2024 four-star DE Obinna Onwuka releases top 7 schools list

USC is the only school west of Memphis on this edge rusher’s list of finalists.

Class of 2024 defensive end Obinna Onwuka of Charles Herbert Flowers High School in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, released his top seven schools. That list included the USC Trojans.

Joining USC on that list are Boston College, Maryland, Memphis, Penn State, West Virginia and Virginia Tech.

Onwuka explained why each of the seven schools made his top list.

“Boston College is a prestigious place and I have family ties there. Maryland will always be my hometown, so why not the crib? Memphis has great coaches and awesome fans. USC, Virginia Tech, and Penn State all have great programs. And at WVU, they start their freshmen and give them a lot of in-game reps in their first year. That’s what really stood out to me.”

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound Onwuka was recently rated a three-star prospect, the No. 41 edge recruit in the 2024 class in the 247Sports rankings.

He is a four-star prospect in the 247Sports Composite, the No. 359 overall prospect and the No. 30 edge rusher.
