Buffaloes Add Another To The Class

by roxbombers on Nov 12, 2008 9:14 PM MST

According to ESPN, the Colorado Buffaloes have added another recruit to their class. A 6'2 180 pound DB named Deji Olatoye from Ohio. ESPN hasn't scouted him, but was significant enough to be added to their update column. Deji visited Boulder the weekend of the Iowa State game.

Looks like rivals also hasn't scouted him but has him listed running the 40 at 4.52.

Here are the links to ESPN and Rivals.

Looks like a close W against ISU may have been a good thing

He was in attendance at the game i guess, hopefully the bigger names follow suit and commit in coming weeks

well

One was a grade scare, and his suspension for a game or two for pot smoking.

keep in mind

that in Ohio, to attend the state universities and to play college sports, you must be in the upper half of your graduating class other wise you will not qualify.

I'm not sure

i’m not sure how that fits, but.. its not a flame. I’m just telling you what has happen to him.

First off yes, I’m a Buckeye fan, but Buffs is another team I follow and root for. Living in Nubraska, its fun to wear my Buff apparel just to tick them off.

ha ha ha...Yeah I heard he was suspended

didnt know it was for pot. My big question by raising Maurice Clarett was if he graduated in the top half of his class. Doesn’t seem possible. Glad to have you on here Jester.

even though their starting qb,rb are out, its still a rival. and tressle still plays to close to the vest.

It wont be any more than 10-14 point win.

Sounds like he'll fit right in at CU

Here's hoping Kasa and Logan follow suit

Saw Logan is looking hard at Colorado now that UW has had a horrendous season.

and to his teammate McDougle

Word on the Ohio State board is that he is favoring Colorado. He would of stayed at OSU until he ran into a little bit of trouble his senior year. Now all I have are rumors on why he was cut loose but if you want I could email it to you, if you really want to know.

But I do hope that he does end up at Colorado.

not sure why tho

His committment

was pretty surprising, to be honest. If we lose him, I’ll be disappointed because we need safety help, but I really don’t know anything about him as a prospect. Wouldn’t be the end of the world, but it seems the Buffs are starting to build up some much needed momentum and if he de-commits, it’s just another chink in the armor.

Any info on Olatoye?

Most websites had sparse info about him. Anyone know anything else besides the basics?

by MDBuff on Nov 13, 2008 10:39 AM MST 0 recs

nothing too much on him yet. He has only been playing football for two years

but is a starter on both sides of the ball. 6-foot-2, 180-pound defensive back from Dublin (Ohio) Scioto. Has a 6’8" wingspan. Fast at a 4.5 forty. I thinking he has the build of a Jimmy Smith but not as filled out but faster. My guess is the Buffs put some weight on him and stick him at safety, especially with the possibility of Willie Kennedy not qualifying.
