SU Target Ebenezer Ogundeko’s Retweets Show Support From All 3 Finalists

The Brooklyn defensive menace is playing his final days before deciding close to the vest.

New York State’s top footballer Ebenezer Ogundeko just tweeted “Time waits for no man.” And that sums up the drumbeat march to his decision in four days.

Tuesday is a potentially monumental day for Syracuse football. When Doug Marrone took over four years ago, it was uncertain where the Orange train was headed. Groobers had driven it into the side of a mountain, carnage for the entire nation to see. But after dragging the carcass back up the Hill, and fostering important relationships throughout New York State and the five boroughs, Ebenezer Ogundeko’s decision may well set SU onto a different course.

Marrone tried to land Ishaq Williams, Jarron Jones and Chad Kelly. All of these Empire State products chose bigger programs (Notre Dame and Clemson). But Marrone told me at Big East Media Day last summer that when they finally landed one of the big fish in-state, it would likely lead to others. But Doug warned me it had to be the right kid. The type of student-athlete who wouldn’t be swayed by the peer pressure of going somewhere with more cache.

Where will Ebo choose? No idea. I do believe it’s extraordinarily close and Syracuse stands a really good shot. Judging from his Twitter, he’s playing it very cool. Ogundeko is a regular tweeter, and responds to a high number of his followers. But he also has retweeted supporters equally from all three of his finalists, pushing for him to choose their school. Pretty clever.

Florida RT’s:

“i am just looking at your highlight tape, wishing and hopen you become part of gatornation! We need u bra.” – @KidPoet12

#GatorNation¬†blow up¬†@Ebenezer_O_1¬†and tell him why he needs to be a¬†#gator” -¬†@UFHeim

¬†Syracuse RT’s:

@GodsGiftGUS¬†@Ebenezer_O_1¬†Today the SU campus was full of past&present Syracuse FBall stars & legends. But you guys are the future of¬†#CUSE” –¬†@eric_ennis

“I am cause I cant sleep, I keep reading articles hoping you come to¬†#CUSENATION!” – @MLomo3

Notre Dame RT’s:

“I’m a huge fan of yours! Been watching your football highlight, hoping you choose to join the¬†#IrishMob13″ -¬†@Herring_justin

“knowing your gonna be Irish Is perfect a perfect chance for the best education on earth!!!” – @DustinThomas2

Ogundeko has retweeted one peer, Irish commit Jaylon Smith, a LB from Fort Wayne, IN.

“IRISH fans tell¬†@Ebenezer_O_1¬†tht making a40year decision not just a 4 year one is the best decision to make , you benefit way more from that”¬†

For what it’s worth, Ebo’s Twitter background is a Nike wallpaper titled “Fast is Faster.” He just took part in Nike’s The Opening camp in Oregon. Syracuse and Florida are Nike schools. Notre Dame is an Adidas one.
Too much? Yeah, I thought so.

    I like our chances. Did Ishaq even see the field last year? I understand he was a true freshman but I have a feeling he’s buried on the depth chart and may not see the field until junior or senior year. If he comes to SU he’s a special teamer as a freshman and most likely a starter by sophomore season. I don’t think that ND offers anything that Syracuse can not. THey are both great academic institutions in fairly small rust belt cities. ND does get 80K every game, however 49,950 in a Dome is louder and more fun to play in than most venues. If EO comes to SU, he started Freshman year and becomes the face of the defense along with Wayne Williams for the next couple of years. Marrone and staff deserves a lot of credit for sticking with the recruiting plan. They knew there would be disappointments along the way, but perseverance has paid off and you can see the NY pipeline starting to take shape. Here’s to 4 years of EO! G’ORANGE

    Ishaq played last year as a rfeshman but didn’t put up very good numbers and was not the starter.

    Regardless if OE chooses us The Fizz needs to move on in the quest for the next big fish on zDou’s list . Officer Laray or the one after that. It doesn’t matter if the prospect is in this state or another . ,we need to move on . The OE decision has been made in the kid’s mind we need to presume thw worse and move on.

    Why do we need to presume the worst?

  6. D.A. Avatar

    Yeah, I don’t think we have to assume the worst. Its an exciting time for SU football fans with a terrific summer for Marrone. EO would be the icing on the cake – but either way, this will be a very quality class and the SU coaching staff deserves kudos for it.

    “Dont assume the worst, dont move on, live in the moment.. (exhale) .. its exciting for SU to be mentioned every time EO is brought up”
    Advice from the Dip

    Either way….Smith & Officer are watching and waiting ! Other recruits as well, if SU goes bowling.. floodgates could burst next summer.. officially titled “the ACC summer”!!!!

    Wat if SU gets S&O, and miss on EO? Would our class still get an early knod as strong with those 10 recruits?

    Sure Bigdipper,with or w/out EO if Smith and Officer come this would be a groundbreaking class…2 or 3 more solid 3*type’s we should have top 40 something class!!but EO would solidify it!!

    I agree with Lou also there is just a different feeling with EO then a David Perkins you look at what’s around him and what would be around him at Syracuse and it just makes sense and once he falls you can most likely count on an officer or smith to follow

    The Maiami sweater, produced of thick, warm and soft pure wool, is attractive, cheeky and sometimes somewhat evil especially with the selected themes: images inspired by international “symbols” that happen to be commonly identified by means of media of the present day pop and mass culture (souvenirs, tv series, poster booklets and packaging). As a chunky knit motif they develop their own dynamic expression, usually having a sure irony.

    The way in which Maiami combines the conventional handcraft with modernity plus the spirit of the time, is what makes the Maiami sweater extraordinary, captivating and stylish.

    Stripes are the pre dominant colour pattern plus they are represented in a number of ways while in the new collection: two coloured sweaters produced from sporty tricot, multi coloured rainbow sweaters, and colourful Mexico themed pieces. Also, a Norwegian style pattern is additional on the collection. Hints of tradition may be present in types such as the Balkan blouse with its braid patterns and accompanying accessories.

    The answer to this question is by learning fundamental plumbing solutions.

    Any time just one moves and also buys a dream residence of choice all
    is well unless you confront problems with which. Toilet tanks should be checked on regular basis
    against leakage. He hammers and hammers, and saws and saws,
    (pretend to hammer and saw). I will walk you threw the process of a Price Pfister shower valve
    repair, and get that valve working again. For a job in one’s home a plumber who
    is trained and experienced in this area should be contacted.
    This can be especially important if a water pipe or
    water heater has begun leaking. Scheduling work on a weekend or holiday
    is one way to end up paying more for plumbing services.

    Most of the people ignored this woman but I wondered, protect me from what.
    ‘Plumbing snakes and tools purchased at local hardware stores are
    not usually as powerful as the equipment professional plumbing services utilize.
