Articles are 2-3 months old, but it sounds like Utah and Hawaii will be tough to beat. He's from Utah and he also is married with 3 kids (wife and kids are in Hawaii). Junior Salt is his teammate and they both seem to be Ute leans. Would love to have them both. Hopefully we can pull something off here.

I'm disappointed we're not bringing in any JUCO DL

Saw on rivals that a "Buff Pledge is looking around". Anyone know who they are talking about?

Manaea, the safety recruit is probably who you are asking about. Check out his thread for more.

Can't get them in very easily.

You sure?

Possibly, could be mistaken.

Tini speaks from on high, and we are but lucky to listen to his semi-wisdom.

Damn straight.

It was a joke. I think everyone knows we have issues getting JUCO players into school.

At the same time, I do not disagree with Slider. Breslin was the guy we honed in on and regardless of how exactly everything transpired, it was disappointing to see him sign with USC yesterday. There are going to be a lot of growing pains next season along the DL.

I know, I was just responding as a cheeky bastard.

The ability to get JuCo's in would be fantastic and would speed up this rebuilding process a lot, but I blame dply.
