Class of 2010 Commit #10 - Justin Utupo

The Class of 2010 is rapidly filling up, and we haven't even hit August yet. Defensive end Justin Utupo became the tenth commit to the class when he announced he would play for the Irish yesterday.

Utupo is 6'2", and 250 pounds. Scout has him as a 3-star defensive tackle, while Rivals has him as a 3-star defensive end. Utupo had offers from Oklahoma State, Oregon State, Washington, Arizona State, Colorado, Missouri, and Nebraska. He becomes the third defensive end in the Class of 2010, following commitments by Chris Martin and Blake Lueders.

ESPN likes his desire and will to play the game, mentioning that he is a very "active" player on the field. Utupo had 70 tackles and 6 sacks in his junior season.

And sorry for the craptastic picture... it's all I could find online.
