Washington coaches did not get the chance to hit the recruiting trail this week or make in-home visits with the team preparing to face Colorado in tonights Pac-12 Championship Game. However, we've got a couple recruiting notes to chew on before kickoff...
*** 2017 5-star Graham (Wash.) Graham-Kapowsin OT Foster Sarell -- Sarell hosted Stanford, Nebraska and USC for in-home visits this week with the Huskies expected to make their visit after this weekend.
Washington will still host the No.3 prospect in the country on Dec. 9-11 for an official visit before making his commitment on Jan. 7 at the US Army All-American game in San Antonio, Texas. Sarell has a tentative official visit set in January to Stanford, but that visit will only happen if he commits to the Cardinal. If he commits to Washington, for example, he will not take that visit or any other.
*** 2017 4-star Provo (Utah) Timpview S/ATH Chaz Ah You -- As we reported a couple weeks ago Rivals250 prospect Chaz Ah You has scheduled his official visit for next weekend as well, Dec. 9-11. Ah You will not count toward the 2017 recruiting class with the four-star prospect taking an LDS mission after high school.
However, UW DL coach Ikaika Malloe and DC Pete Kwiatkowski have also been making their mark in Utah and especially on Ah You. He will still take all five of his visits but the Huskies get an early one helps come the final home stretch in late January/early February.
*** 2017 3-star Danville (Calif.) Monte Vista QB Jake Haener [UW commit] -- Haener is 11-1 this season and won their league in Cali. Saturday, UW coach Chris Petersen and OC Jonathan Smith are planning to watch Haener's North Coast Section championship game and then will follow that up with an in-home visit and dinner with Haener's family.
Washington has been focusing on its 2019 and 2020 class at quarterback mostly with 2018 still the focus of 4-star commit Jacob Sirmon. Haener has become a lot more mobile his senior year while still having things he'd like to improve on. Nevertheless the Huskies have the 2017 class long shored up at quarterback.
