Roswell (GA) defensive end prospect Emmanuel Awofadeju was all set to schedule his official visits this year, when basketball season arrived. Now, the 6-5, 220 pound prospects’ recruiting trips are up in the air.

“I had some dates scheduled for my official visits,” said Awofadeju. “But then my basketball coach came and went to my football coach to see if we could rearrange some of my visits so I could play in some of our team’s big games. It was unexpected, I would think they could win a game or two without me, but we’ll see.

“I know who I will visit, and that’s Maryland, Stanford, Notre Dame, Virginia, and maybe Tennessee. I have offers from everyone except Tennessee and Notre Dame.”

Awofadeju has a tentative trip scheduled for Maryland for January 3, although he is confident he will make that date. He has talked to Stanford about visiting on January 10 but may switch the trip to January 17. He has talked with Virginia about possibly visiting next weekend, but he is doubtful that he will make the trip.
