Oregon State Beavers land another recruit - lineman Alex Linnenkohl

Alex Linnenkohl from Olympia, WA verbally committed to the Oregon State Beavers football team today. Linnenkohl is 6-foot-2, 285 lbs and starts on both offense and defense for Capital High School. He also went to long-snapper camp this summer and is rated the third best long snapper in the country. He seems like a great kid with a good attitude. Plus, he really likes OSU and coach Mike Riley.

Here's the Scout.com profile of Alex:

AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
Size

Deceptively athletic; good speed for a man his size. Versatile player who can also long-snap. Very coachable, hungry and has an unquenchable thirst for the game. Height is only downside.

Capital won their first game against O'Dea. There are a few quotes in there by Alex.
Capital uses size to overpower O’Dea
