		Summary: Miller was a four-star prospect out of high school who was a top-10 rated player in the state of Ohio and a finalist for Mr. Football in the state of Ohio as a senior. Miller played quarterback and defensive back at Ontario but worked out as a wide receiver for the Buckeyes. Miller redshirted in ’25 and will still have four years to play four. We expect Miller to come in and spend a year developing for another year.						Summary: Like the NFL with a salary cap, or in NIL speak, NIL budgets, there seemsto be two levels of players the UW is going after in the Portal. The player that is intended to be a starter and players, going in, is seen as the backups. In Dieterich’s case, it looks like an opportunity to back up Drew Azzopardi this year. He started at right tackle for SHSU, but doesn’t look developed enough to be ready for games against the likesof Indiana or Oregon. His time as a backup may allow him to develop his feet enough to make transition to starter as a senior.

		Summary: Like the NFL’s salary-cap tiers (or NIL budget tiers), UW appears to be targeting two types of portal additions: immediate starters and developmental depth. In Dieterich’s case, he projects as a backup to Drew Azzopardi this year. He started at right tackle for SHSU, but likely needs more development before he’s ready for Big Ten-level matchups (e.g., Indiana or Oregon). A year in a reserve role could help him improve his footwork and position him to compete for a starting role as a senior.

		2025 Season: Earned first-team All-Big Sky honors. Played in all 12 games on the interior defensive line, starting 11. Ranked fourth among interior defensive linemen in the FCS and tied for first against the run, per PFF. Summary: Based on two 2025 game films (including UC Davis, an FCS playoff team), he does not project as a full-time starter. MaxPreps lists him at 6’1”. He looks best suited for rotational snaps—short-yardage packages where he can plug the middle and provide interior relief.

Video: X:								Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT8D8C5xzE8	Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT8D8C5xzE8
		Summary: Hunter McKee is a 6’4”, 210-pound Eastern Washington freshman kicker from Spokane Valley with uncommon size and a booming leg that scouts view as an immediate special-teams asset. Early production is still raw: through four games in 2025 he’s 0/1 on field goals (missed from 50) and 1/2 on extra points. The appeal is the upside—his frame and power translate to distance and better resistance in protection, plus he brings “finance major” maturity.
