Still 9...

A strange thing occured over the weekend. BYU received yet another verbal commitment, but remains at 9 commits for 2008 signing. Before you go off wondering whose verbal waivered, keep reading.

Adam Timo, a sophmore out of Snow Canyon High school in Utah just gave a verbal commitment for 2009! Timo did not even play varsity for the full year. He started for junior varsity as their quarterback and only moved up to varsity running back later in the season. Timo is already a man among boys at 6'1 170 pounds an likely to only get bigger in the coming years. He is also the two-time defending state champion for the high jump (over 7 feet) and also won the long-jump (his personal best was a 22-4 at the BYU invitational.)

Wonder what it would look like to see him jump over a line?

A lot like this.

Timo, whose parents are African American and Haitian, is LDS and plans on serving a mission straight out of high school. He won't don the Cougar Blue until 2011.

My 3 Cents: Looks like a great catch for BYU. He says he wants to play QB for varsity next year, which could be interesting. I'm not exactly sure how a dual-threat QB would work into Anae's offense, but it would be fun to see. This kid has some growing to do still and could be quite the recruit when the time comes (in almost 2 years) for him to sign his letter of intent.
