2018 projections: Don’t expect much from him this year. I see a redshirt season since he arrived late and there’s also a lot of experience for the Syracuse Orange on the line right now.

How’d he get here?: He committed to Syracuse back in 2017 before his senior season. He chose the Orange over Boston College, Georgia, Miami (Fla.), and Rutgers. He didn’t arrive on campus until early August after he finally finished his summer class.

What movie would Dino recommend?: The 2004 comedy (?), White Chicks stars the Wayans brothers, Terry Crews, and many others. It’s funny if you have the sense of humor of a 13-year old, but other than that, don’t watch it.
