| Scouting Report | Potential |
| As his game continues to improve, he's going to be the kind of tackler coaches rave about. He's got a mean, nasty disposition that will eventually translate into a very aggressive style of play. Sure, he's big and strong but he's working on his speed and that will really add to his game. His teammates think he will someday be one of the strongest players in the nation. |
