One of the visitors this past weekend. Top 3 on both 247 Recruiting & Rivals

His Hudl video (Sr highlights) is pretty impressive.

Was a hard-lean to Tennessee per 247. Interesting given the other story on the HS DE recruit who's scholly offer was pulled.

For J-Thomas it appears things changed as classes filled up. Wisky & Georgia Tech are his others & he'd be the 3rd or 4th RB in Wisky's class and the 6th or 7th RB in G-Tech's.

What y'all think? I'd be stoked if he committed.

Devine Ozigbo won't be anywhere near Nebraska's top choice for RB but he switched. Sometimes that isn't a huge difference maker for some guys. They've been told all their lives that they're the best player ever so they expect to go in and take over regardless of who is already there.

In an interview, he said he was sold on Nebraska because they wanted him to replace Abdullah.
 
Good size and speed. I'm glad to see CPR is recruiting some bigger running backs.

I assume Georgia Tech wants him as a fullback opposed to a wingback?
 
I like our chances, CPR,linguist, and ayeni visited him in-home this week so that sends a statement. As was mentioned if he goes to wisky he is one of several RBs they are already bringing in...I feel they would tell him rb and then switch him to LB...so if his heart is set on RB I'd say he comes here
 
A co-worker of mine who is originally from GA and follows GT very closely has been talking about this kid alot. GT was recruiting him but ended up getting a commitment from another RB and only had room for one, but my co-worker still says this guy would be a great RB
 
6'1", 210# & 4.49---if character and grades are in line, I'd take this kid in a heartbeat!! Man alive, I sure hope the staff can seal the deal with him!

I think that might be the rub with him. Really good LB too, from what I've read. One of those things where he wants to be a RB, but some programs are projecting him as a LB. Just depends on what he wants to be, and where he thinks he has the best chance to do that.

Interesting that if these are his top three (Wisc, GT, ISU). Both Wisc & GT already have 3 RB's committed for 2015. I realize that teams move RB's to other places because they are great athletes, but seems like they are already stacked at those positions. He would be a great pick up for us!

Georgia Tech essentially plays with three running backs so that doesn't surprise me a ton. Wisconsin makes a little bit less sense, a couple of those guys have to moving to the other side of the ball.

My GT guy here at work insists that he won't end up at GT.
