Three new scholarship offers

Here are three new scholarship offers per Rivals.com...
Johnathan Feliciano, offensive tackle, Davie, Fla. Offers: Akron Height: 6-foot-4 Weight: 283 Speed: 5.31 Notes: Scout.com praised Feliciano as the best lineman at a recent Miami combine. I assume an Akron coach attended that combine, because the Zips have all but abandoned their southern Florida recruiting. Feliciano also has interest in Florida Atlantic, Florida State and Missouri.
Brandon Ifill, wide receiver, Pittsburgh Offers: Akron, Connecticut, Maryland, Michigan, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Purdue, Rutgers and West Virginia Height: 6-0 Weight: 174 Speed: 4.38 Notes: Scout.com lists Ifill as a safety -- the 17th best in the nation -- and gives him four stars. Pitt and Maryland are pursuing Ifill the hardest, Rivals.com reports.
Miles Osei, dual-threat quarterback, Mt. Prospect, Ill. Offers: Akron and Northern Illinois Height: 6-1 Weight: 185 Speed: Not listed Notes: As a junior, Osei passed for 2,200 yards, rushed for 1,200 yards and scored total 40 touchdowns. Assistant coach Brian Callahan is recruiting Osei, who said he needs more information about the program and would like to visit during the spring.
