Ronnie Wingo RB 6'2 190 4.40 St. Louis University Missouri

Wingo really exploded onto the scene as a sophomore, carrying the ball 262 times for 1419 yards (5.4 ypc) and 11 TDs through his team's first ten games. He is a tall, long-striding runner who has the speed to get to the corner and go the distance. Wingo finished fourth in the Missouri Class 4 100-meter dash (10.84 seconds) and seventh in the 200 (22.11) as a freshman. Could wind up converting to WR in high school if he gets any taller. One of the top young prospects in the midlands.

Speaking of stepping up, that's exactly what Wingo did on the game's first play.

The 6-foot-2, 206-pound running back took the first play from scrimmage 80-yards for a touchdown. He bolted through the line on the left hand side on a simple dive play and before the linebackers or safeties could even get near him he was gone untouched for the score.

There's no question that Wingo is one of the fastest players in St. Louis and that touchdown run was a perfect example. When he was a freshman he won the AAU Junior Olympics national championship in the 200 meters, and he's been clocked as fast as 10.78 seconds in the 100 meters.

"I know Ron Zook at Illinois was impressed with him when he was up there, and they offered him on the spot. He's about as big of a can't miss guy that we've had around here in a long time."

ShowMeSports Player Intro: Ronnie Wingo

SLUH Jr. Billiken RB Ronnie Wingo 6`2" 210 has been marked as one of the top prospects in the state of Missouri for the 2009 class by college coaches from around the region and country. Already with offers from Missouri, Illinois, Minnesota and Tennesee, Wingo continues to hear from more schools on a dailey basis from around the country. Which is easy to understand if he has seen the 6`2" 210lb Wingo run with the football or shut down oppossing receivers with his blazing 4.4 speed. I caught up with Ronnie and talked about how recruiting was going with him.
"I`m hearing from alot of schools now. I have offers from Mizzou,Illinois,Minnesota and Tennessse, and I am also hearing from Florida, Rutgers, Iowa,North Carolina,Nebraska and others." said Wingo. "I don`t have any timetable for making a decision and I am open to everyone at this time and will wait and see who comes to offer me." he continued........
