The Idaho Vandals might not have had one of the top recruiting classes in the country on National Signing Day, but they might have the heaviest recruiting class. Idaho was able to get a commitment from JUCO offensive guard Semisi Tupou out of Cerritos College. Tupou was rated as a three-star offensive lineman by most services. The biggest thing about Tupou however is his size; he's 6-foot-5 and 400 pounds. Yes, four hundred. This means that Tupou will outweigh most defensive lineman he will face by at least 100 pounds.
Check out his Cerritos College highlight video, set to 2pac's "All Eyez On Me" after the jump.
I almost feel sorry for the undersized WAC defensive lineman that Tupou will be pancaking on a week to week basis. Imagine yourself as that 210-pound linebacker or 180-pound defensive back when Tupou rumbles to the second level to pick up the block. It's actually quite surprising how well Tupou gets past the line in his highlight video.
