Elite 2016 Defensive Tackle Trims His List, Includes Washington

Boss Tagaloa released his list of top-12 schools late Friday evening, and Washington is one of seven Pac-12 schools that make an appearance.

The recruitment of Scout.com's No. 1 defensive tackle in the 2016 class just got a bit more interesting.

Boss Tagaloa (De La Salle/Concord, Calif.), a 6-3, 295 lb. terror and the nation's No. 36 overall recruit, released his top-12 schools last night, and Washington coaches Chris Petersen and Jeff Choate are surely pleased to see that the Huskies made the cut.

In his scouting report of Tagaloa, Scout's Greg Biggins says the following:

Tagaloa is an elite tackle prospect with the ability to step in and play early in college.
