Scouting Verdict

A proven FCS starting punter (43+ gross, 24 inside-the-20 in 2024 at Eastern Kentucky) taking over the job; a solid college specialist without special-teams draft buzz.

Ceiling · 4.6

Projected 2026 starter (P1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.4) · up-year team · ACC draft-temper · specialist (low draft value).

Floor · 3.9

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.3.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.

Path: Eastern Kentucky → Louisville
