On the surface... it is not necessarily huge... but underneath this signing there is a lot more than meets the eye...

So... why is this such a big signing... beyond the fact that the kid is 6'6 270 lbs at the age of 17!?!?!...
1) his partner in crime... Gaius Vaenuku who is also a DE currently holds offers from both Arizona schools... Michigan... Kansas State and Oklahoma State...UCLA Washington TCU... and landing Sam gives us a leg up... landing two 6'6 Defensive ends who have been together for years now would be a nice duo to score...
FURTHERMORE... Mohelika Uasike is close to both Sam and Gaius and I have heard from multiple good sources that Uasike is going to be a top recruit in 2014 and potentially the best DT in the class but he was already a big Utah fan due to his LDS background... but now... I think we have got to be the place for him...
cause and effect...
We have a pipeline potentially growing with Trinity down in Texas... wouldn't that be nice???
