Big-bodied, battle-tested Southern Miss OT with JUCO seasoning
Hastings Carruth brings NFL-style size at 6-foot-6, 300 pounds and real college experience, having started at offensive tackle for Southwest Mississippi CC in 2023 after a redshirt freshman year at Mississippi State. He projects as a plug-and-play depth piece with starter upside because he already has reps against live college fronts, and Southern Miss added him expecting immediate line help. The appeal is simple: frame, experience, and a development runway—exactly the kind of mauler teams like to stash and then suddenly can’t stop bragging about.
