The Utah State Aggies continued to load up on offensive linemen for their 2015 class with Patrick Mekari, a 6-foot-5, 293-pounder out of Thousand Lakes, Calif., committing to the Aggies on Tuesday.
Mekari said his visit went well enough last week that he felt confident in committing even without visiting other schools.
"The first one I took is where I want to go so that is it," he said. "The coaches are amazing and the players treated me like family."
Mekari is the third lineman to commit to the Aggies recently, joining Preston Brooksby, out of Glendale Community College and Jude Hockel out of Diablo Valley CC.
The Aggies also have a commitment from Wade Meacham, an offensive lineman out of Layton.
"Utah State hasn't been bad in the past, but I think they can only get better," he said. "The coaches have a lot of expectations and I knew after taking my tour through campus and learning about the academics it was going to be a good fit for me."
