Stocklinski definetly fills a need at DT. He's much bigger than several of the DTs in the depth right now and he has significant playing experience.

IMHO Stock is a big up grade compared to Crawford who's entering the TP .

Hawaii adds defensive lineman from Richmond
By Stephen Tsai

Adding to the interior design of the defensive line, the University of Hawaii football team received a commitment from a 6-foot-3, 300-pound transfer from the University of Richmond.

Carsen Stocklinski, who has played in all 38 games (starting 34) for the Spiders the past three seasons, said he accepted the Rainbow Warriors’ scholarship offer. He reports in late May after completing work on a bachelor’s degree, and will have one season of eligibility.

Stocklinski made his decison after last week’s recruiting visit.

“The whole visit was awesome,” said Stocklinski, who toured the North Shore, sat in on meetings and met former UH standouts Isa‘ako “Isaac” Sopoaga, and Michael Lafaele. “Everyone was nice. Everyone was cool. It was a good vibe in general. I haven’t stopped thinking about it since I got home.”

Of entering the transfer portal, Stocklinski said, “I wanted to go to the FBS.” Richmond, which competes as an FCS school, has won the Coastal Athletic Association’s title two of the past three seasons.

“I wanted to go somewhere good,” Stocklinski added. “I want to make an impact somewhere and win some games. And get another ring. I want my third ring really bad. I won two rings at Richmond. It’s time to win one at Hawaii.”

The Warriors use two interior linemen in the four-man front of their base defense. Ezra Evaimalo, Daniel “Sauce” Williams and Anthony Sagapolutele completed their UH eligibility at the end of the 2024 season. Dion Washington transferred to Boise State. Malachi Finau also entered the portal.

This offseason, the Warriors added Minnesota transfer Luther McCoy; De’Jon Benton, a former USC defensive lineman who was on New Mexico’s 2024 roster, and Qwyn Williams, who played at Division II Ohio Dominican. Jamar Sekona, who is recovering from a leg injury, is expected to be cleared to play this summer. Stocklinski is a versatile D-lineman who can play the 3-technique (between the offensive guard and tackle) and 2I (between guard and center).

Stocklinski can bench press 405 pounds, power clean 350 pounds, and disrupt blockers with a grip-and-rip move.

Stocklinski’s family home is on an 80-acre farm in Oconee County in Northeast Georgia. He said he enjoys spending his free time with friends, bass fishing and hunting white-tailed deer. “I love hunting quarterbacks and running backs,” he mused.

It's good to add depth. Stock is very lumbering and I'm worried that will limit his effectiveness. The other thing is he won't join until Summer, so he's missing training, 1x1 and installs.

UH needs a disruptor like Finau and Sauce. There is a few scholies left and they'll be able to add more DTs.
Be humble and confident in yourself and all things you do. :zook:

FYI that UH is still waiting to see if JC DL commit Lance Carson will academically qualify to transfer to UH by this Summer.

While 1 more DT transfer might still possibly be added (even if Lance Carson academically qualifies for UH), the few available scholies have been assigned (based on evaluations of completed Spring Ball) to pursue other higher priority positions [2 portal OTs - LT & RT; at least 1 portal punter; 1 outside WR transfer; at least 2 more transfer CBs (since the 2 JC CB signees have yet to academically qualify to transfer to UH, and new JC transfer CB TJ Jones has not yet been medically cleared which resulted in him having to sit out all of Spring Ball so might not be available in the Fall].
