Scouting Notes
QB1. San Jose State transfer who threw for 3,051 yards and 17 TD in 2025 (2,504 in 2024) and now inherits the keys from record-setter Darian Mensah (transferred to Miami). Capable starter with arm and experience, but the 9-10 INT efficiency and G5 level temper the projection. QB premium gives upside if he elevates in the ACC.
