Cali High Sports' #10 prospect for 2011: http://www.calihighsports.com/articles/98
At 6'2 325 (and still growing) it would be hard to tell Moala apart from some NFL nose guards in a lineup. And Moala isn't just a big dude, he knows how to play and how to use his size to his advantage.Moala is so quick that it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility for him to see time at defensive end. He has great footwork and is overall a very solid, fundamental lineman and could be used at different positions along the line to wear down the whole offensive line.

Moala made Tom Lemming's Top 100 there.
Definitely a prospect that the new coaching staff needs to target on the DL.
US Army All-American.
Hopefully we land Tuiasosopo for the staff. That would help.
i noticed he was recruited by AZ.. hmmm.
Damn, that's a big boy. Would love to see him in Black and Gold.

must. have.
We should have listened to Colorado fans.
I would love to have a big, giant DT. Hope we can land him!
FWIW, Grant is one of the better teams in California (#58 in Rivals High School rankings). Several high-level Division 1 prospects too, including possible 5* junior Shaq Thompson.
Must have ginormous Polynesian now!
damn he has NFL size already.
I've seen this kid play, as I live in the Sacramento area. He could probably start day 1 for the Buffs and he isn't even the best player on Grant's squad. Shaq Thompson is. His borther Syd'Quan of course plays for the Broncos and played collegiately at Cal. I saw a game against Folsom HS to start the season (they since lost to Folsom in the playoffs) and Shaq rushed for 100 yds and a TD, caught one, threw one, and also had an interception. It was one of the most brilliant games i've ever seen a HS player have.
