Explosive Transfer Edge Rusher Powering UTEP's Struggling D-Line
Junior DE Ashaad Hall, a 6'4", 235-lb transfer from South Carolina State, has flashed elite pass-rush juice in 2025 with 12 tackles, 2 TFLs, 2 sacks, and a PBU across 5 games for the 2-5 Miners—part of a career haul of 59 tackles, 18 TFLs, and 12 sacks in 26 games. His explosive first step stands out on a porous defense, earning a 67 OVR in EA Sports CFB 26 and 2026 NFL Draft buzz with a 4.78 40. High-motor disruptor who's a perfect fit for teams needing immediate edge pressure without the blue-chip hype.
