Aw, DN, Brown, Standard, Warren, Syria and Justin Webster off the top of my head. This isn't the kind of guy you pass on due to numbers, if that's what your thinking.

Our running back recruiting last year was great getting Syria and Warren, so getting Ozigbo just adds to that, he might be the best of the 3, hard to tell yet. Our new RB coach Ayeni is really getting it done on the trail.

Esp when (nothing against any of those guys, just a fact) Wimberly is the only guy in that group that has done anything.

STARZ! OFFERZ! :biglaugh:

In all seriousness though what an awesome get! It makes you wonder how many potential commits we miss out on just because they choose not to visit because of our reputation (or lack of..) in football. We have an amazing school, campus, fans, and football facilities that many recruits can't appreciate until they actually see it all in person.

Welcome to Cyclone Nation Devine!

Now that dude is built like a running back! Looks great on film. We need a guy with some muscle that can hit the hole with some speed. Haven't had one of those in awhile.

Personally, I think Michael Warren will be the best of the 3, although him and Ozigbo are very different backs IMO, so I think they will both be used a lot.

Warren is 6'1" and 185 lbs and runs a 4.3 40.

Ozigbo is 5'11" and 225 lbs and runs a 4.7 40.

Warren is a LOT more explosive with his speed. He can take one the distance at any time. Ozigbo breaks tackles, runs people over, and drags people with him, but can also make a good cut to avoid people as well. It will be awesome to have both guys!

Looking ahead a bit, our offense could be downright scary if we can find a QB. Guys like Lazard, D'Vario Montgomery, Dondre Daley, Wesley, etc at WR and Warren and Ozigbo at RB. Nice. I'm kinda hoping Run DLC ends up being a total stud at QB for us down the road. He seems like he could be a real dual threat QB if he can throw it accurately.

Originally he did say he would take two more visits but then this was posted:

Trey Scott @Trey_Scott3 · 2h

Devine Ozigbo also told me he doesn't have any other official visits scheduled. Solid to Cyclones

Correct. And has stated that he would consult with Cyclone Coaches as to what they wished concerning taking any visits. IMO, they would likely say that they are fully committed to him and want him fully committed as well.

On a side note, the Hawks lost out on Ozigbo and now it sounds like they could lose out on their other RB target, Aca'Cedric Ware who sounds like is headed to USC.
