Football: Weber State gets some oral commitments
Obviously, Division I-AA Weber State doesn't get the pick of the litter when it comes to football recruiting.
But the Wildcats have apparently found a pair of good ones recently, landing oral commitments from one of the state of Utah's top athletes and one of the top defensive tackles in Hawaii.
Jamie Rigby, a combination running back and defensive back from Bountiful High has given the Wildcats a pledge, a source within the football department confirmed Friday.
Also, Ryan Eastman of Honolulu, Haw., and St. Louis High School said in an email this morning that he is headed to Ogden.
Ribgy was a first-team Tribune 4A all-stater in 2007 and rushed for almost 1,000 yards for the Braves.
Eastman, 6-0, 260, is ranked as the No. 9 recruit in Hawaii by Rivals.com and the 110th best defensive tackle in the country by ESPN.
We will have more on Weber State's recruiting efforts -- perhaps the last go-round for veteran coach Ron McBride -- in Sunday's newspaper.

why doesnt utah state or weber state or someone offer a scholarship to rhen richard from union high school? honestly utah state isnt gonna get a better recruit than him... if that walker kid can play division 1 then rhen surely can the walker kid wasnt even the best athlete in 3A.. he wasnt even the best defensive back on his team
