Transfer DB with Family Ties and Untapped HS Ballhawk Potential
Redshirt sophomore Elisha West, now at Minnesota after limited action at Michigan State (2 games in 2025) and a redshirt year at Merrimack (2024), brings intriguing upside as a 5-10, 195-lb DB with elite high school pedigree—4 INTs, 3 fumble recoveries, and 9 TFLs as a Quince Orchard senior in 2023, earning all-county honors. Joining brother Aydan at Minnesota adds family intensity and motivation; his quick transfer path (83rd-ranked in 247Sports 2026 portal) signals athleticism and adaptability, making him a depth piece with starter potential for teams needing agile, instinctive corners.
