Football: Most-recruited prep QB in state history? Might be PG's Lloyd
It is quickly becoming apparent that Pleasant Grove High's Dallas Lloyd will complete his high school career as the most-recruited quarterback in state history.
More than Scott Mitchell or Jim McMahon. More than Brandon Doman. More than Riley Nelson or James Lark. When Bruce Hardy came out of Bingham High in 1974 and was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated, he was highly recruited (he ended up playing tight end at Arizona State). But nothing like this.
Just follow the offers.
Lloyd, the 6-foot-3, 205-pounder who helped the Vikings make it to the 5A state semifinals last year, received offers No. 8 and No. 9 recently -- from Nebraska and Miami.
Lloyd's father, Casey, noted in an email that the Miami offer was significant to Dallas because the Hurricanes have been his favorite team growing up.
Other schools that have offered include BYU, Utah, Utah State, Wyoming, Syracuse, Tulsa and Stanford.
Dallas is also receiving a lot of interest from Vanderbilt, Oregon, Kansas State, Michigan State, Arizona State, Washington and TCU, according to his father.
Stanford sent coaches out to visit and observe last week. Nebraska, BYU, Utah, MSU, Utah State and others have also stopped by the PG campus. Miami is scheduled to visit this week.
Casey Lloyd said his son will attend a lot of camps and workouts this summer and wants to get in a few visits and make his decision before the Vikings' season begins in August against three-time defending 4A champion Timpview.
