Recruiting Analyst

Four-star running back/cornerback Rodney Glass (5-11, 170, 4.3) from Sherman Oaks (Calif.) Notre Dame is living up to his reputation as one of the Golden State's most explosive players.

While helping his team to a perfect 7-0 record, the talented running back has rushed for 1,031 yards and 17 rushing touchdowns while averaging 10.5 yards per carry.

Glass has also been used as a weapon for his pass receiving skills. He has eight receptions for 107 yards and one touchdown.

Glass plays both ways as he has added cornerback to his list of duties. Though the opposition avoids throwing to his man, he still has one interception.

Though Glass will probably end up as a running back, he does enjoy playing defense.

"It's fun to play defense," Glass said. "You get to hit people."

So far Glass has eight offers on the table from Boston College, Ole Miss, Arizona State, Oregon State, Washington, San Diego State and UNLV.

Glass hasn't set up any trips as of yet.

"I will probably start thinking about visits after the season in early December," Glass said. "I will have a better idea of what is going on recruiting wise by then."

"USC and UCLA are the top schools amongst the schools that haven't offered," Glass said. "Out of the schools that have offered, I like UNLV, Washington and Arizona State."

Regarding what colleges he will visit, Glass is playing it by ear.
