Ethan West brings pedigree and physicality to Colgate’s front seven
West profiles as a rugged, high-upside defensive presence whose best calling card is his disruptive pedigree: he was a four-star linebacker recruit and, in high school, stacked up 343 tackles, 6 interceptions, and 11 forced fumbles while also earning three straight all-region honors. That background points to instinct, physicality, and playmaking rather than just raw stat production, which makes him intriguing for teams looking for a tough, versatile defender who can close space and create turnovers. The main question is health and role consistency, since his college path has included injury and status changes.
