Interesting story here on Toa Taua (edit- just noticed it's an older story, but sounds like he may make his pick today at the Polynesian Bowl)

"Iowa State
My take on the Cyclones: Keep a close eye on this one – because this school, I believe, is the new front runner to land Taua.
Taua spent his last official visit at the Big 12 campus during the weekend of Dec. 9. Iowa State can definitely use Taua’s running. The Cyclones only mustered 3.7 yards per carry during the season.
There are two things at play here that gives the Cyclones the instant edge on luring in Taua.
One: Iowa State has become a program on the rise with a 7-5 mark that includes victories over top 10 conference foes Oklahoma and TCU.
Two: California players have done well in an Iowa State uniform before. Sheldon Croney of Bakersfield is currently in the running back rotation for the Cyclones. Fellow Bakersfield player Kamari Moya-Cotton leads ISU in interceptions with three. Also, former Cyclone quarterback great Seneca Wallace came from Sacramento. Lastly, we should add ex-Arroyo Grande High placekicker Garrett Owens is on the current Cyclone roster. "

Looks like it'll be Nevada or Utah St.
Can't remember which one his brother coaches at.

Seeing that Scates is visiting this weekend! I really like this kid.
I don't know anything new on Scates other than Halsted's report that he is visiting this weekend.
