HIGH SCHOOL: Olarinde had a standout career at South Cobb High School, where he was a two-time first-team all-region selection and earned honorable mention all-state recognition. In the 2022 season, he recorded 88 total tackles in seven games, with three interceptions, four forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and two defensive touchdowns. He was also named the team's defensive player of the year.
PERSONAL: Jimi is the son of Olu and Iy Olarinde and plans to study architecture at Carson-Newman. He ultimately chose Carson-Newman because of the interest the coaching staff showed in both his athletic and academic success. Olarinde’s brother played college football at Point University.
