Read EvaluationAndy Pham | Prep Redzone Scout
Nickolas is a lineman with good versatility. I personally like him more on the interior, but he is able to play outside. He has a good frame, he shows good quickness off the line and has a good first step, he has the lateral quickness to hold up outside against edge rushers. He shows a good base and plays with good physicality. He has the footwork to be used as a pulling interior lineman. He’s a fun player to watch and has a good upside; he should see D1 offers come his way.

Read EvaluationAndy Pham | Prep Redzone Scout
Fungavaka is an athletic lineman who will continue to grow into his frame and should get north of 300 lbs without limiting his skill set. He is a physical lineman with good footwork and gets to the second level easily. Fungavaka is light on his feet and will pull and be effective in the screen game. As a blocker, he drives his defender back and has good strength. He might move inside at the next level to be protected from quicker edge rushers, as run blocking is where he excels at this time. With further growth and development, we can see him stick as a tackle. The ceiling is there for the 2027 prospect.
