Scouting Verdict

True freshman 3* LB with no production; developmental reserve.

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+4.6) · Conference USA draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 0.7

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.7.
