Today, we continue our series on Draft-eligible Washington Huskies with a profile of a good bet to be the first Dawg off the board, defensive tackle Levi Onwuzurike. For more UW draft profiles, check out the pervious entries in this series:
Career So Far
Onwuzurike was one of the early returns in UW’s push to recruit in Texas and he proved a solid return on investment. Onwuzurike played at powerhouse Allen HS in suburban Dallas. He was a solid prospect, but not spectacular with a 3* rating and a national ranking in the low-200s. A large part of the reason Onwuzurike was not rated higher was his size- at 260 pounds as a senior, he profiled more as a defensive end at the next level than an interior lineman.
