Olaniyan picks up seventh offer
Just last week Woodberry Forest (Va.) Woodberry Forest School athlete Aramide Olaniyan received an offer from Auburn.
Auburn was the sixth school to offer the talented junior, joining the likes of Boston College, Duke, Maryland, Stanford and Wake Forest.

Now a seventh school has offered the 6-foot-2, 201-pound versatile athlete.
"Coach Beatty from West Virginia just sent me an e-mail saying he was going to offer," Olaniyan said on Wednesday afternoon during a brief conversation.
"I still need to give him a call tonight, though."
Does Olaniyan have any first impressions of the Mountaineers, despite only knowing about the offer for a few hours?
"I am very excited," he exclaimed. "They're a championship team and I'm looking forward to finding out more about them."
In addition to the seven schools that have offered, Olaniyan has been entertaining a lot of interest from Virginia and North Carolina -- two schools he admits he has a high level of interest in.
To this point, however, Olaniyan has refrained from listing a favorite.
As a junior for Woodberry Forest School he recorded 51 tackles and an eye-popping 27 tackles for loss, to go along with 13 sacks.
