Kansas beats Indiana and Ohio State for four-star TE Mason Oglesby
New Palestine (Ind. ) four-star tight end Mason Oglesby has announced his college commitment, choosing Kansas during a live broadcast Friday night on the Rivals YouTube channel. The Rivals300 recruit chose to play Lance Leipold and the Jayhawks over his other finalists in Indiana, Ohio State and North Carolina.
Offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki had a lot to do with Ogelsby’s decision to play in Lawrence. “At the end of the day I felt like I needed to choose what’s best for me,” Oglesby said. “I feel like being in an offense that features me the best it can, being around the guys you’re comfortable with and the opportunity to compete early set them apart.
I know coming to a school like that I can contribute to success early. “The offensive coordinator he’s one of the best in the business. He came from Penn State.
He coached Tyler Warren. He told me a lot of different ways he’d feature me in the offense. It’s really eye-opening.
On top of the staff it’s that down-home feel. I got along with the guys. They have a good development program.
