'16 GA DE Chidi Okonya (FORMER UT commit 5/15/15)

[Darth_Shiveman]

'16 Senior Highlights | 4.0 GPA - Chidi Okonya highlights

Okonya looks like he has all the tools to be a really good edge rusher for us. He's gonna need a redshirt year to bulk up and work on that technique though. He was popping straight up out of his stance on a lot of those plays.

Coach Strip should get that fixed no problem.

I'm glad that now we have the opportunity to RS the kids that need it because we are starting to get the depth and talent to make a difference on the field. We haven't had that in a long time

Tennessee commit Chidi Okonya’s high school coach envisions a time when one of the best defensive ends in the country is a CEO or political leader.

Okonya, a 4-star prospect from Riverdale (Ga.) High School, has professional football dreams, but his coach talks of bigger goals for his star player.

“If the NFL happens, it’s like gravy,” Riverdale coach Terry Herrod told SEC Country. “For him, he is using football to get as much education as possible. He wants to be a major player in the world of business or in the world of politics. That’s where I see Chidi Okonya (Chee-dee O-cone-yay). I see this kid getting these degrees, maybe playing a couple of years in the NFL and going back to law school. I think he has a chance to be Senator or Governor Okonya.”

The 6-foot-7, 230-pounder has never received anything less than an “A” on any report card.

Good stuff.

If he wants to make it in politics:

Sleep with as many women as possible and Don't forget the Cigar.

Lie like crazy.

Smoke some pot but be sure not to inhale.

He just might be president some day.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Won't make it in politics since he turned down the Auburn duffel bag imo

 

[A-RodWiLks]

In all seriousness..can't wait for him to be a Vol...need more like him

Gitshirt season has arrived!

I see some more gitshirts in the WR ranks.

People just have to realize that we have been talking about taking 5-6 more highly rated guys and we only have space for like one guy in this class before the defections. Probably like 3ish more gitshirts still on the way.
