Sam Taimani, a four-star offensive/defensive lineman from East High in Salt Lake City, made a verbal commitment to the Huskies on Saturday evening, the third for UW in about 24 hours.
The Huskies have 17 known commitments for their 2018 class, which has vaulted to a No. 11 national ranking from 247sports.com.
Taimani chose UW over offers from Notre Dame, Oregon, Utah and others.
He is one of 11 recruits on campus this weekend and the second recruit from Utah to commit to the Huskies in as many days, joining linebacker MJ Tafisi (Sandy, Utah).
