Massive freshman DT with upside, but still an unproven Aggie
In the 2026 season, Tiki Bell arrives at Utah State as a 6-foot-3, 320-pound freshman defensive tackle with a recruiting profile built on size, power, and developmental upside rather than proven college production. He signed with the Aggies after being a three-star recruit, and the main intrigue is his frame and run-stuffing potential in the middle. There’s no available 2026 stat line yet, so the bet here is on projection: if Utah State wants a big-bodied interior presence who can eat space and grow into the job, Bell fits the mold.
