BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – Senior wide receivers Abdul-Fatai Ibrahim and Odieu Hiliare join Bowling Green football's official podcast at BGSU in episode two of season two.
"Fly with Us" is available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify (search Fly With Us). BGSU's assistant athletics director for strategic communications Vincent Briedis conducts in-depth interviews as fans can get to know various members of the 2023 Falcons.
Ibrahim (Miramar, Fla.) comes to BGSU after earning FCS All-American honors at Alabama A&M. He joined the Alabama A&M squad after walking on from a tryout. Ibrahim and Hiliare were teammates for three seasons.
Hiliare (Belle Glade, Fla.) returns for his senior year after earning second-team All-MAC honors. He led BGSU with 58 receptions and 747 receiving yards. He had a career-high 246 receiving yards on eight receptions and two touchdowns in the 2022 win at Toledo. His 246 receiving yards at Toledo are No. 3 on BGSU's single-game ledger and No. 11 on the MAC's single-game list.
"The snow made it like a movie really," said Hiliare about BGSU's win at Toledo in 2022. "It was a rivalry game so all those outside factors didn't matter. Being from South Florida with the snow, it was like a movie. I thought I could have a good game, but I didn't think it would be like that (246 receiving yards). We had Mr. Houdini, TK [Ta'ron Keith] with the game winner. Once he got the ball, I was behind him and watching him run and then he ran through two people. I started sprinting because it was over and he scored. Then he got the two-point conversion."
