He deserves all the congratulations he can endure. He helps his team and he helps himself in his own life. How many years did he add to his existence by making these changes now when it’s easier, rather than doing damage control later in life when it’s harder to change the habits?

I used to see AO around campus in the dining halls, especially the fast-food dining center eating garbage constantly, but in the spring I had noticed I never saw him anymore. Later I think it was the Daily Orange on campus ran a story about how he changed all his dieting habits to salads and cooked chicken, and generally extremely healthy things while hitting the weight room. When I see him around now, especially in the fall when it was warm, you could see how absolutely ripped he is. It’s amazing to see how good of shape he’s in.

Jameson — I’m not the author of the fine summary above, but allow me to chime in.

Onuaku’s huge. And he’s played well for them. He’s a legitimate inside presence on what I feel is an underrated team. I can’t believe he made such a change in one off-season.

You allude to Onuaku’s beefing up with muscle not fat, but I’ll throw a number at you to give you even more perspective on what kind of shape he’s in. AO put on 20-25 pounds in the off season and his body mass index went down by almost two percent.
