The video shows that he's every bit as fast as stated.

Heard that he has two cousins from East High that have committed to the Y.

The block at 6:55 is amazing.

Sione Palelei's high school coach said he is the best he's had (25 years) and is easily one of the top RB's in LA. Parents are very interested in what BYU has to offer for the growth and development of his character as well as his talent. He likes the Y - the feeling is mutual

Talo Steves is reporting that BYU offered him a schollie. He loves the Cougars and grew up in UT before moving to LA. Palelei is related to Cougar commit Meti Taliauli. This would be a huge get as he is a legit 4 star RB.

Very cool. Hopefully our play this year will land him.

LSU did not offer him at their Junior Day. Might open the door for us.
