Football: Offer list grows for Alta linebacker Ho-Ching
People often ask me who is the most-recruited football player in the state this year.
This year, the member of the class of 2010 getting the most attention is Brighton High lineman Ricky Hemuli, especially now that Pleasant Grove quarterback Dallas Lloyd has committed to Stanford and Timpview safety Chris Badger has committed to Notre Dame (after originally committing to Stanford).
Another Utah player with a growing list of offers is Alta High linebacker Toloa'i Ho-Ching.
Alta High coach Les Hamilton says that Ho-Ching, a 6-foot, 225-pound rising senior, has written offers from BYU, Utah State, Wisconsin, Wyoming and Stanford.
Hamilton said that Washington State and UCLA have offered orally, but not in writing.
BYU offered Ho-Ching shortly after its Junior Day on June 6.
The coach said Ho-Ching wants to take his five allowed official recruiting visits before committing. He will be eligible to begin taking those the first day of his senior year, approximately Sept. 1.
Ho-Ching rates three stars from Scout.com and is the 26th best outside linebacker in the country, according to that recruiting Web site.
-----------------------
Led by Lloyd and BYU commits Bryan Sampson and Joey Owens, Pleasant Grove will probably have the most D-I recruits in the state this coming season.
But two-time defending state champion Alta will also have its share of college-bound talent.
Hamilton reported that linebacker Parker Hausknecht has committed to Utah State, while lineman Jordan Black has committed to BYU.
Also, interest in growing in defensive back/quarterback Jordan Brown and wide receiver Zach Liston.
Brown received an offer from Snow College recently when the Hawks were in Ephraim for a team camp.
Liston has not received an offer yet, but has drawn interest from Washington State, Utah, Utah State, Southern Utah, Stanford and Navy.

Heimuli is the most highly recruited kid in the state this year, but only because Bronson Kaufusi committed his sophomore year to BYU. Otherwise, it would have been Bronson.
Also, not only does PG have Lloyd, Owens, and Sampson, but they also have Sefa Tanoa'i, who is a D-1 kid, OL Bryce Walker, who has committed to USU, junior LB Austin Heder, committed to BYU, and rumors a certain player out of Timpanogas may be joining the Vikings this fall.
