Andrew Chirico (bucknut522.blogspot.com) interview of 2014 Defensive End Jesse Aniebonam
Q: How do you like playing for your high school?
Jesse: I love it, it’s an amazing program, my coaches are great and I am getting great exposure.
Q: What schools are showing interest?
Jesse: I have three offers from Auburn, Hawaii and Maryland. I am also getting looked at from several other colleges as well.
Q: Any other schools showing high interest without an offer?
Jesse: Ohio State is in my top seven. I really love the school and the team. The program as a whole is very good too. To land an offer from them would be amazing.
Q: Whats your opinion of Ohio State?
Jesse: It is a great school, nice people, amazing football program and the location is manageable.
Q: What are your seven? ( No Order)
Jesse: My seven includes Maryland, Virginia, Clemson, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia Tech and Auburn.
Q: Describe your game.
Jesse: As a strong side defensive end I am usually going to be in the three point. I am more of an aggressive player and my coaches favor the fact that I have the size.I am usually quicker and faster than the tackles and tight ends that I would be set up against. So, I use that to my advantage.
Q: What do you plan on improving on?
Jesse: Mainly just working on my hand progressions, such as more swim and rip move techniques.
Q: When do you plan on committing?
Jesse: I hope the summer before my senior season.
Q: Any visits?
Jesse: I have visited Georgia Tech and have gone to a few other camps so far.
Q: What do you look for in a program?
Jesse: I mainly look for how the coaches really facilitate and coordinate their knowledge into their players. Also, how they interact and run the program. I wouldn’t really be looking for a coach to baby me in any sort of way. The general area of the school is also a good factor.
Q: What are your max outs?
Jesse: Bench 285, squat 505 and power clean 275.
Q: What do you do off the field?
Jesse: Mainly, just working out almost everyday. I also enjoy going to the pool with a teammate of mine to swim laps for our conditioning.
