Big Brother Doesn't Know
One of the players that the University of Utah brought in to talk to the media at coach Kyle Whittingham's news conference today was defensive end Paul Kruger.
Naturally, The Recruiting Trail had a question for the Utah redshirt freshman.
"What's your little brother going to do?"
Kruger's little brother, of course, is Timpanogos High lineman David Kruger, a four-star recruit whom both BYU and Utah covet.
"I can't tell ya," Paul Kruger said. "I think he is just waiting around to hear from a few other schools. The end of the season is drawing to a close, so he should have a decision pretty soon. As far as anything concrete, I can't tell you."
Paul said his brother has some "big-time, out-of-state schools" still recruiting him. The head recruiting expert from rivals.com was at his last game, Timpanogos' 35-28 loss to Alta in the 5-A quarterfinals, but couldn't get much out of David, either.
"He's definitely raised some eyebrows, so I hope he gets the best opportunity that he can and goes where he want to," Paul Kruger said. "I just help him understand what to look for, and how to decypher what he wants. But ultimately I want it to be his decision and I want him to do what he wants to do and what he feels is right for himself."
The Krugers will go through the same process in two years, because Timpanogos also features 6-foot-7 Joe Kruger, a sophomore and the younger brother of Paul and David.
"Joe is a big boy, but he's pretty quick for his size," Paul said. "He could be awesome, and he plays basketball, too."

Come on man! Sure, there's some glory in playing (or maybe in sitting on the bench) at USC or Oklahoma or whatever, but there's nothing like playing alongside your brother! Those memories are worth 1000 song girls of USC!!!!
