Andrew is an explosive interior force built for the chaos of the trenches. With a powerful lower base and violent hands, he owns the line of scrimmage with the kind of physicality that wears defenders down snap after snap. He’s fierce in close quarters, explosive off the snap, and smart enough to recognize stunts and blitzes before they happen. What separates Andrew is not just his raw strength or football IQ, it’s how he moves bodies with intent and leads with toughness every down. Whether snapping and stepping into a zone scheme or walling off a bull rusher in pass pro, he plays with unmatched grit, finishing blocks and sending a clear message that you’re not getting past him without a fight.

This past season, Andrew graded out with an A in pass protection and a B+ in the run game, dominant numbers that reflect his value as a dual-phase anchor. His biggest improvement has been in strength and power, becoming a true enforcer at the point of attack. As he heads into the offseason, his focus is all about taking that next step with elite-level physical development and improving his technical craft. Every rep, every lift, every drill is fueled by the goal of proving he belongs among the best in the nation.

He’s locked in on this summer’s camp circuit rather than 7v7, knowing that real trenche work can’t be faked. That’s where he plans to showcase his consistency, footwork, and dominant hand placement to college scouts. He handles adversity like a veteran, staying calm, composed, and battle-tested. And it’s not just physical toughness. Andrew’s vocal leadership, sharp mental preparation, and ability to lead a unit elevate everyone around him.

He plays with intention, inspired by those who’ve believed in his potential since day one. His offensive coordinator’s trust fuels him, and that trust drives his confidence. Andrew believes he’s a D1 talent, and he’s not waiting around for approval; he’s earning it in the dirt and grind of every practice and snap.

I assess that Andrew has the tools to be a program-changing interior lineman. His blend of power, awareness, and leadership will anchor any offensive line from day one. A coach’s dream in the trenches, durable, disciplined, and relentless, making life easier for quarterbacks and devastating for defenders.

Expect Andrew to be one of the most physical, reliable interior linemen in the 2026 class. His consistent trend in strength and leadership makes him a high-value target. With continued growth and exposure at camps, college coaches are going to see exactly what we already know: he’s built to dominate on Saturdays. With relentless and unapologetic determination, Andrew is a man on a mission to dominate. Stay tuned.
