I think Spencer Fano is going to get a 5th star this week.
He got a huge shoutout after the All-American Bowl and had an incredible week.
I can genuinely say that I’ve waited my entire Utah fan lifetime that I’ve hoped for a true 5 star recruit to join Utah. I understand we’ve had 5-star transfers come to the hill, but this is 5 star out of high school that picked us. An OL no less.
Another massive step in the right direction. Go Utes!
I’d love it… but I doubt it. Right now 247 composite has him ranked as the #146 player in the class with a 93.73 rating. To be a 5 star, he’d have to move up to being a top 35 player in the class with a 98.36 rating.
Jumps of that size are just really unlikely. He’s going to be a very high 4-star. Which is great, and I’m excited for that
I’m waiting for it to happen also. Lander Barton was a 5-star On3, but was 4-star on Rivals, 247, and ESPN. Close, but I’d love a consensus 5-star where all the recruiting services rate him a 5-star. I think it will happen some day.
I think Fano might get a bump, but probably not to 5-star. Regardless, Utah’s OLine recruiting this time is one of the best in the country – and that is exciting:
