Cornelious Bass is a disruptive, still-rising edge defender for Bethune-Cookman
Cornelious Bass, a 6-foot-2, 230-pound sophomore DE from Orlando, gives Bethune-Cookman a compact, active edge presence with enough burst to get home—he had 2.5 sacks across his 2024 season and added at least one sack in 2025 action, including a takedown of Alabama State’s Andrew Body. His profile hints at a high-motor, physical defender who fits best as a pressure piece rather than a pure size-based edge bender. The upside? He looks like the kind of young, local talent coaches can build around if they want effort, toughness, and steady pass-rush juice.
