Scouting Verdict

Dual-threat quarterback who followed offensive coordinator Mark Cala over from UTEP, where he threw for 1,418 yards with 13 touchdowns and added 396 rushing yards and 8 scores. The 11 interceptions and a 55.5% completion rate are the reason the grade stays where it does.

Ceiling · 6.0

Projected 2026 starter (QB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.2) · Conference USA draft-temper · QB premium.

Floor · 5.5

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.3.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.

Path: Austin Peay → UTEP → Missouri State
