Finished with 24 TFL & 11.5 sacks last year in his first season of football.

LaVar Arrington, the former Penn State All-American and All-Pro linebacker for Washington, visited Nigeria on behalf of his foundation and found Betiku. He saw the way Betiku ran through drills, and sent back a video to a friend, who said, “He's just like you were.”

Arrington became Betiku's guardian and brought him to his home in Upper Marlboro, Md., and Betiku attended Bishop McNamara High. He did not play football during that sophomore year.

When Oluwole Betiku, a native of Nigeria, was first learning the rules and concepts of football last season at Gardena Serra, there were many teachable moments.

...there was the time he decided to grab the facemask of an offensive lineman.

"The guy brought his head straight into me," said Betiku, a defensive end. "I grabbed his helmet and ripped it off his head. I didn't know it was illegal. If they're allowed to hit me with their head, why can't I pull the helmet off?"

With a name like Wale, I'm guessing he is a big fish :)

Edit: Oh well, Wale, Wole, whatever

If a coach messaged me every day "relentlessly", I would change my number.

Just watched the film. Kid has a great motor and deceptive speed for a 6'4 250 lb DE. He's playing against some of the best HS competition and making it look easy. Want.
