Decision Coming Soon for Okoli?

Chima Okoli has two favorite schools right now and could have a decision soon. One of the fastest rising prospects in recent months, the 6-5, 270-pound Salem (Virginia Beach, VA) standout made what could be his final official visit this past weekend – and it was to one of his two favorites.

Okoli discussed his official visit to Penn State this past weekend.

“It was an honor to meet Joe Paterno,” said the three-star prospect. “It’s a feat in itself for him to be able to coach that long. I talked to Coach Johnson, father of [Kansas City running back] Larry Johnson. He’s the defensive line coach and we watched film on [current Kansas City Chiefs defensive end] Tamba Hali. I met with some academic advisors. Overall, it was a good trip.”

Asked how he got along with the players from Penn State, Okoli answered, “I clicked with the players right off the bat. My host was Terrell Golden, who played at Lake Taylor in Norfolk. He said ‘man, you’re going to love it here,’ which was awesome for a guy from my area to say.”
