The thing I found remarkable here is that Utah is in some good company for the final 6:

Michigan
Nebraska
Oregon
UCLA
USC
Utah

And take a look at the schools he just cut from his final 6:
Alabama
Notre Dame
Oregon State (his hometown college, he’s from Corvalis)
Washington

We are truly running with the big boys in recruiting now, kids.

It’s Hufanga, FYI

Oops! I’ll correct that.

We are also a top target for a 5 star LB, #1 in the west.

Henry doesn’t graduate until 2019, but we were his favorite school growing up so hopefully that gives us an edge.

To clarify: Athlete, right? meaning the label given in recruiting to football players who play multiple positions and aren’t defined by a particular position so they are called “athlete”. Not to mean that this #1 athlete ranking makes him above or perhaps even equal to the nations #1 rated running back, or #1 rated receiver, or #1 rated safety, etc. 

I don’t mean to diminish the young man in any way. Percy Harvin was an athlete as a RB / WR or could have played anywhere. And so Hufanga looks like he can do a lot of damage at the college level.

Utah is recruiting him as a SS/LB
