As a member of Charlie Strong’s second full recruiting class, Charles Omenihu endured the lowest of lows and the highest of highs throughout his four-year career at Texas. From the 2016 loss at Kansas to the Sugar Bowl win against No. 5 Georgia, Omenihu went through it all as a Longhorn.
He arrived on campus as a raw, lengthy 230-pound defensive end with a lot to prove, and he did just that over the course of his collegiate career at Texas.
While his closest teammates DeShon Elliott and Malik Jefferson departed after their junior seasons to pursue their professional football dreams, Omenihu set aside the NFL opportunity to return for his senior season in hopes to further improve his draft stock.
