Ohio LB adds SEC offer

Lewis Center (Ohio) Olentangy outside linebacker Drew Stevens has added two new offers, including an offer from an SEC program.

"I have two new offers from Ohio and the University of Kentucky," Stevens, who is 6-foot-4 and 218 pounds, said. "I already had offers from Akron and Kent, so the new offers are really exciting. I also have high interest in Boston College, Michigan State and Pitt."

Stevens, who has a 34-inch vertical leap and a 3.10 grade-point average, isn't going to rush the recruiting process.

"I'm kind of waiting to hear more from some other schools and have some visits scheduled," he said. "I'm hoping to receive some offers after I visit other places like BC, Michigan State and Pitt. That'd be something I'd really like."

At the NIKE Combine held at Capital University earlier this spring, he recorded a 4.53-second electronic 40-yard dash, plus he had a 32.4-inch vertical leap and had 19 reps in the bench press.

Stevens had a very solid junior season. He earned team most valuable player honors on offense as a junior after leaning his team in rushing yards, rushing average and was the school's second leading receiving. Plus, he was all-state special mention, all-conference, all-district and all-county also in 2006.
