Patrick Omameh

When Omameh was in fourth grade, he did not know what American football was and when he asked his father about it, his father brought out a soccer ball. One of the football coaches persuaded Patrick's parents to let him play, offering to take him to and from practice every day. On the first day of football practice, he wore sandals and a wristwatch.{{Cite web |last=Snyder, Mark |date=November 22, 2012 |title=Michigan offensive lineman Patrick Omameh a star on, off field |url=http://www.freep.com/article/20121122/SPORTS06/311220174/Michigan-wolverines-Patrick-Omameh-a-star-on-off-field |access-date=November 29, 2012 |website=Detroit Free Press}} As a senior at St. Francis DeSales High School in Columbus, Ohio, Omameh was selected as a 2007 Division II All-Ohio first team offensive lineman and member of The Columbus Dispatch All-metro team.{{Cite web |date=November 27, 2007 |title=Division I, II All-Ohio football selections |url=http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/sports/2007/11/27/hsfx27_ART_11-27-07_C6_1Q8JL1S.html |access-date=November 28, 2012 |website=The Columbus Dispatch |archive-date=December 26, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151226090037/http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/sports/2007/11/27/hsfx27_ART_11-27-07_C6_1Q8JL1S.html |url-status=dead }}{{Cite web |last=Blackledge, Steve |date=December 3, 2007 |title=Stoudt, Machen lead all-star team: Quarterback, linebacker come of age as seniors |url=http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/sports/2007/12/01/hsfb_all-metro01.ART_ART_12-01-07_C7_1R8KVBU.html |access-date=November 28, 2012 |website=The Columbus Dispatch |archive-date=December 26, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151226094623/http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/sports/2007/12/01/hsfb_all-metro01.ART_ART_12-01-07_C7_1R8KVBU.html |url-status=dead }} He was a straight-A student recruited by the likes of Princeton University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Omameh redshirted as a freshman for the 2008 Michigan Wolverines.
