Scouting Verdict
R-Sophomore nose, Penn State transfer rated 4-star OVR53 — a premium portal grade. Two years of B1G depth tape (16 tackles, 0.5 sack, FF in 2025 over 12 games) as a rotational interior defender. Projected NT1; the strong portal grade and SEC-level frame push him to the top of the priority-UDFA-adjacent band, though production is still rotational.
