Daniels is a 6-foot, 170-pound safety who already had offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Arkansas, Notre Dame, Oregon State, Washington and Montana. In his junior season, he finished with 46 tackles and two sacks.
Despite finishing with 38 tackling and seven sacks, Hood, a 6-foot, 280-pound recruit, did not have any offers until Washington State came through on Wednesday. The in-state schools have been showing interest as well.
The fourth state of Arizona prospect to land a Washington State offer was Denzell Dotson, a 6-foot-2, 300-pound offensive guard from Glendale Cactus who has performed well at multiple events this spring. Montana was his only other offer.
San Diego State also got in the mix Wednesday by offering Avery Moss, a 6-foot-4, 245-pound defensive end from Tempe (Ariz.) Corona Del Sol who said this week that he plans to wait until after his senior year to make a decision in his recruitment.
Arizona, Arizona State and Washington have also offered and Moss, who's strongly considering leaving the state to play in college, said Stanford, USC, Purdue, UCLA, Oregon and Arkansas have started to show interest.
Rising junior quarterback Tyler Bruggman also picked up his first verbal offer from Colorado State.
Bruggman is a 6-foot-1, 190-pound pro-style quarterback from Phoenix (Ariz.) Brophy Prep who also lists interest from Arizona, Arizona State and Northern Arizona. He threw for 1,304 yards and 11 touchdowns as a sophomore.
