Chijioke.

CHEE-JOE-KAY O-YENA-GECHA

[soonerlaw]

Good for him.

[SoonerStormchaser]

Good for him...still, it is my personal opinion that he was the most overhyped juco recruit we've ever had!

[StoopTroup]

He had one of the best ever names. The announcers always had to do their homework when he was at OU.


"I signed him because of Brad Fotty, to see if he could fit his name on the back,"

[soonerlaw]

When he was good, he was really good, but when he was bad, he really sucked. The guy had speed, but sometimes it seemed that his awareness was off.

[Tear Down This Wall]

I always thought the guy was overblown...except for one play...

...the fourth down sack of Uncle Rico during the fourth quarter of the 2004 OU-Texas game...I mean the OU shutout of Texas in 2004.

Did I mention that OU shutout Texas in 2004 even when Uncle Rico was the 'Horns QB? And, that spare JUCO cornerback Chijioke Onyenegecha sacked Uncle Rico to keep the shutout intact.

Yeah. Chijioke "Shutout" Onyenegecha.

Chijoke is the one of the coolest and most down to earth players on the team. If he wasn't so gigantic, you'd mistake him for a regular college kid. Always enjoyed having him come over to my house.

[DarrellZero]

Are you sure it was the same Chijoke Onyenagetcha?

[Jimminy Crimson]

The Bombers also signed import receiver Kerry Johnson yesterday. It's pronounced exactly as it sounds.

heh

[goingoneight]

heh

KURRRRRRRREEE Johnson. :D

[stoopified]

When he was good, he was really good, but when he was bad, he really sucked. The guy had speed, but sometimes it seemed that his awareness was off.True but ALL our d-backs had that problem with Pellini.

[Tear Down This Wall]

Yeah, which is why we were 12-1 with Pellini and in the national title game.

[John Kochtoston]

When we played man-to-man, dude was a stud. Zone, not so much.

[Suerreal]

I'm glad for him that he found a place to play. He has a lot of potential and some greats skills, but consistency was not one of them. And speed can hurt you when it takes you in the wrong direction.

[CrimsonFaithful]

Good for him, I always thought he was a really good player.

[Sooner Among The Pack]

I had a class with Chijioke and did a group project with him the summer before he took his first snap at OU. He's a great guy...I remember trying to describe the Cotton Bowl on game day to him. I'm glad he landed somewhere playing football professionally.

I distinctly remember when heturned one of Zach Taylor's passes to the house in Lincoln in '05.

[TheUnnamedSooner]

it's pronounced exactly as it sounds.

Isn't everything pronounced exactly as it sounds? :confused:
