| Okoroha has very good range, plays the ball very well, gets in passing lanes and has that Ed Reed type of mentality in which he always plays the ball first. He is definitely a true ballhawk. He can high-point the football and shows good ball skills and then is athletic enough to be dangerous after the interception. He comes up quickly in run support and is an aggressive tackler, but isn’t the biggest hitter you’ll come across. |
| Biography: |
As a senior, Okoroha registered 56 tackles, intercepted four passes, forced two fumbles and recovered a fumble on his way to first-team All-County honors. He also had a 79-yard kick return touchdown. He missed three games.
