Football: Top recruits watch BYU destroy UCLA
So I am walking past the BYU football locker room on the way to the media interview room on Saturday after the Cougars trashed UCLA 59-0, and I notice a half-dozen or so high school-age kids in street clothes walking into the locker room.
Wait a minute. That's Northridge safety Chris Washington, Bingham tight end Remington Peck, Spanish Fork tight end Richard Wilson and Jake Heaps, the junior quarterback from Washington who might be the most recruited quarterback in the nation at this time next year.
Wow. BYU picked a great game to have some of its most coveted recruits attend. There may have been more high schoolers there; those are just the ones I recognized.
Aside from saying hello to Heaps (that was me, Jake, in case you read this and are wondering), I didn't get a chance to talk to the recruits, unfortunately. Of course, Peck has already committed to BYU.

Scout.com's Brandon Huffman recently came out with his list of top high school senior safeties in the West, with a note that either USC and BYU have commitments from the top six safeties in the West, in his opinion. That's not bad company for the Cougars to be in.
J'ray Galea'i of Kahuku, Hawaii and Timpview's Craig Bills are the top-six safeties who have committed to BYU. Galea'i is No. 4 and Bills is No. 5.
Washington, the aforementioned safety from Northridge, is ranked No. 7. He's uncommitted, but is having a solid senior season -- especially as a receiver.
Making the "Next 15" list was Cottonwood High safety Asi Hosea, who has offers from Hawaii, Washington State, SMU, Washington, Arizona State, Kansas State and UConn. Contrary to some published reports, Hosea does not have an offer from BYU, according to a source with a good grasp on the seniors that BYU has offered.
