Nation's No. 4 DE Cameron Latu names the five finalists in his recrutiment

Latu is rated as the No. 4 WDE in the nation by Rivals.

Four-star recruit Cameron Latu (6-foot-5, 236 pounds, Salt Lake City, UT) is rated as the No. 4 weakside defensive end in the 2018 recruiting class by Rivals.com. On Friday, Latu made a major move on his commitment, as he named the top five schools that are still in the running for him.

Those five: USC, Alabama, Utah, Washington, and Nebraska.

USC is currently considered the favorite for Latu, but Alabama could make this one very interesting. The Crimson Tide are the only "east-coast" team in the running for Latu, and he has already taken a visit to Tuscaloosa. Alabama only has two commitments so far in the 2018 class, so if they are able to make the right pitch, then there is definitely room for Latu on the Crimson Tide.
