Utah OL Darius Afalava went with Oklahoma rather than the UW.
Yet these were staged college football announcements on Friday for desired 2025 recruits -- presented on a Youtube channel or an Instagram page and sometimes in an awkward manner with long silence preceding the moment of reveal -- and each of these guys included the University of Washington among their final choices.
The good news about these latest recruiting developments is the Huskies and their ever watchful fan base simply can move on and do this all over again on Monday with three more decisions coming in a similar fashion, involving 4-star linebacker Zaydrius Rainey-Sale from Spanaway, Washington; 4-star edge rusher Chinedu Onyeagoro from Los Angeles; and 4-star edge rusher Smith Orogbo from the Houston area.
The mild surprise of the guys passing on the UW on Friday was Afalava, a 6-foot-5, 320-pound interior-line prospect from Lehi, Utah, who seemed to get along famously with Brennan Carroll, the UW offensive coordinator and offensive-line coach, at least when looking at their multiple publicity photos together.
