O'Donnell With Eight

Doylestown, Pa., native Jake O’Donnell has already managed to reign in eight scholarship offers and the defensive lineman spoke to Scout.com on Wednesday night about who is in the mix for him and his most recent visit to Miami.

Jake O’Donnell, a 6-foot-6, 235-pound defensive end from Central Bucks East High School is starting to really pick up steam in recruiting and we spoke with him to see which schools are on him most seriously.

“Right now I have offers from Miami, North Carolina, Syracuse, West Virginia, Temple, Old Dominion, VMI and Stony Brook,” O’Donnell said. “Boston College is hot on my tail as is Maryland.”

“I’ve been out on a lot of visits, especially over the spring,” O’Donnell stated. “I was at Connecticut, Rutgers and just went to Miami this past weekend.”

“My trip to Miami was great and the weather is unbelievable,” O’Donnell explained. “The campus was gorgeous and it was just a great time. We got to take a tour on Friday and meet a lot of coaches and then just got a feel for the atmosphere and everything. Then on Sunday I went to camp and must have done well as they offered me right when I got back to Pennsylvania.”

As a junior, Jake O'Donnell registered 43 tackles, four tackles, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and four pass knockdowns.
