Two more offensive linemen pledge their services to WSU

From Pullman -- Reports are coming in that a pair of high school offensive tackles have declared their intentions to play football at Washington State. Andre Dillard is a 6'5, 240-pound senior at Woodinville High School, while Brandon Evers is 6'7 and 275 pounds. Rivals.com says that Evers plays center, while Scout.com maintains that he will be an offensive tackle. We suspect that the latter recruiting service is correct, unless the former was making a comment about Evers' ability to contribute to the basketball team.

Neither prospect has been given any stars from the recruiting websites yet.

Barry Bolton has the scoop on Evers, who committed on Tuesday:

Evers has been a powerhouse for Enterprise High the past two season up front. Early on in his football career he played QB and WR before finding his true calling on the offensive line. He's blocked for standout running backs the past two seasons in Brad Woods and Izzy Matthews at Enterprise.

...

Evers had offers from WSU and SDSU, with Oregon, Washington  and Stanford all showing varying shades of interest.
