Ihenacho arrives on Pac-12 radar
Glen Ihenacho knows all about the recruiting process because his brothers have been through it before and things have started to take off for him as well.
The 5-foot-11, 180-pound three-star safety from Gardena (Calif.) Serra has recently landed offers from Colorado, Oregon State, Washington and Washington State and other Pac-12 programs are showing interest.

His brother, Duke, plays for the Denver Broncos and his other brother, Carl, was with the Oakland Raiders recently. Both played at San Jose State.
Ihenacho especially stood out at the recent NLA 7on7 in Las Vegas but he said the programs recruiting him got involved a little earlier.
"Washington was talking to me and Colorado was talking to me because those coaches knew my brother," Ihenacho said. "They all introduced themselves before Vegas so I guess they saw my film."
It's still early for Ihenacho especially since his recruitment is just starting to get busy but he said Washington does stand out a little more than others at this point.
"Based on distance, I think Seattle sounds nice because it's only a couple states over and it's not too far so if I was trying to stay close to home I think Seattle looks good," Ihenacho said.
"Washington is looking pretty good right now."
No decision is expected soon, though, since Ihenacho is also hearing a lot from Boise State and UCLA early on.
More attention is expected leading into next season as well because Gardena Serra is coming off a state championship and it's expected to be in contention again with nearly a dozen Division I prospects on the team.
