Comments about ‘Kaufusi still living the D-I recruit dream’

Go Utes, beat the Cewgs. Kaufusi's are all great players and even though he lived out of the boundaries when going to Catenwood he was groomed for this and I'm stoked!

Colorado, OSU X2 as we all know, are well-known powerhouses.

There is way too much hype with recruits. Show us you deserve to be on the field by a good performance. Some schools have top recruiting #'s in the nation, but still don't produce conference championships often, or even close sometimes.

of luck to Keni at Utah. We are very proud of you. Now keep your priorities straight. Play hard and study hard...

He will be playing serious minutes for Utah THIS year. Go Keni! Go Utes!

Go Gary! Good to keep the Kaufusi lineage running through Utah.

Regarding Powerhouses comments; what are you talking about? Colorado and OSU are in a BCS conference, but they are by no means powerhouses. Utah has had much greater success, especially in bowl games, over the last 20 years than either of those schools. Although many recruits don't always pan out, recruiting is very important to a program. Especially quality local kids.

What a recruiting year, This makes 2 of the best players in the state that have been signed by Utah after the letter of intent day.The other being defensive player of the year Boo Anderson. Utah doesn't give up on kids-what a great story. Go UTES

Hey Cuz,

I agree with you, but let's keep it very straight forward for Keni...

Keni, please study hard and play hard...

Good luck @ Utah!

Both Jordan and I wish you great luck. What a blessing to continue your education at such a wonderful University. Take advantage and have a great time with football. I hope that your brother is blocking you sometime soon, during a late-November game... :-)

What a great way for the Utes to finish up the 2008 recruiting class with a Big Time Recruit. Good luck Keni and GO UTES!!

Great job son ..............we are all very proud of you.

We will really enjoy you getting after it in late August against Mich. in the BIG HOUSE

Always your family

I just have one question. How many Kaufusi family members are there. It seems like there has been about ten between BYU and Utah already. Then this kid. BYU has a commit from one of them. I wonder if this blood line is ever going to end. Lets hope not they are a good athletes. Keep pumping out football players.

Congrats to Keni. What an inspiring story of determination and hard work. I'd root for this kid no matter what team he played for (other than BYU).

Keep up the hard work in school and football during college.

Keni would be the first of the NEXT generation of Kaufusi's. There are many others coming as well, PLUS all the "Kaufusi women" whose kids' married last names you won't recognize as easily.

You will know them once they put the pads on though. There are several more 'Kaufusi kids' at Cottonwood alone.

You've made the greatest choice of your life choosing to go to such a quality school. Keep up the hard work. We're all rooting for you, son.

athletes have a chance to go to a power school and they choose to stay at home. I would like to see more Utah athletes venture out of this state.

Congrats to Keni for finishing up all loose ends academically. Good luck at the U and wish you all the best except when you play the Cougs!

Good for him. I'd like to see more good Utah high school prospects stay in state.

Congratulations to Keni and a big "way to go" to Steve and his wife for providing this fine young man the opportunity to turn his life around.

I wish that all of this could have happened with the Cougars, but it's far more important that Keni is now taking advantage of his talents and potential in and out of the classroom. GREAT JOB and very best wishes!

I hope there are hundreds of Kafusi' It improves our school and adds to greater diversity and sportsmanship. Go.
