Owamagbe Odighizuwa (Portland, Ore./Douglas) has set up his first three official visits and said there are seven schools on his short list.Odighizuwa is the top rated player in Oregon and a member of the ESPNU 150. He's a tremendous talent coming off the edge and has the size and athleticism to see the field early at the next level.
"I have three of my official visits set up and plan to take all five," Odighizuwa said. "UCLA is (Oct. 9), Cal is (Nov. 6) and Florida is (Nov. 27). I'm also setting visits with USC and Nebraska and will take unofficial visits to Oregon and Oregon State.
"Those are the schools I feel most comfortable with and the ones that have been recruiting me the hardest the past year. I don't have a leader among that group, everyone has a fair shot and I'll make my decision after I see all the schools. The trips will play a big role because I want to see how comfortable I am and where the best fit for me is on and off the field."
As a junior, Odighizuwa had a huge year earning all-state honors after totaling 96 tackles and 18 sacks.
