3 underrated 2025 DLs Texas could offer this summer

Carmine Orozco, Mishawaka (IN)

Three-star defensive lineman from Indiana, Carmine Orozco is one of the more underrated and quick prospects at his position in the 2025 class. Orozco is extremely quick off the line of scrimmage to zone in on the ball carrier and bring them to the ground.

At 6-foot-4 and around 275-pounds, Orozco is more natural to play three-tech defensive tackle or as a true defensive end with some size. At three-tech, Orozco has the quick feet, long wingspan, and closing speed required to quickly get off blocks and collapse the pocket from the outside or put pressure on opposing quarterbacks by rushing from the inside of the defensive line.

Orozco also plays with good pad level and physicality when he's around the football. His motor and physicality are impressive along with his ability to find the ball carrier and chase them down from the defensive line.

Orozco has received some interest from Power Four schools since the beginning of this offseason. The school he's been the most interested in this summer is the Oklahoma State Cowboys, which offered Orozco in ealry March during the spring evaluation period.

He's also received Power Four offers from the likes of the Boston College Eagles, Louisville Cardinals, Cincinnati Bearcats, and Indiana Hoosiers.
