On the field, Ogbonnia is one of UCLA’s most experienced players. “The family unit that we have here, that’s how he shows he loves his guys as a leader,” Gaines said.
He loves making others happy through food. The trouble of picking through half-stocked grocery store shelves to meet a same-day request dissipated once he saw the smiles on his teammates’ faces as they returned for seconds and thirds. He was set on just taking a nap after practice. Last year, when Gaines spent Thanksgiving with his girlfriend, Ogbonnia didn’t want to repeat the feast solo. He orders spices from Indonesia to master cinnamon rolls, writes and rewrites his own recipes in his quest for perfection, then delivers his dishes to teammates, coaches and trainers at UCLA to unite the team through a language 300-pound men speak and understand even more fluently than football: food. What started as youthful curiosity is now a deep passion for Ogbonnia. The senior nose tackle is UCLA’s top chef.
When Ogbonnia is not mauling offensive linemen, he’s here, leaning over the kitchen counter of his studio apartment in a UCLA graduate student housing complex or peering into the half-sized oven to check on his latest culinary creation. He drags it through the red puddles, gently swirling them to create a whimsical pattern. Relative to the UCLA defensive lineman’s massive hands, the spoon Ogbonnia is holding looks like something used to feed babies.
