How does this kid rate vs. the big hitters of last year (Taki, Togiai and Tuli)?

TIA. Here's some tits for your trouble.

    For our defense I would put him below Tuli and Togiai. Above Taki.

    He may end up on offense, though. The pic of him with Huff and some “inside info” that is actually inside info but, for all intents and purposes, is just the photo of him with Huff—says we are looking at him as a G.

    However, I have to think that he’s somewhat of a swing guy. If we get a bunch of great OLs I think we might stick him on DL.

    It seems like we are about to be eliminated from consideration for Tuitele, so there’s that, too.

    Eliminated for Tuitlele? Already?!?! Any reason why?

    He's announcing his top 5 soon and Dennis would rather end all hope now than get a hat on the table.


















    We're getting a hat on the table.

    PITY HAT!!!!

    The smart money is that he will be an "inferior athlete that outsmarts everyone"
    Oh! Has anybody made this phrase into an acronym yet? ...IATOE

    In before anybody else does.

    I don't know ... but my thinking is this:

    - Tuitele likes UW
    - he's getting the love from all the major programs
    - we just took paama and will probably take 1 more? 2? that means the other guys like ika, jernigan, pola-mao (probably usc) and bandes ... among others.
    - i'm thinking our system doesn't traditionally appeal to d-line tackle recruits because of the "hold the gaps, soak up double teams etc ..." a guy like Tuitele with that rare combo of power and mobility may think twice and buy what the likes of Alabama are selling.

    wild card: Vea gets drafted in the first 12 picks ... that's a big deal to recruits, especially Poly recruits.

    But, if we get Tuitele to visit then we have a legit shot imo.

    Just did a little Tbsing and it seems that we are still in the running.

    He even retweeted sama paama's commitment.

    His interview in LA he said he loved malloe.

    Holding gaps, soaking up double teams, etc., is exactly what interior DL do at Alabama, too.
