Found his profile on the 2023 Memphis Football Roster

Looks like he had a lot of accolades coming out of high school, but missed his first season at Ohio State due to injury where he only played 1 game the following year before transferring to Memphis. He appeared in 5 games at Memphis in 2023 and registered 1 tackle.

Looks like he has yet to reach his potential seeing how he was a four star recruit coming out of high school. Hopefully, he can take off while at Ohio.

He's originally from Cincinnati so he should feel right at home playing in the state of Ohio again.
