BYU Steals 5-Star DL Splat Onomatopoeia from USC, Alabama, Ohio State and Texas
They Couldn't Spell His Name Correctly
Football Early Letter of Intent Signing Day begins tomorrow. BYU may have whiffed, fizzled and plunked on on some potential recruits, but they absolutely cha-chinged it with the 6-6, 320 No.1 rated prep from Guffaw HS in Texas.
When asked why he picked BYU, Onomatopoeia said they were the only school that could spell and define his name correctly.
For the record, Onomatopoeia means: the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named (e.g. cuckoo, sizzle ).
For example. BYU usually is only able to scrape by in recruiting compared to the big boys. They have had their share of splats, burps and fizzles when it comes to big name recruits. Tomorrow should be a Hellogg of a day, oops, I meant Kellogg of a day for BYU football recruiting…as in Snap, Crackle and Pop.
Sorry for the plop of onomatopoeia into the letter. I first heard the word in 7th grade and have been ding-dong over the word since.
You can click on BYU’s football website tomorrow for all the latest news and we can go cuckoo together.
Watch below for video of Onomatopoeia at Guffaw HS. He is the last guy to take a hit and remain standing. Talk about tough!
