Cunningham Emerges Onto 2010 Scene

Lakewood (Ohio) St. Edwards standout Seth Cunningham has now picked up two FBS offers and is on the hunt for more as he emerges as one of the better prospects the state has to offer.

Seth Cunningham is a name that not many have heard of as a rising senior in the class of 2010. He’s since started making some rounds to college camps and organized 7 on 7 tournaments, and has made a name for himself with his play.

“Every time I’m on the field I’m just a mean dude,” Cunningham explained to Scout.com. “But off the field, I’m just a really nice chilled out guy. I always watch and compare myself to Al Harris from the Packers. I notice he’s always in press man all the time, and he’s very physical.”

Those FBS schools that have offered him have seen the potential for the 6'1, 185-lb cornerback to have a career like Harris'.

“The only offers I have are from Akron and Cincinnati. They didn’t say much. Akron was just a surprise, one day I got the mail, and I got a letter saying they wanted to offer me a full ride. With Cincinnati, I was at there camp and that’s when they offered me.”

However, the Bearcats and Zips aren’t the only teams to notice Cunningham. Some heavy hitters are lining up to get a closer look at him.

“I’m talking to Michigan State, Ohio State, North Carolina, and Purdue. All those schools tell me if I can come to camp and do well, then I can get offered. All of them like my film but want to see me in person.”

While some of those stops will eventually make their way onto his list of visits, Cunningham is only set up to take the trek to East Lansing to visit the Spartans and hopes to come out with some good news.

“I’m going to Michigan State on July 11th, but I’m pretty busy with camps and summer camps and stuff. I just look forward to meeting all the coaches, and seeing all the weight rooms and facilities and stuff, and hoping that I’ll get an offer.”
