‘20 DE Jonathan Pickett (Nevada)

[BillySee58]

6’3” 240 lb defensive end from Desert Pines in Las Vegas, Nevada. 247 is showing we have offered, and it appears to be recently. Also was offered by Arizona, Arizona State, BYU, UNLV, Utah State, Vanderbilt, and West Virginia. Of those offers it looks like the most recent one was West Virginia back in July.

One has to assume the P5 offers are not valid if he didn’t sign in Dec, right?

I would assume they were valid at one time. Maybe he waited and those slots were filled before he committed. Never really know.

Correct. Because not only did he not sign with those teams, but none of those offers have come in the last 6 months (except WVU technically, which came in July).

I'd take him in a heart beat.  Especially knowing that P5 HC/DCs wanted him bad enough to extend an offer even though you and I know that doesn't mean much until they get their official offer letter.  I'd rather have him than the prep school DL.

Perhaps we might want to find out why the other offers dried up. Maybe grades scared them off?? Maybe he was able to turn it around?

I would feel confident that our coaching staff did their homework prior to extending an offer.

Agree. That's what I was referring to in that perhaps he was able to get on track

Nice film. I see that Luke Walerius tweeted he was headed out west. I wonder if he’s coming to visit Jonathan and the QB from Arizona.

Seth tweeted that he was “wheels up” headed out to complete this class. That would lead me to believe he is headed out of state.

Aha!   There's the connection...
David Hill (the Desert Pines Asst coach in the pic above) was a Fullback at Arizona when Seth was the RBs coach/OC there back in 2009-11.  
Great guy to have in our corner!

Like that we are getting him in on an official visit this weekend. Lock the gate, I mean lock him up!
