He was considered a three-star prospect when he signed with Texas State, with the 247Sports composite ranking him as the No. 89 player overall and No. 19 defensive lineman in their JUCO rankings. He has not received a ranking this offseason.He spent the prior two years at Hinds Community College, making 66 tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss, 5.5 sacks, and three pass breakups in 18 total games.
