Scouting Journal – LSU Camp (6/21/22)
“Cole Dellinger worked at center and looks to be a good fit at the position long-term. The On3 three-star prospect checked in at around 6-foot-3, 295 pounds and was at his best when he was able to establish a base and play with leverage.” – On3’s Sam Spiegelman
Scouting Journal – LSU Elite Camp (6/17/21)
“The interior offensive lineman from the Midwest brought some heat to the Bayou. Taking snaps at center, Dellinger was terrific once he locked in and powered through defenders. He dominated reps during 1-on-1s and exploded through blocks.” – On3’s Sam Spiegelman
NIL Valuation
Dellinger currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $8.8k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes.
