CHIMA UZOWIHE

Chima Uzowihe enters the 2016 NFL draft, a highly-touted option at DE/OLB, having earned Big South Defensive Player of the Year and securing the division’s all-time sacks leader distinction (25). Uzowihe finishes an impressive NCAA career with 150 tackles (84 solo, 66 assisted), 10 pass breakups, five forced fumbles, four blocked kicks and two fumble recoveries.

Uzowihe’s confidence and conviction is surpassed only by his multi-directional speed, infallible hands and a confounding ability to displace larger opponents. At 6-foot-2, 250 pounds, Uzowihe is a proven defensive leader, ready to tackle next-level play.
Uzowihe, who hails from Lamar High School in Houston, TX, is known for his intelligence on the field but also majored in Biology (3.29 GPA) at Liberty and has positioned himself for a Physician’s Assistant career off the field. Uzowihe is a diverse football player who can perform in 3-4 or 4-3 schemes and is a man of God who will ultimately be a competitive asset to any professional franchise.

Anthony Leonard

Anthony Leonard, former assistant coach at UIP, was named an assistant football coach at Fordham University in September of 2021. He will be in charge of the Rams’ defensive line again in 2023.

Last fall, the Fordham defense led the Patriot League in sacks (2.42/game) and placed second second in tackles for loss (5.8/game). The defensive line had a hand in those rankings, led by Jonathan Coste, who had 9.0 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks, both second best in the team as he earned First Team All-Patriot League honors.

In 2021, Leonard's defensive line helped the Rams rank third in the Patriot League in fumbles recovered, 20th in the NCAA FCS, and rank third in the League in both tackles for loss and sacks per game.

Leonard arrived at Rose Hill after five seasons on the Indiana University of Pennsylvania coaching staff where he led the Crimson Hawks' defensive line group from 2016-2020 before being promoted to linebackers coach in 2021.

During his stay at IUP, the Crimson Hawks compiled a 41-8 (.838) overall record in his four seasons (the 2020 season was canceled). Leonard helped the team to three NCAA Division II playoff appearances, including a national semifinal berth, and a PSAC Championship in 2017.

At IUP, Leonard led and coached two All-Americans, seven All-Super Region One selections, and nine All-PSAC West picks. Rotating up to ten players along the defensive front in any given year, Leonard's group combined for 111 sacks and 195.5 tackles-for-loss over that span.

Leonard arrived at IUP from West Virginia University, where he was the defensive graduate assistant and assistant linebackers coach for the 2014 and 2015 seasons. A former All-Big East linebacker at WVU, Leonard spent two seasons at his alma mater, helping the Mountaineers to Liberty Bowl and Cactus Bowl invitations.

Assisting with the linebackers, he mentored first team All-American Nick Kwiatkoski and honorable mention All-Big 12 selection Jared Barber. Leonard coached Shaq Petteway, who earned Defensive Player of the Game honors at the 2016 Cactus Bowl. He also assisted with the Western Pennsylvania and South Florida recruiting areas.

Leonard went to WVU after coaching the defensive line at West Virginia Wesleyan in 2013. He saw Marcus Spearman earn second team All-Mountain East honors while also serving as the program's assistant director for strength and conditioning.

Leonard got his coaching career off the ground after suiting up for West Virginia. A three-year team captain, he earned All-Big East honors in helping the Mountaineers' defense rank second nationally in 2010. He played in four bowl games at WVU – the 2008 Fiesta Bowl, 2008 Meinicke Car Care Bowl, 2009 Gator Bowl, and 2010 Champs Sports Bowl – and also earned the program's Gridiron Gladiator and Hammer Awards in his final season.

A 2010 graduate of WVU in 2010, Leonard received a degree in athletic coaching education and received a master’s degree in communication from the school in 2015. He spent time in the New England Patriots camp in 2011 after signing as a rookie free agent.

Leonard graduated from McKeesport Area High School in 2006, where he was a first team All-State and All-WPIAL player an helped the Tigers to 2005 WPIAL and PIAA championships.
