#9 Washington Husky Recruit - Anthony Gobern

Anthony Gobern - Corner back (Del Camp HS - Fair Oaks, CA)

• Bio from GoHuskies.com - Most of his highlights are actually on offense and he looks pretty good. Makes you wonder why they like him for defense, but maybe that's a hint to how good he actually is.
  
• Scout gives Gobern 3-stars and ranks him the #84 CB.
  
• Only given 2-stars by Rivals and not ranked at his position.
• An article from the Sacramento Bee about Gobern's high school coach's focus on academics.

ESPN.com: "Gobern blends good size, physicality and speed at defensive back. We are unsure at this time if he possesses the hips and recovery speed to be a true cover corner at the next level..."

Gobern helps fill an obvious need in the secondary and is another guy who runs track, so he should add to the overall team speed. His 40 time is listed as 4.4 in one place and 4.5 in another, but either way he has good speed. He didn't have any other Pac-10 offers, so another recruit who may be a sleeper in the minds of UW coaches.
