Very impressive list & congrats to the young man, but does anyone find it odd or disappointing that the home state UK, U of L or WKU has yet to offer & neither has the school right across the river from Park Hills?

I definitely am with you there. Granted, I'm not an OC or recruiter for any of those programs, I have no idea what TE needs they have or what they have in their pipelines, but I definitely have taken notice of the fact that none of those folks have offered.

Wait until he camps at those places this Summer.

Will give those coaches a close up look at him. I follow one of those teams closely and they have recruited TEs really well and are loaded at the position.

He's not been completely off their radars...no offers yet though.

With Guidugli heading up to Notre Dame and Fickell at Wisconsin, I'm curious if Willie starts hearing from either of those.

It appears he's definitely on Coach Satt's radar most. He was hearing from his staff at UofL and is now at UC. Not sure about Stoops and company, though.

There is a certain tight end that just got done at Notre Dame, he may be able to put in a good word for him.  ?  I would to see him follow in Michael's footsteps.  This kid is going to be a stud as well.

Coastal Carolina and Liberty University have offered.  Willie also visited Penn State and Pitt over the weekend.

Wow. Willie is getting into a new level of offer now. He could easily end up playing in the new expanded playoff if he decided to go to Ole Miss. I assume they also have a real competitive NIL package too. 

The fact he’s getting these with good (not great) size and good (not great) athleticism let's you know how good of a football player coaches like Kiffin and Fleck think he is. Certainly not a height-weight-speed project. 

Might be the best player in the state this year. 

10. No gambling, bookmaking or point spread comments are allowed in any of the high school forums. Figures of speech that use gambling terms may not be used in any of the high school forums (i.e. bet, over/under, spread, parlay, chips, line, odds, wager). All gambling comments are permitted in the non-high school forums as long as they do not involve any high school sports, students, or student-athletes.

Spot on.  I think he’s too small for TE and he has basically no stats. Kinda weird all the hype.  Probably gonna be a project of special teams.

When this many teams offer you, it isn't hype. It's facts.

Spot on right here.  No hype as that is ridiculous.  Kid is a beast and delivers on both sides of the ball.

Special teams projects don't get this many high-level offers from power 5 schools. As far as size, he's plenty tall, and has a frame that could easily add 20 lbs, which puts him in the 240-250lbs range. Not to mention he's a really good athlete...he's a very good wrestler (finished 5th in the state this year and could wrestle in college if he wanted to), which I'm sure is helping him get some of these offers, as many of those skills translate to the football field. Who knows how his college career turns out, but he has all the measurables big schools are looking for. High school stats don't mean nearly as much as everyone thinks when it comes to college recruiting, and are often not really a true indicator of a players top line ability. Lots of players put up great or even mind blowing stats, and don't have the tools to play college football at any level, let alone at the schools that Willie is getting offers from.

Since he received his Ole Miss offer Willie has received offers from South Florida, Illinois, South Carolina, Texas Tech, and Purdue.
