Earning much-needed experience in 2023 has Jason Onye ready for a breakout for Notre Dame in 2024
Notre Dame is expected to have one of the nation's top defensive tackle units in all of college football in 2024, but after a spring breakout byLast spring was our first glimpse at a potential breakout from Onye. After toiling in anonymity in his first two years on the Fighting Irish roster, Onye opened eyes last spring and managed to crack the two-deep depth chart last season.
The 6-5, 287-pound rising senior has two remaining seasons of eligibility after tallying 17 total tackles as a reserve behind Mills and Cross last season. His primary position this season is still in a rotation, primarily behind Mills at 3-technique. But that's just fine for Onye. “He is the part,” Washington said of Onye. “He looks the part, he is the part. He's got to continue to work on the details of his technique, his leverage. He's a different body type, man. He is tall, high hipped, I mean, you look at him physically. Inside the game is about leverage. So it's always going to be a little more of an investment for him. But he's improved in that, and just getting comfortable with all the things we asked them to do.
