2026 OH RB Favour Akih (Verbal Offer)

Just saw this at Canesinsight:

I can see him being a Buckeye this summer
Just watched some film and wow this kid could be great, love the offer and definitely want him in the class. This may be recency bias, but his running style is seems like it could develop into Judkins. Physical, jump cuts and acceleration are there in droves, and just finds a way to make the play. Plus he has a sick spin move to top it off. Definitely one that flew under my radar but I am all in Favour of keeping this kid in Ohio (drums announce my terrible pun).

I'm sure the target RB number for this class is 2, maybe 3 if we land the right ones. But if we add Favour, to Bo, Turbo and West from last class, the RB room should be stocked with versatile talent.

His style kind of reminds me of a HS Chip Trayanum. He's pretty raw, and I'm sure the RB2 in the class will be a nationally ranked guy, it's just a matter of who that will be

Chip was solid, but I see more immediate burst that Judkins had and the improv on a broken play. But comparisons are just for fans mostly, he can just be him. I think he'd fit great in our our offense though.

Agreed. Comparisons are fun for fans and analysts. Another comp I’ve heard is Master Teague as well

If it’s true that he didn’t start playing football until the 9th grade, just think about how much more room there is to grow
Wow, yeah that means insane upside because he is just a natural athlete with a feel for the position. He'll have a lot of room to grow and the time to do it, so it seems like a win-win for both sides imo.
