8:25 AM — Huskies still waiting on Draco Bynum, Brandon Kaho, MOsiah Liu, and Zion Tupuola-Fetui. Kaho is signing at 11:45, Liu is signing at 9 am. Tupuola-Fetui is in Hawai’i and two hours behind. Not sure what the hold up is with Bynum.
8:42 AM. As we had heard, there was a lot of pressure coming at Brandon Kaho from Alabama and also USC. He went ahead and ended it by signing earlier than expected.
Husky Nation get to know @Brandonkah0! Very excited to add this guy to the linebacker room!
