Powerful Arkansas Guard Who Won With Size, Drive, and Rare Big-Play Flair
Tretola was a high-impact Arkansas left guard who started all 13 games in his standout season, earned an 80% offensive grade in 10 games, and led the team with 75 knockdowns while committing just one penalty[3]. His differentiators were easy to spot: elite size, heavy hands, and the kind of nasty finish that made him a force in the run game, plus the unusual athletic bonus of being able to throw a touchdown pass from the line[5][6]. He fits best as a tone-setting interior lineman with physicality and edge, though his later pro career was interrupted after he was waived by Tennessee following a gunshot wound injury[2][1].
