Walter Nolen didn't take long to make an impression after transferring to Ole Miss. His teammates were immediately impressed after working with him for a few practices in the spring. “The guy is a monster,” Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart said. “I think he’s one of the best players in the whole country. His God-given ability is incredible. I thought he’s had a great offseason and has been somebody that has taken another step in his growth. He’s excited for this season and to put his name on the map.” Ole Miss defensive end Jared Ivey agreed. “I think he’s just brought a level of intensity,” Ivey said. “He’s a really hard worker. So, just having that be there and subconsciously push you to work harder at the same time is huge.” Nolen was the On3 Consensus No. 1 prospect in the nation when he signed with Texas A&M out of high school in 2022. Nolen played in 22 games, making 14 starts over the past two seasons with the Aggies, tallying 66 tackles, 11.0 tackles for loss and five sacks along the way.

Walter Nolen‘s athleticism, ability to rush the passer from the interior or as a big defensive end all while having the size of a nose tackle reminds us of Marcell Dareus. Both were highly disruptive at the high school level. Dareus totaled 20 sacks as a senior at Birmingham (Ala.) Huffman in the 2008 cycle. Nolen racked up 31 tackles for loss and 14 sacks as a senior. Dareus had unique movement skills – he ran a 4.93 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine at 319 pounds. Nolen ran an electronically-timed 4.99 40 prior to his junior season at 302 pounds.
