Salt Lake Tribune coverage of the Utah Utes and the Pac-12.
The Utes take the field, before PAC-12 football action between the Utah Utes and the UCLA Bruins, at Rice-Eccles Stadium, on Saturday, Sept. 23, 2023.The early signing period is two and a half months away, and while that might seem like a decent amount of time, the recruiting walls are actually closing in on everyone pretty fast.
And let’s not lay all of the blame at the feet of the Golden State. The top prospects in Washington, Colorado and Nevada are committed to either SEC or ACC schools. There’s been some anxiety within the fan base because the Trojans, whose 2024 class is currently ranked 18th, are about to go 0-for-5 on fringe top-100 prospects from Mater Dei, a traditional pipeline for USC.
“If is not getting anybody and taking second-tier guys from Southern California or the West Coast, then I’d be concerned. But they’re basically swapping a top-100 kid locally for a top-100 kid nationally. I think the tradeoff is not a net loss.” “I think if they’re going to get any kind of bump down the stretch, it’ll be kind of like USC last year,” Huffman said, “Now Colorado gets to be more picky and choosy with who they bring in .”Dan Lanning was super impressive during his first full recruiting cycle at Oregon and has maintained that momentum.
We won’t know how the recruiting dynamics out West will be impacted by the death of the Pac-12 until years from now
