Scouting Notes

JMU's most legitimate pro prospect and the one current Duke with documented national draft attention (Yahoo summer scouting report, multiple draft-profile listings). A 980-yard, 6.0-ypc season in 2024 with receiving value shows real lead-back ability, but 2025 production collapsed to 195 yards (role/injury) and the profile is undersized (~5-10, 196) with a G5-competition discount. Scouts peg him as a high-floor, lower-round/priority-UDFA back rather than an early pick.
