Aruna Makes Final Decision

Ade Aruna

LaPorte (Ind.) La Lumiere School defensive end Ade Aruna committed to Tulane back on Jan. 18 before taking official visits to N.C. State and Rutgers the final two weekends leading up to National Signing Day.

A final decision is in for the 6-foot-6,230-pound Aruna, who has only played football one season after coming over to the United States from Nigeria as a basketball player.

"Ade will be sticking with his commitment to Tulane," La Lumiere School coach Art Walker said. "We are having the official signing at 11:30 (CT) at the school."

Aruna is ranked by 247Sports as the nation's No. 48 strong-side defensive end and the No. 12 prospect out of the state of Indiana.

As a senior, Aruna 75 tackles, seven sacks, two forced fumbles and two recoveries.
