ESN PLAYER EVALUATION/NOTES
2018 5A Honorable Mention All-State Defense. Chidozie is one of the most impressive prospects in the 2020 recruiting class. He is undersized at 6-0 275-pounds but if you let that steer you away from him you are going to regret that decision. Chidozie is one of the toughest, most polished pass rushers in the state, athletic, and is also like a raged pitbull that you just can’t stop. He has the strength and power to collapse the pocket and drive offensive lineman back. He also is well-trained using his hands and quickness to get in the backfield. He can stack and shed with the best in the state and has the change of direction speed and quickness to chase down QB’s and RB’s. He is violent player that gets excellent leverage. He won the State 5A Wrestling Championship as a sophomore and lost in the finals as a junior in a controversial decision. He will be the favorite in his senior year. He is unerrated based on the offers, performance on the field, and future potential. Power 5
