Scouting Verdict

Australian punter with a strong G5 season (45.4 avg, 64 long at New Mexico) projected as FSU's starter. Solid leg; specialists rarely draft but a productive starting punter.

Ceiling · 4.5

Projected 2026 starter (P1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.3) · ACC draft-temper · specialist (low draft value).

Floor · 3.7

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.5.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.

Path: City College of San Francisco → New Mexico → Florida State
