Got my first peek yesterday. He's ridiculously quick and very slender, I'm guessing OLB in college. The thought of him, Shazier, and a 250 pound Curtis Grant in the middle has me grinning from ear, to ear:biggrin:

What's just as sick is that Crowell will be in the 2 deep at one of those positions(he was one of my favorites coming into this class, with his pass rush ability) and we have C Bryant probably manning the Star! :osu:

His academic interest is computer science. According to US News Rankings and Review, of the schools on his final list California ranks #1 in this major (tied with 3 other schools). OSU ranks 28, Northwestern 35, ND 63.

OSU is no slouch in this major. He has a chance to play close to home too. Good luck with your decision!!!

Ifeadi Odenigbo on the move
Success came quickly for ESPNU 150 DE, but he sees the big picture on and off field
By Jared Shanker
ESPN Recruiting

Ifeadi Odenigbo wasn't supposed to be living in America. He wasn't supposed to play football. And he wasn't supposed to be one of the 150 best high school seniors in the country.

The Centerville (Ohio) defensive end is doing all three, though. By this time next year, he'll be doing it at the highest level of college football, playing for a BCS conference team.

"I look at him and sometimes I'm amazed at what he's been able to accomplish," his mother, Linda, said.

A change of plans leads to a new home
Odenigbo's parents are from Nigeria and lived there until Linda came to the United States toward the end of 1991. A pediatrician, Linda traveled to New Jersey to complete her residency program in New York City. Her husband, Thomas, would visit her every so often but remained home in Nigeria.

"I came over initially just to get my residency program done," Linda said. "The original plan was to then go back home.

"When I got done, we made the decision to stay back here. There are better opportunities over here."
