Not sure that this is all the right info. Some sites show Tennessee Pututau as a DE and Taniela Pututau as a WR along with a brother, Fua Pututau on the team. Other's have Tennessee and Taniela as the same person.

Two different twitter accounts too:
Claiming the offer: https://NOPE/Pu2tau
Retweeting the offer: https://NOPE/taniela_5

Near as I can tell, Taniela is a Junior WR while Tennessee is a Sophmore DE/DT. I'll update this as soon as I get some more info.

Looking at his twitter a little more, I think the young man offered is Tennessee, actually the sophomore DE/ DT, so is potentially a 2018 class player. (http://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/tennessee-pututau/0aATsUUoEeW-8KA2nzwbTA/default.htm. Sorry, I had the wrong maxpreps link in the general notes thread.) Also, in his twitter summary he does have "mission bound #LDS", so assume there's a possibility he could arrive at college even later than 2018.

Being that it's Tennessee Pututau, there isn't much information out there on him yet that I can find.

Will one of the mods please adjust the title of this to reflect him as '18 UT DE?

Just as a side note, Pookie Maka is also playing for cottonwood this season.
 

(Note to mods. I think we're still believing the 1st name in the thread title should be changed to Tennessee. Also, both based on the above tweet and Maxpreps, looks he's a 2018 class player rather than 2017. Also, Maxpreps lists him as a DE, DT, OLB rather than a WR.))
 
Oh well- maybe we can just keep this thread as Taniela's, as it sounds like the Buffs have just offered him! (We still need a thread for 2018 offer Tennessee, however.)

 
That's great size for a safety and to have ball in the air skills to go with it... Want him in black and gold.
 
Hopefully, he's taking a hard look at becoming a Buff. These are great coaches and CU is a great place for a kid like this from Utah.
