Cal Poly’s 6-foot-6 freshman tight end brings size, red-zone upside, and multi-offer promise
Finley Torrico enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot-6, 250-pound freshman tight end at Cal Poly, a frame that immediately jumps off the page and gives the Mustangs a legitimate matchup problem in the passing game[1][2]. In his senior season at Aliso Niguel, he posted 234 receiving yards and finished his prep career with 494 receiving yards in 22 varsity games, while also drawing offers from Montana and Northern Arizona[4]. The big differentiator: he looks like a classic “throw it up and let the giant work” tight end, with enough recruiting buzz and classroom polish to suggest he could develop into a reliable every-down piece[3][4].
