Recruting update

DE Anthony Smith from Desert Pines number 1 ranked player from nevada has committed to Colorado state

If he was a RB going to a rival school I'd be more concerned.

Side note - when I inputted "RB" initially spell check changed it to "Arab". Thank God I caught that!!!

Spell check is sneaky racist and filthy minded.

Would have liked to have landed this kid.

 

[rebelbuck]

He was coming off an ACL injury. Was hurt just before the season started.

I think , especially at DE ,we need more immediate help. Would have loved to keep him in Vegas though.

 

[bcvegaspt]

Unless I'm wrong I don't think he ever seriously considered us.
Obviously our local recruiting is improving and will continue to improve, in my opinion, under Sanchez, et al. I agree that we could use players like him in the future but I think we'll find them.

I really like Pritchard. He fills a future need at LB as after the 2016 season we will lose 3 SRs (Lotulelei, Langham, MacAleenan ) .

 

[RebelinWA]

Will, solid post. I think Clayton, if trained properly has NFL talent.

I ll add a different type of local to that post. Under/ not recruited due to injury, with deep unlv ties. I think he would make for a good safety.

How the heck is Devion Clayton not signed. Upside alone.

Would have loved to watch him play DB.

Seems odd his only offers are from Weber State, Southern Utah and another FCS program.

His size speed ratio alone makes him seemingly a no brainer.

Has to be a reason he isn't drawing more interest.

 

[RebelinWA]

I can see why unlv isn't going hard after him, he seems to be like RCII and wants to do football and track

Yep. No men's track at UNLV.

 

[rebelbuck]

RCII was always going to be a track first guy. I dont see him returning to the football field.
