Scouting Verdict

True Fr DL, 3-star (pos-rank 100), no tape; developmental with a bit of pedigree.

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+3.8) · Big 12 draft-temper.

Floor · 1.2

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −2.0.
