Ethan Dallen brings size and early-frame promise to UNI’s defensive front
Dallen is a young, high-upside **defensive lineman** whose calling card is his prototypical frame and early production as a high school pass rusher; UNI signed him out of Sioux City North after he finished his senior season as the 5A regular-season sack leader with five sacks and earned first-team all-district and academic all-state honors. He did not see game action in 2024, so the best fit is a program willing to develop a raw, athletic interior/edge defender with room to add strength, polish his hands, and turn that motor into consistent college disruption.[9][11]
