Wahtola recently took a trip to North Dakota State’s junior day and has had coaches in from Illinois State and Iowa over the last month.  Surprised that more G5 programs are not actively recruiting and offering this defensive end from the Chicago Catholic League.  At 6’3” he has burst off the snap and excellent use of his hands.  Technically sound edge rusher with strength that can also slide inside as a nascar rusher!
