Top 10 In-State Recruits
Kevan Bills, Timpview (BYU)
"You can't block him. At least we couldn't. He runs well, is physical and has the physique to be a college player. What I like about him most is how he plays with a mean streak."
Mountain View High coach Teko Johnson
Austin Holt, Bingham (BYU)
"Everyone knows he's a big, tall receiver and has great hands, but what gave us fits was his great blocking ability. He really set the tone for their running game. His best attribute was his strength and blocking ability."
Alta High coach Les Hamilton
Lynn Katoa, Cottonwood (Colorado)
"Offensively, we've always had to account for him. In our opinion as a staff, he was the most dominant player on Cottonwood's team. He's a very cordial young man. It's my opinion he'll make an impact at the next level. He's a very good athlete."
East High coach Aaron Whitehead
Dave Kruger, Timpanogos (Utah)
Timpanogos High coach Dale Sampson
Jake Murphy, American Fork (BYU)
"I'm just impressed with how he's such a great athlete. He's such a good athlete that I think he could play either side of the ball at the D-I level. But what I really like about him most is how he attacks the ball. It doesn't seem to matter where they throw it, he has the ability to go up and come down with the ball."
Timpanogos High coach Brad Molen
Garett Nicholson, West (BYU)
"His athleticism, we definitely had to prepare for that. When he got the ball he was one of the best athletes we'd seen all year. He was such a threat out of the backfield and on special teams. He affected all aspects of the game, but I think he'll have to grow a little bit ... at the next level."
Highland High coach Brody Benson
Sausan Shakerin, Alta (Utah)
