Faafoi has Pac-10 leader
Faitele Faafoi is visiting Arizona this weekend and after picking up a recent offer from the Wildcats there is word that the 6-foot-5, 300-pound offensive tackle from Tustin, Calif., has already committed.
Rivals.com has not yet confirmed that news but it's looking good for Arizona in the recruitment of Faafoi, a three-star prospect who's rated as the No. 75 offensive tackle in the 2011 class by Rivals.com.

He has also been offered by Utah but has not set up a visit date with the Utes yet. If the commitment rumor is true, Faafoi could be done with his recruitment after this weekend's trip to Arizona.
"They came down to the school and talked to me about the offer," Faafoi said. "They've been coming a lot to see me and they offered me last week. That's my first one but Utah offered me now, too."
Faafoi said earlier this week that he was looking toward his visit to Arizona, which would be his first official trip.
He has gotten along well with the Wildcats' coaching staff and that could be one of the biggest factors in why Arizona is ahead of every other school in his recruitment. Other Pac-10 schools have shown interest in recent months.
"They're pretty much the leader," Faafoi said. "What I like about them is their coaching staff."
