Football: BYU TE commit Wilson still talking to Miami
A few random tidbits for you as high school football recruiting starts to heat up again with most states having finished or finishing their seasons this weekend.
It appears that Richard Wilson, the tight end from Spanish Fork who committed to BYU in October, is still talking to some other schools.
According to the Web site canesports.com, which covers Miami football, Wilson says the Canes aren't totally out of his recruiting picture.
"Miami's still in contact with me, still sends me mail and I still email them often," Wilson told the site. "Right now I'm with the Cougars, but if things change I might go visit Miami."
Wilson reportedly said that if there are any coaching staff changes at BYU he might change his mind. None are on the horizon, that I am aware of. Offensive coordinator Robert Anae is the coach who mostly works with tight ends at BYU.
Wilson caught 43 passes for 845 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2008. The Dons were eliminated in the first round of the 5A playoffs.
Wilson told the site that BYU's tight end [Dennis Pitta] was "leading the nation in receiving yards for three weeks in a row" and he likes the way the Cougars utilize their tight ends.

Two of the top three uncommitted linemen in the state -- Timpview's Xavier Su'a-Filo and Cottonwood's John Martinez -- visited USC last weekend to watch the Trojans wallop Notre Dame.
Former Cottonwood star Stanley Havili, a USC fullback, was the players' host on Saturday.
According to Brandon Huffman of Scout.com, USC, UCLA and LSU are the three schools Martinez is still considering. He will visit UCLA this weekend when the Bruins play host to the Trojans.
Martinez' father, Steve, told the site that John might announce his decision at the UnderArmour All-America Game in Orlando in January. He has also talked about waiting until Signing Day in February.

Manti Te'o, the linebacker from Punahou High in Honolulu, Haw., received in-home visits this week from both Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis and BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall.
