Hard-hitting NC State linebacker who flashed as a spring standout
Oliver Hoyte was a physically imposing 6-3, 235-pound linebacker at NC State, recruited as the No. 62 linebacker nationally and praised as one of the hardest-hitting defenders in his class.[9] In his NC State career, he finished with 79 total tackles, 9 tackles for loss, and 1 sack, and the coaching staff even tagged him as a spring-practice defense standout and a big hitter.[3][15] If you want a tone-setter who brings toughness, contact, and dependable downhill play, Hoyte is the kind of guy you care about.
