[GoldenIsThyFame]

Only recruit I saw that had a ND rep sitting with him the whole game. You could tell he was just loving it. The student section did one hell of a job Saturday night.

Really excited about this kid. It would be great to get his commitment. Sounds like he had an amazing visit!

For those that haven't seen the stats from his Friday night game:

Sotonye “Soso” Jamabo had 484 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 31 carries

Yeah but that was only against Texas competition so it's not like it means very much...

 

[AgentJ]

siap, but how do you pronounce his last name?

 

[Riddickulous]

Juh-mah-bo, if I'm not mistaken.

Juh-may-bow is what I've heard others say.

 

[Big23Head]

Scout videos have said Juh-mah-bo to his face

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Juh-may-bow is what I've heard others say.

It would be very odd for a Nigerian surname to switch to a long "a" in the 2nd syllable. I think it's jah-MAH-bo.

 

[Irishman77]

Jay ohm abo

Juh-mah-bo, if I'm not mistaken.

You say Juh-mah-bo, I say Juh-may-bow.

Juh-mah-bo, Juh,may-bow, let's call the whole thing off.

I'll learn it from BK at the signing day press conference and call it a day!

This guy gets it!

 

[IHateMarkMay]

Fan base cannot decide on how to pronounce name, do not want.

 

[GoldenDomer]

So... what's his nickname gonna be?

 

[ACamp1900]

I pronounce it "Pimp"... rhymes with "Jamabo".

This guy's name is Soso. He does not need a nickname.

 

[connect the dots]

This guy's name is Soso. He does not need a nickname.

This guy's name is Sotonye - West African(Nigeria) God's will, heaven's purpose.

 

[Booslum31]

I can envision the entire stadium screaming a continuous "SOOOOOOOOOOOO....." Long "O"

 

[NDhoosier]

I can envision the entire stadium screaming a continuous "SOOOOOOOOOOOO....." Long "O"

Then every time that happens, the announcers have to make a comment that the fans are not booing him, they are... "sooing" him.

So we're getting pretty high remarks from Soso in this visit but he told Jason Howell at rivals that he'll be taking his OV's prior to decision. "ND has a bigger slice of the cake" at the present time because we've been his only official. Plans to visit A&M, Baylor, UCLA, and Oregon whether it be for OV's or unofficials. Might be at the UCLA vs. UT game this weekend.

Too bad he wasn't at UCLA vs. UVA or UCLA vs. Memphis.........

 

[Domina Nostra]

We're in good shape. We made our best impression. If he ultimately goes in a different direction, it wsa not meant to be...

I think you are on to something here. The Nigerian Nightmare has already been taken. One of my favorite sports nicknames belongs to a Baylor, Texas running back in the fifties - Long Gone Dupre(from his initials Louis George). So Long Gone Jamabo!

 

[PerthDomer]

I'm hoping for an ugly game with a UT win. Hopefully cross UCLA off his list and Texas goes on to suck afterwards anyways.

 

[Luckylucci]

Right, there offense against UVA was terrible. Considering they were returning a Heisman candidate it was even worse.
