He is visiting Syracuse today according to Rivals, so my guess would be next weekend.

That would be sweet if we could get him, he is going to be a game changer at the next level.

Oh yeah, I remember that guy. Didn't he back off when we were going to Franklin's spread? he's a good little back.

[Crouching Tiger 76]

Rivals has now revised his page showing he will visit us January 30th. What a weekend of visitors that will be!!!!

What a mega weekend!  Maybe all those offensive guys will look around at each other and say, man, what a unit we could be!

Do you have a list of OL and DL? we need some in a big way.

David Oku Biography: Runningback, 5-10, 185, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

2008 (Sr.): 5,802 career yards in four years, 68 touchdowns (school record); 1,905 yards, 23 touchdowns on 248 carries.

2007 (Jr.): 1,628 yards with 20 touchdowns.

2006 (Soph.):1,462 yards with 19 touchdowns.

2005 (Freshman): 807 yards with six touchdowns.

Senior: Oku rushed for over 200 yards and four touchdowns in only two games (1-1).

Oku: "I have great vision. That's my biggest strength. I can also read defenses good and I have the ability to get by the defender. I think I'm a Joe McKnight (USC running back)-type. I can be used in many different ways.

"I'm hoping to grow about two more inches. If I keep taking my vitamins and stuff, I think it'll happen. I'm also trying to get faster and work on my quickness. I'm always trying to get better and in the off-season I've just focused on running and hitting the weights."

I would love to steal one or two away from Tenn.

Your very welcome my friend.

This is exactly the case. He was all about coming to AU, but when TF was hired he backed off and we backed off as well.  Excellent RB with a ton of upside.  He would be a huge pickup.

I hope he is blown away this weekend.  He is an excellent back!

[auburn4ever 1,266]

We really need an awesome RB. Seems like it's been forever since we had backs like Ronnie and Carnell.

Go Get'em coaches!!!!!!!!

Onterio and David = Ronnie and Carnell (in a few years) ?
