Four-star ATH sees Los Angeles schools

Josh Falo was down in Southern California last weekend for a passing tournament and took advantage of the trip to check out the Los Angeles schools.

The four-star athlete from Sacramento (Calif.) Inderkum is one of the state's better two-way players in the 2017 class and has already picked up a couple Pac-12 offers from California and Colorado.

There are other schools that have expressed interest, too. Arizona and Michigan dropped by the school last week to check on the 6-foot-4, 216-pound prospect, and USC was scheduled to see him Thursday.

His brother, N.J., signed with the Buffaloes in February but the younger Falo said that won't have much of an effect on his decision down the road.

"We're close and it's hard to ignore because we're brothers and all that, but where I go will be up to me and my family," Falo said. "I'm going to make an independent decision."

The Golden Bears have offered and Falo said he's comfortable with the program especially since it's one of the closer ones to home. He also holds offers from San Jose State, Eastern Washington and Nevada.

Two other in-state schools could get more involved this summer.

"Both UCLA and USC were very big and very nice," Falo said. "They're both beautiful campuses. They're both recruiting me. UCLA told me they like my size at tight end and receiver. USC also recruited my brother and that school is big time. They're very good all around and have picked up a lot of people the last couple years."

Falo was credited with 32 total tackles and two sacks in nine games as a sophomore last season.
