Wessell looks athletic for a big guy.

He impressed the coaches at DT also but Clanton wants him on the o-line.

Yeah, when I started to look at his Hudl just now, I thought, “Did I make a mistake, and he’s an OL?”

But the graphic says DL, so…

It looks like he plays LT and DE for his HS team. Both look pretty good for him as I watch just a little bit of film. Really moves well.

I notice that he tagged Coach Rasheed and Coach Paup in his commit tweet.

Seems like the kind of guy the coaches arm wrestle over.

So…who wins between Clanton, Coach Sheed and Paup?

I think DE is where he most impressed coaches at a recent camp.

I see iowa pivoted to offering another DL just like we did. PJ Fleck and the hourglass strikes again with Benton.

One sarcastic response on X. But, I like his footwork a lot. He pivots his man really well. Count me more excited than most.

I see two things there that encourage me:

• Wrestler so he understands how to use his hands and leverage.
• Shot and discus (State qualifier) so he probably has excellent footwork.
