The Cowboys’ staff worked swiftly to nab a running back out of Utah the week before Signing Day.
Sesi Vailahi, a 5-foot-11, 190-pound back out of West High School in Salt Lake City, announced his commitment to Oklahoma State on Friday. The Cowboys offered Vailahi on Tuesday.
A three-star prospect, Vailahi picked the Pokes over offers from BYU, Nevada, Utah State and others.
Playing at running back and wide receiver, Vailahi helped lead his high school to a state quarterfinal this past season. According to MaxPreps, he had 240 rushing yards on 32 carries, 607 receiving yards on 24 catches and 13 total touchdowns.
