The Hornets did well with mid-year enrollees and the early signing period in December, but just hauled in some big fish during today’s official signing day.
They landed 3 star QB (according to 247) Yaro Duvalko out of Washington and 3 star DL DeShawn Lynch from Folsom HS. Both are huge gets.
Duvalko de-committed from Utah State and held gray shirt offers from UNLV and Boise State.
Lynch had full ride offers from USC, Oregon, and Arizona State, among others.
“I’m relieved, mostly, and proud,” Lynch said. “It got to the point where it was a grind. I like Sac State because it’s a good school, I know the coaches and they gave me the option to play both sides of the ball. I’m very happy. I saw Sac State play (in 2019) and knew they’d go crazy with success with the coaches.” (The above is an excerpt taken from Joe Davidson’s article in the current edition of the SacBee) https://amp.sacbee.com/sports/high-school/article239993858.html
I’m glad to hear that Troy Taylor and staff committed to allow Lynch to play both ways. Because I always thought he was a beast catching the ball at TE. Should be fun to follow his progress.
The Hornets also landed some talented and fast skill players in Jayden Dixon-Veal, Nick Wyatt, and Eian Moore. Potentially, this might be one of Sac State best ever recruiting classes.
