announced his commitment to SMU on Monday.
Onyeagoro had 95 tackles, 30 for a loss with 21 sacks, two interceptions, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and a blocked punt last season.
I like him as an outside backer at the college level who can rush the passer and drop into coverage. He hasn’t played football very long, but is a tremendous athlete with good pass rushing instincts.
He had 18 other offers and also took a visit to Northwestern. Onyeagoro is one of four players from California in SMU’s recruiting class.

Onyeagoro had a nice showing at the Under Armour Next All-American Camp and won a good amount of one-on-one reps against some top offensive linemen.
He is fast and does a good job using his strength for power moves once the linemen engages with him.
Arizona State offered him last week.

Onyeagoro represented the LA City Section well and was one of the top defensive linemen on Sunday.
He has good speed off the edge and has the strength to drive guys back with power moves. He’s a really good athlete that could be one of the best defensive players in the City Section next season.
