USU Football: Big recruiting weekend for the Aggies
Published on Jan 6, 2012 01:08PM

Headlined by Brandon Faniaka and Tenny Palepoi, USU is setting up for one of the bigger recruiting weekends in school history.

Why? Because the Aggies, led by Gary Andersen, are trying to rumble with the big boys for line talent that could make them dangerous next season.

Fanaika, a 6-foot-4, 315 lineman out of Pleasant Grove is already committed to Stanford. He is brothers with linebacker Jason Fanaika and their cousin Hoko, a 6-4 340 pound offensive lineman, will also be visiting.

Former Brighton High star Junior Salt, a 6-3 330 pound lineman, is visiting as well. He is committed to the University of Florida for next season.

The recruits are expected to attend Saturday night's basketball game between Utah State and Nevada. Below is a complete list on who will be on campus this weekend, starting today.

Bill Vavau, 6-4, 315 pound offensive lineman out of Snow College. He is committed to Utah State

Logan Malohifoou, a 6-6 260 pound offensive lineman out of Copper Hills High. He is a return missionary and would be a freshman next season.

Jake Simonich, a 6-5 255 pound offensive lineman out of San Ramon Valley High School.

Dwayne Lorick, a 6-4 200 pound wide receiver

Jordan Jenkins, a 6-0 190 pound wideout

Andrew Chen, a 6-4 260 pound high school offensive lineman out of California
