“It feels great,” Oladele said. “I’m really happy about it, really grateful for it. Auburn is one of the schools I wanted an offer from and I am blessed to now have it.”

Oladele has many reasons for his excitement in earning the offer.

“Auburn is a good community,” Oladele said. “And Auburn is a good school for education and a good school for football. I really like it at Auburn.”

Oladele added Auburn to his offer list that already included Florida, Florida State, Miami, Oregon, Mississippi State, South Carolina and Tennessee, among others. His performance Friday at Auburn’s camp impressed defensive line coach Rodney Garner.

“He likes me at defensive end,” Oladele said of Garner. “He’s a great coach. I really enjoyed working with him and he was impressed with what I did.”

Oladele likely will return to Auburn in the fall. He’s already considering the Tigers for one of his five official visits.

“Georgia, Tennessee, Auburn, FSU, Miami and Oregon are some of the schools I’m looking at right now,” Oladele said. “And I’ll probably be back to Auburn for an official visit. Auburn is a top choice for me.”

Oladele, who is 6-foot-5 and weighs 235 pounds, plans to take all five of his official visits before making a commitment.
