Scouting Ohio has the best video on him. He's pretty special in the open field.

Rivals has the latest article (Cincinnati leads at this point, but we just offered): http://colorado.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1083068

Running backs coach Darian Hagan recruits the Buckeye State from the Buffaloes' staff.

"I actually just started getting in contact with Colorado. They came by my school last week and offered me a scholarship," Washington said. "I don't really know too much about them. But they have told me that they would find ways to get me the ball and have also told me that I could be a helpful playmaker to their team."

Supposedly we're in his top 4 with Cincinnati, Duke and UCLA. He's supposed to announce next week. (Smart money's on him staying in-state.)

Is there a requirement that if you are named Shaquille and play football you MUST play WR?

So if Shaquille O'neil had played football he would have lined up at WR. That would be interesting, especially against some of those smaller corners. On the other hand imagine him on the crackback block.
