Scouting Verdict

Redshirt-sophomore edge transferring up from Buffalo (MAC) with modest rotational production — 12 tackles, 2.5 TFL, 1.5 sacks on 166 snaps in 2025 after a near-redshirt 2024. Long, projectable frame (6-6) and a real Power-4 portal suitor (Ole Miss) give upside, but he profiles as developmental depth/rotation at BC with no draft buzz; tempered for youth and limited proven sample.

Ceiling · 4.4

2026 rotation (LDE2) — some opportunity; close to ceiling (+0.9) · ACC draft-temper.

Floor · 2.4

Some college production — moderate floor; downside −1.1.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.
