Utah's class was more or less set heading into National Signing Day with only a few uncommitted prospects left on the board. One was Highland HS (Pocatello, Idaho) three-star defensive tackle Wayne Kirby. Kirby announced today he will be signing with the Oregon Ducks over Utah. Kirby has good size at 6-3, 290.
Kirby would have been a nice get for Utah as I think he could have performed well in Utah's system. Defensive tackle is not an immediate need for Utah right now with many talented players returning for Utah for the 2016 season including Lowell Lotulelei.
