Whereas the Buffaloes have simply 10 highschool commitments, Wilson turns into the second highest-rated pledge within the class.

Pasadena flipper

Brigham Younger is unbeaten, and UCLA is scuffling. Nevertheless it’s robust to beat the hometown faculty.

The most recent instance of that got here courtesy of three-star edge rusher Cole Cogshell, who performs for Muir Excessive College in Pasadena, the house of the Rose Bowl.

Wildcats flip one, land one other

As with Oregon State, it was a tough weekend for Arizona, as soon as a preseason Prime-25 staff that has now misplaced 4 in a row (three of them at dwelling) since its victory at Utah.

However the Wildcats additionally flipped a commit from one former Pac-12 faculty, then pulled in maybe the quickest rising prospect in Northern California.

Final week, longtime Cal commit Carter Jones, a linebacker from Southern California, decommitted from the Bears after which introduced he could be headed to Arizona.

However the massive win got here on Wednesday when Louis Akpa, an offensive sort out from Serra Excessive College in San Mateo, dedicated to the Wildcats.

Arizona head coach Brent Brennan had lengthy recruited Serra nicely when he and his workers had been at San Jose State.  And Akpa, who, like Brennan, performed within the West Catholic Athletic League, related with offensive line coach Josh Oglesby, who was beforehand at San Jose State.

Akpa had visited Boise State formally and had set an official go to to Oregon State whereas lining up dates with Cal and Minnesota.

But on the go to to Arizona, he felt the transfer was Tucson.

Akpa had some assist. His host was former Serra teammate Jabari Mann, a San Jose State signee who obtained out of his letter-of-intent as soon as Brennan left for Arizona. Finally, Mann joined Brennan in Tucson.
