The highlight tape shows a fast lineman. He looks quite angular for a 285 pound guy. Youth has all the luck. lol.

I noticed that he gets off blocks pretty well by hand fighting through the block. Even when tied up he looks to be able to get a hand free to be able to grab runner on back side of block. Work on level changes at the line.

If we can help him thicken up in the weight room GREAT. With years to improve this is a blessing for Mustangs and Pono.

Video looks like he has decent quickness/mobility.
Welcome - can't have enough athletic defensive linemen.

That's interesting. Hudspeth has shown an ability to find talent that can play at an upper Sun Belt level, which would mean he could contribute in the AAC.

On the other hand

Louisiana-Lafayette just lost half their team due to a massive break in sooooooo they might just be desperate.

I think he will will be a good addition. He seems to have both size and quickness.
