Scouting Verdict

Presumptive QB1 and the headline portal addition — 1,465 yards with a 12-2 TD-INT line at 61.6% in eight starts at Appalachian State, on a 6-7/245 frame that was a blue-chip Iowa State signing. One of two players FIU took to CUSA media days. Real FBS production plus pedigree, but no national draft board lists him.

Ceiling · 6.9

Projected 2026 starter (QB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.7) · Conference USA draft-temper · QB premium.

Floor · 5.4

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.8.
