Word is he's starting to take OVs this month. Nigerian kid that just started playing football so he's obviously raw but my goodness the potential is through the roof.

6-8 280.

Any reason this dude couldn’t put on 20 lbs and play OT? You know he’s got to have the wingspan of a pterodactyl.

Jesus

Looked it up on Twitter and someone said he runs a 4.5

Don't know how true that is but they said he can run down most running backs.

Wonder if he could block field goals too

He’s set up an official with Oregon and they see him as a 3-4 end. He’s a project but doubt 3 years.

He has a nice offer list. Appears it would be wise to land Wisdom.

I've spent time in Nigeria, and I can tell you one thing to beware of. Nigerians are usually far weaker than you'd think by looking at them. It's probably a result of poor nutrition.

One of the guys I was with was a wirey Texan, about 5-10 160 pounds. He put $20 on a bar and said he'd give it to anyone who could beat him in arm wrestling. They were getting guys from the neighborhood to come in and try him. He never came close to losing, and he arm wrestled some guys who - had they been Americans - would have destroyed him.

I know the competition is laughable, but Asaboro’s HS highlights are reminiscent of Jadeveon Clowney’s display of speed, power and athleticism in HS.

I like his motor, but it's hard to tell just how good he really is. I always look at the opposing offensive lineman and it was clear he was at least 100 pounds heavier than just about all those lineman. I definitely think he's a project because it's easy to look great when you're playing inferior competition. I would like to see some film on him at some of the elite camps!

Ok, I'm late to the party, but holy fricking shite...

This kid is worth a scholly, even as an obvious project. He has good instincts and the reflexes of a cat. And when he gets a grip on somebody, it's over. Period.

On several of those plays on defense, he reached clear past the NT to his left to grab the QB or ball carrier and stop them in their tracks. Incredible length and range, and looks slow because of his size but he was running down backs and QBs from 10 yards behind them, so that speed perception is deceptive- he fast, real fast.

He's worth the risk based on high ceiling alone.
