Word is we crushed this one.  

Got his parents over here from New Zealand - dad had never been in the States before.

He is visiting Oregon State this weekend.

Now an OSU commit. Wonder if we didn’t give him the green light.

Well, Utu is trending hard to Tennessee now. Gonna have to really put in work to land some of these bigger fish

I was referring to OL in general

Regardless - no way we didn't give him the green light - we didn't fly his parents all the way from NZ for nothing

I’m so confused on this one! What happened here? Nebraska was where he seemed to wanna be. You’re telling me Oregon State wowed him more than what Nebraska has to offer across the board? Just odd!

I'm guessing we told him that he was a plan B, so he committed elsewhere. Not like he had any impressive options.

Considering they don’t play the same position it is almost irrelevant. I’m still not sold that he was given the green light. There are conflicting reports if he was ever officially offered or not.
