Scouting Verdict
Former 5-star (No.1 OT, 2022) with rare LT size and athletic tools, but as an R-Sr he has badly underproduced — ~20 games mostly on special teams over four years, no starts, and just 2 garbage-time games at Syracuse — and current rankings peg him ~#66 IOL with no real mock-draft buzz. Boom-or-bust upside and 2 years left keep him at high-Fringe rather than draftable.
Ceiling · 6.0
2026 rotation (RG2) — some opportunity; close to ceiling (+0.3) · up-year team · ACC draft-temper.
Floor · 5.2
Some college production — moderate floor; downside −0.5.
