Fellow Washington State defender Will Derting described Acholonu as such in 2020:
"D.D. (Acholonu) was such a physical specimen, he had god-given talent of athleticism and strength but also quiet. He could just do stuff so easy. Ike (Brown) was the same way as D.D. and Ike was a lot more boisterous in getting guys fired up. You put those guys on either side of you, coming off the edges and that's pretty deadly cause you can't roll either way as a quarterback."[2]
