X has only recently been getting noticed too. I think it would have only been a matter of time before Tui would have started to get alot of attention. He might not be quite as dominant as X but he'll definately be good. His decision to commit early certainly should affect Su'a Filo's decision too since they are pretty good friends. Landing both of those two would be amazing. If we somehow also pulled of the coup of getting the three best high school OL in Utah this year with Martinez included, I would gaurantee you a national championship before they all graduated. Maybe two.
that is not exactly true. x had several early offers including ones from both lsu and byu. he was on the map for other big schools as well, but after him performance at the army all-star camp it really exploded (which is what i think you are refering to).
tui was getting alot of notice as well, and is a big-time player. however with his family situation i never expected he would leave the state, and i'm glad we got him.
i'm not holding my breath for either x or martinez. your statement that it would be a "coup" if byu was to land them both doesn't take it far enough. it would be a "coup" if we were to land one of them. if somehow we landed them both, i would start looking for the end of the world, as i'm pretty sure that's one of the "signs of the times".
