Scouting Verdict

Experienced 6-8, 330 left tackle and a projected starter for Texas Tech, a name the staff has publicly counted on returning for 2026. The size is a genuine premium-position frame and the starting experience is real. However, this is a projection built almost entirely on role and measurables — there's no tracked statistical production to lean on for a lineman, the recruiting profile was modest, and the grade rests on the tape being clean rather than any measurable output. A big, seasoned Power-conference tackle whose 2026 pass-protection tape is the entire case; a quality college starter and fringe pro whose grade moves on how the film grades, not the frame.
