Class is (Mostly) In
UPDATE: A breakdown of all signees from the Corvallis GT.
Owa picks UCLA? That’s a little heartbreaking considering he showed up to the announcement wearing an ORANGE polo. Screw ‘em. I hope he loses four times to the Beavs.
You can find a complete listing of commitments here. A couple names to watch: Happy Iona, a 4-Star DT, apparently isn’t academically eligible to sign. He will probably spend a year or two at a JC. Hopefully he will continue to progress and OSU can pick him up down the line. The other name to watch is Soma Vainuku. He is a FB/LB out of Northern California (Eureka!). I had him pegged for Arizona State or USC (if they had the scholly available) but he is now planning on taking a visit to Oregon State this coming weekend. Word is Vainuku prefers USC followed by Arizona State. This is why I predicted ASU as I assumed USC would close strong and fill in its 2010 class today. However, apparently Vainuku’s family is making a big push to OSU. Sometimes that matters, sometimes it doesn’t. Or maybe I am all wrong.
More coming later on about what I believe is the greatest recruiting class in Oregon State history.
