College Football News on JOK:

On a team full of strong defensive parts, the 6-1, 216-pound Owusu-Koramoah is the one who does it all, leading the team with 80 tackles with 5.5 sacks and 13.5 tackles for loss with four broken up passes.

Owusu-Koramoah seemingly came out of nowhere last year to make a huge impact on the defense.  Brian Kelly has gone on the record to say that he’s lining up better than before and that’s a huge reason for his success.

Growth on the mental side of the game in terms of preparation and awareness will only help his body that appears ready for the NFL Draft next spring, despite him having a year of eligibility remaining after 2020.

Finally – why no Kyle Hamilton?
