Adebo has offers from several powerhouses, including Texas, LSU, Georgia, Tennessee and Texas A&Mm and TCU could also be a sleeper. However, 247Sports' Crystal Ball projections have Adebo as "100 percent" committing to Stanford. This would be a huge commitment for Stanford coach David Shaw.
Adebo is listed at 6'2, 180 pounds, and he can play both wide receiver and cornerback. He is ranked as the No. 195 overall player in this recruiting class.
