer committed. Of the HS players one is a 3* lb, one is a 3* WR, two are 3* RBs, and one is a 3* DB with 4.3 speed. The rest are highly reguarded and heavily recruited players. This is the most we have ever signed in the early period. We will likely sign 15 to 20 players in February.
Between now and February we will be looking at transfer players and HS players who may have been overlooked in the early signing period. In the past several years we have done well with this recruiting strategy.
The WRs we have brought in will replace those we lost. That room should look quite similar to last season. The 3 RBs we have brought in look to have great potential and will solidify the needed depth in that room. The LB we brought in from Northridge High looks to have really good potential and likewise the DE from Sugar City, Idaho. The DBs we have signed all look like they can help the depth in that room and a couple of them may compete for good minutes.
For February's signing, I think we will see an emphasis on OLs, DLs, DBs, LBs, and TEs. All of those positions need to be fortified and have depth built.
As long as all of our QBs come back, we should be okay there. However, we may see a HS QB brought in for the future. You always need 4 or 5 in that room.
I also expect to see another large contingent of walk on players.
What happens between now and July will determine how next fall will go. It's all about getting the players and developing them.

He was a 3* dual threat QB coming out of HS. He should have 3 years left to play. He is a good enough athlete to play multiple positions. On O, I could see him as a QB, a WR, or a RB. On D, he could be a CB or a S. He could be a holder for kicks or play in the return game. He is an athlete. He is the sort of transfer that you would want to get. Our most recent All American kick returner came out of HS as a duel threat QB. You never know how these things might work out.The Dan said:
We are now less than a month from the regular signing period for football. I expect that the emphasis is still on getting quality HS players. Although, there could be a transfer or two that could help us.
