She’s really strong on Stanford but supports me about whatever decision I make.” Odighizuma added Trim The List More “This summer I’m going to talk it over with my family, coaches and see which schools that I like, I’m comfortable with. I’m still searching and researching before I start narrowing things down. I’m looking for a regular town, just really good coaching. Coaches that can help me become a better student and athlete.” Odighizuma said Recruiting Attention “I see it as a blessing, I can’t complain,” says Odighizuma. “It can be a lot to deal with.

Meh. Dude on Gold Helmet says its UF, USC and Stanford. Oregon and Nebraska have an outside shot. He says he'll take all of his visits so hopefully he'll come in for a game and change his thinking.
