H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 07/20/2020
Projection
Power-5 StarterA large, wide-hipped body that’s well over 350 pounds. Surprisingly light on his feet given build and composition. Often times one of the first to pounce off the snap and initiate contact. Quick hands and swim move allow him to get past blockers and make plays in the backfield. Eats blocks and is effective at times against double teams. Will however need to drop some bad weight and lean out in college which should happen once he's working with a strength coach. Also needs to improve overall pad level. Has the looks of the ideal nose tackle for 3-4 defense that should be able to develop into a multi-year contributor for a Power 5 program.
