I'm not questioning his potential as I have very little information on Liufau, but could someone who has seen film explain why we should be excited by a recruit who is rated as a 3 Star this late in the recruiting cycle?
If he is the equal of Asa Turner, as some have said, and a potential linebacker/safety why is he rated so low? He has a few west coast offers, but what else could we expect out of this recruit? |

I wasn't being critical of him at all. I was asking for an explanation as to why we are showing interest at such a late date. What does he bring to the team? He may be under-rated. If so, why should he be getting more attention? Speed? Coverage skills? What?

They've been recruiting him for a long time. It's odd it was never more public than it is right now until you factor in their pursuit of Turner and maybe they've come to a crossroads with him. Their goal to add a Rover to this class has obviously been a priority all along. As to your questions on what he brings? He's a converted CB to S to LB to ROLB. He's done all the things a Rover is expected to do and he has Alohi Gilman's Dad's approval... who trains a lot of the HI DB's.

One further question, I've seen conflicting reports on his weight. One says 200 lb. (247, I believe) Another recent article on a USC site listed him as a 6'2" and 175 lb. cornerback when he committed recently. So, how much does he weigh and what is the thinking on his potential for adding more weight to reach linebacker size? Or are we recruiting him as a defensive back? |
