Sachse outside linebacker Cheta Ofili had one of the quickest recruiting rises this off-season, and despite a recent commitment to Texas Tech, that hasn't slowed the offers from coming in.
Ofili entered the new year with just two offers to his name - Stephen F. Austin and Texas Tech - but has impressed at several camps such as the Next Level Texas Top 100 Showcase, the Under Armour Next Camp and most recently the Rivals Camp Series.
Now the 6-foot-4, 220 pound pass rusher is up to 14 total offers, including Buffalo, Arizona State and Tulsa in the past couple weeks.
RedRaiderSports caught up with Ofili from Rivals Camp to recap his commitment and get the latest.
