Villanova freshman OL Chris Therien brings pro-style size and early drive-blocking upside
Chris Therien is a **6-foot-5, 280-pound freshman offensive lineman** at Villanova, and the early buzz around him centers on his power-based run blocking: reliable hand placement, strong leverage, good balance, and the kind of short, choppy footwork that helps him wash defenders off the line. A recruiting note from Prep Redzone praised his drive-blocking angles and base, while Villanova lists him as an active freshman with no college stats yet, so he’s more projection than production right now. If you want a high-upside mauler with size, he fits; if you need an instant, proven starter, the resume is still waiting to catch up.[2][6][14]
