'25 MD LB Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng (Offer)

[laughingirish90]

scUM fans on the mgo blog site seem to think that they have a really good shot at getting him but like most i think once the the scUM visit wears off that he'll choose our irish just from the fact he has a great relationship with the irish staff and i think brother player a big role in this also

 

[irishnd31]

Keep going back to his quote, “ND is family”.
Until I see a post visit quote from him stating remotely close to that after visiting other schools , it’s a good sign.

 

[stpeteirish]

The one thing that bothers me...is it really true he only visited ND once with his brother? He never went to ND for games? If true, I think people are overemphasizing the brother connection here...

Since they have different last names I’m assuming they’re half brothers. If the shared parent is mama that’s probably a major plus for us but we really don’t know. Is it Mr Owosu or Mr Boatang?

Same mother, different fathers. In Ghanian culture, the Mother's family name comes first, followed by the Paternal family name.

JOK: Mrs Owusu, Mr Koramoah
NOB: Mrs Owusu, Mr Boateng

I believe I heard that they didn't grow up in the same household, and did not have the closest of relationships as children. They connected more as they got older.

 

[ResLife Hero]

JOK had a full brother he grew up with, and this article mentions they were raised by a single mother:

Man charged in death of Joshua Emmanuel Owusu-Koramoah, older brother of Browns LB

No mention of Nathaniel for whatever reason

Agree 100%. Imagine your brother being a stud for a championship contender and not going to a game, even just senior day.

Heard this as well

Probably more of a cousins type relationship

Or perhaps maybe we could get lucky and JOK is our influential Uncle ace-in-the-hole in this instance, except of course it would be for the right reasons

Would be a shame if Mich fans felt like they lost a recruit due to a meddling Uncle getting in the way and tainting things for them

 

[Irish#1]

I see the sweaty palms are going to be standard around here until he announces.

 

[NDWarrior]

He knows where he's going...

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Damn, that hat makes me feel better and worse at the same time.

 

[ab2cmiller]

You could tell straight away that Gorney didn't like him touching his mic. LOL

Recruiting reporters are the cringiest people on the planet.

You didn't like that flex?

I swear, if any of you ever hear me ask for another dude to flex, let alone a hs kid, I give you full permission to stuff me in a barrel of acid.

I'm not sure what that says about us yahoos that follow high school recruits?

Speak for yourself. I’m only here for the lifelong friendship and bonds I’ve created with people on this board that I don’t want to meet in person.

Correct, connected in the past few years

Yeah, but we know where you live. You'll have a crew of IE "friends" as guests every home game weekend!

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

My impression from that interwiew:
He doesn't want to be Irish and that's ok.

 

[CoachB]

My impression of that interview. He knows that ND is the place to be.

Horrible take.

 

[NDpendent]

If I didn't hear his insights on the other 4 schools I would have said the same. It's just his personality

All are welcome. Ill be in my tree fort anyway that I made behind Marcus manor.

I need a place to stay for MSU week in a couple years. Think I found the spot.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

Ill make an exception.

COOL! We can start a club.

For my initiation dues... I've got 3 Stroh's tall boy w/ pull tabs, a half tin of Kodiak and the July 1982 issue of Hustler.

And I'll even get a pedicure if that's required of Barefoot Brigade members.

I hope the people in your development are cool with some people doing naked laps late at night.
