Don’t look now, but Josh Nunes isn’t the only highly-touted football prospect from Upland. Teammate Osahon Irabor has emerged as legitimate West Coast recruit, too. In fact, the 5-foot-11 junior wideout/defensive back picked up a pair of scholarship offers over the past couple of days.

Northwestern extended an invitation Tuesday and Wyoming stepped up to the plate over the weekend, making that six offers from Division I programs since Irabor’s first, from Arizona toward the end of March. Arizona St., Cal and Oregon are among the others waiting for a commitment.

‘It’s great to see that colleges across the country are taking notice of my talents,’ Irabor said. ‘It’s been a goal of mine to work hard in everything I do... It’s great to see my hard work paying off. I want to make it clear to the colleges who are interested in me that I’m wide open.’
