Football: UW gets a QB the Utes wanted
The University of Washington has received a commitment from a California prep quarterback in a development that could have implications for the future signal-calling situations at both BYU and Utah.
Keith Price, a 6-foot-1, 181-pounder from Bellflower, Calif., gave Huskies coaches the word earlier today, according to Bob Condottaa's blog on the Seattle Times' Web stie.
Price recently received an offer from Utah, which still does not have a commitment from a QB in the class of 2009.
He's expected to be a possible replacement for Jake Locker, the phenomenal sophomore quarterback that BYU will face in September. Price said he also had an offer from Nevada and that Louisville, Oregon and Washington State were starting to take interest.
Of course, Washington taking Price could mean that it will have less interest in junior-to-be Jake Heaps, the big-time QB recruit from nearby Issaquah, Wash., that BYU is pinning its hopes on.
Heaps recently led a 7 on 7 team of Seattle-area standouts to a national passing league championship that was sponsored by the NFL.
----------------------------
Utah has also offered Nik Abele, a 6-foot-6, 250-pound senior lineman from Irvine, Calif. Boise State and San Diego State have also offered, and Arizona State and Colorado are showing interest.
