Freshman trench prospect with captain’s pedigree and zero-sack HS résumé
Drean Wallace arrives at Norfolk State as a 2026 freshman offensive lineman from Oscar Smith High School, where he was a two-time second-team all-region pick, a team captain, and part of a line that powered 5,657 total yards while allowing zero sacks in his senior season[8][13]. At 6-foot-2 and 280 pounds, he brings compact size, discipline, and a blue-collar profile that suggests he’s built for development rather than instant hype[1][4]. The upside is simple: dependable, physical, and coachable—exactly the kind of OL body teams like to mold.
