Hyson Bey-Buie brings size, experience, and sneaky upside to UNI’s defensive front
In the 2024 season, Hyson Bey-Buie appeared in four games for UNI and logged 11 total tackles, and he enters 2026 as a 6-foot-4, 275-pound senior defensive lineman with Moline, Illinois toughness and multi-sport pedigree. His differentiators are length, physicality, and a blue-collar background that suggests he can keep climbing with more snaps; UNI’s roster notes also point to strong high-school production and all-state recognition. If a team wants a developmental interior DL with size, room to grow, and a no-nonsense profile, he’s a solid fit.
