Rising interior anchor with early all-conference buzz
Willenbring is a 6-foot-4, 305-pound South Dakota State offensive lineman who already earned Missouri Valley Football Conference All-Newcomer recognition and freshman All-American honors after starting all 14 games in 2025, splitting time at center and right guard. He stands out for his size, versatility, and early trust from the staff, plus the kind of physical frame that projects well as he keeps adding strength. For a team, he looks like a dependable interior piece with starter-level competitiveness and room to keep climbing.
