About three months after signing his national letter of intent, Doryan Onwuchekwa and the Colorado men’s basketball program have agreed to part ways. Both parties announced on Friday that the class of 2024 prospect will be granted a release from his NLI.
Onwuchekwa, a 6-foot-10 center from Texas’ Faith Family Academy, is considered a four-star prospect on most recruiting websites. The 247Sports Composite ranks him as the No. 18 center and the No. 110 overall prospect in the 2024 class.
Per 247Sports, Onwuchekwa received an offer from CU last June before committing to head coach Tad Boyle’s program in September. He then took fall visits to Georgia Tech, Mississippi State and Xavier before signing his NLI on Nov. 8.
Colorado’s 2024 signing class is now down to three members: four-star in-state combo guard Andrew Crawford, three-star California power forward Sebastian Rancik and three-star shooting guard Felix Kossaras, who hails from the Canadian province of Ontario.
Colorado Basketball and I have mutually agreed to part ways. The University of Colorado Basketball program will grant me a complete release from my National Letter of Intent. Colorado Basketball and I wish each other the best.
