Interesting tidbit from the doogman recruiting blog. Eklund thinks we would be in a really good spot if we offered.

I Eklund speak "in a really good spot" = "doing really well with" = "I have no clue"
-
Remember when we'd be in really good shape with 4 and 5 stars if we offered?
-
Ben Roberts?
Is he some cross between Ben Hines and Henry Roberts? -
Thankfuly not what I expected Ben Roberts from Utah to look like.

Our annual 3 star from East that turns out to be a monster

East is our minor league defensive tackle farm system.

Lolohea (2017) and Tunuufi (2021) are the only 3*s we've gotten from East.bananasnblondes said:

Taki has been average at best. I’ve honestly been disappointed.Quietcowskee said:

Bandes looked terrible last year too. Utah pushed him back nearly 20 yards on a play I watched.
Malloe had some good years developing the DT’s, but despite having all four star players at DT, we have gotten much worse the past two years inside. That’s to be expected after Vea and Gaines, and not having Levi last year hurt, but the DL has to get better. -
Taki was a 4* out of EastQuietcowskee said:

Be curious what Rip Rowan brings to DT now that he's their coach.RoadDawg55 said:

I never saw Brandes. I saw Taki making plays though. He's explosive as fuck. He's coming along. He was never going to be Vea or even Gaines, but he's somewhere in between and can be really good. Tuli and Tuitele are going to be the best two DL this season, I think. Taki is a good rotational player.RoadDawg55 said:

I don’t really remember Taki doing much. Tuli flashed a little his R-FR season. Taki has been jag.chuck said:

I had forgotten Malloe was no longer the DL coach until you mentioned Rowan.whatshouldicareabout said:

247 article from some camp
Alpha Dog
There might not have been a more impressive athlete than Ben Roberts in the entire event. The freakish defensive tackle from Salt Lake City (Utah) East caught everything thrown his way during the 7on7 portion and then dominated one-on-one battles in the linemen challenge. Roberts flashed a quick first step and powerful counter moves to get past would-be blockers. The No. 6 overall prospect in the state of Utah for the 2022 class, Roberts made a statement and could be worthy of a move up the charts
