Scouting Verdict

R-So Austin Peay (FCS) transfer projected LB1 — big FCS year (73 tk, 4 sacks, 3 INT, 1 FF) shows genuine playmaking; competition level and one-year sample temper the projection.

Ceiling · 7.0

Projected 2026 starter (LB1) — real opportunity to climb; significant upside (+2.0) · Big 12 draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 4.2

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.8.
