Texas buddy told me that he started for them so he was surprised that he was leaving.

Being blunt here but they felt like they had some younger better talent that would play more than him at that spot this coming year.

He finished with 3.5 official sacks per NCAA, in the last 2 years at Texas playing almost 1,300 snaps, 539 of them on a pass rush. PFF actually has him with 7 sacks, but they count half sacks as full sacks too. PFF credited him with 50 total QB pressures (sacks, hits, hurries) in those 539 pass rush snaps. That's a pressure rate of about 9.3%.

Just to compare to Ojulari's career here. Ojulari had 127 total QB pressures in 907 pass rush snaps. thats a pressure rate of 14%. Doesnt sound like a big difference from 9.3% but 14% is 50% higher than 9.3% which is a pretty big difference. They also gave Ojulari 21 sacks, or 3x as many as Ovie, but he played less than double as many pass rush snaps as Ovie. If you look at Ovi'e sack rate per pass rush snaps compared to Ojulari, Ojulari would have had about 12 sacks in his 907 pass rush snaps using Ovie's sack rate....so obviously Ojulari did much much better there.
