Southern Miss’s veteran road-grader with a nasty streak
Alex Michael’s Southern Miss profile shows a seasoned offensive lineman who started every game in his senior season and was voted the team’s top offensive lineman three times in 2010, a strong sign of consistency and trust from the staff[1]. At 6-2, 302, he brought interior-line power, durability, and a blue-collar edge, plus the kind of reliability coaches love when they want the pocket kept clean and the run game rolling[1]. The big differentiator here is dependability: he overcame an ankle injury in high school and still developed into a high-level starter, which makes him sound like a plug-and-play fit for a physical front[1][4].
