Scout $ - GBW Video: 1-on-1 with Shaq Washington
Sam Webb of GoBlueWolverine.com, Feb 17, 2010

Interview from the Raw Talent combine by a _ichigan guy, while wearing a Buckeye hat...

Getting a lot of interest from OSU, _ichigan, Oregon, North Carolina, Georgia, & West Virginia... Being recruited by most as a WR & he prefers a spread... Grew up an OSU fan and an offer would be great but he'd still consider others... He's hoping to be an early enrollee...

Rivals $ - The OV Review: Shaquille Washington
February 20, 2010

OhioVarsity.com

Washington is a threat to go the distance every time the ball is in his hands... Size is a concern as well as the strength to hand fight & beat bump coverage at the line... This author sees him as a top 15 - 20 player in the state... If he were 2 inches taller, he could be a national recruit getting offers from elite programs...

Tweaked his hip during the workouts but feels he performed "pretty well"... The Wolverines are recruiting him for the slot & he could see himself fitting in well there as well as at KR... Admits to being a Buckeye fan but says that won't affect his decision... Is trying to make it to Night of Champions at scUM on 3/13 & will be on the Raw Talent bus tour this summer... No leader, no time table...

Scout $ - 'Shaq' Shows Off At Showcase
Bill Greene of SuperPrep.com, Mar 3, 2010

Bank characterizes Washington as the prototype slot WR... His intangibles like leadership & competitiveness are off the charts... Developing as a receiver but shows burst off his cuts & is already adept at creating seperation... Michigan St. & Illinois both want him to visit so they can offer him in person... He's been talking to OSU & attended one of their junior days a few weeks back...

The Wolverines are recruiting him for the slot.

Him and about fifteen million other people...

Maple Heights quarterback Shaq Washington's college football recruiting blog

...
Me, Dana Day (Glenville), Frank Clark (Glenville), Michael Hollins (Maple Heights) and Nicholas Davis (Glenville) were recognized as standouts in the camp.

Ohio Rise 7

...
Shaquille Washington - Maple Heights (Maple Heights, Ohio) ATH
Projected as a wide receiver in college, Washington has been unstoppable as a dual-threat quarterback for Maple Heights. As a junior he put up off the chart stats, accounting for over 4,000 total yards and nearly 50 touchdowns, taking his team deep into the playoffs. Right now he has been offered by West Virginia, Toledo and Bowling Green and is expecting Michigan State to offer after he attends its junior day. Oregon is another school that is showing some serious interest. Washington did not run a 40 Saturday, but tested well in the other areas with a 4.13 shuttle, 37-5 power ball and 35-inch vertical jump.
