Robinson defensive end Olu Hall is having quite the busy Spring. He is not visiting any schools – well, except for the Virginia Tech spring game – and he is not thinking much about which school he wants to attend. Instead, Hall is focused on three things – getting stronger, getting better, and, most importantly, getting his academics in order.

“These days, I’ve basically been living in the weight room and eating,” said Hall. “I’m only about 210 pounds right now, and my goal is to be around 230 by the time the season starts. I watch film twice a day, usually during my lunch period, to study my performance over my sophomore and junior seasons. Most of all, I’ve been focused on my academics. I didn’t do all that well my freshman and sophomore seasons, so I need to keep focused. This year has been good, but I need to keep it going.

“I haven’t had time to think about which school I will choose for college. I’m really wide open right now. I really don’t know where I will go.”

Just because he has not thought about recruiting much doesn’t mean he does not appreciate the early attention. Hall has received early offers from UVa, Virginia Tech, Boston College, Clemson, and Syracuse. The early offers have had a sort of combined effect for Hall – he is excited to already have offers, however he knows he needs to work hard to reach the next level.
