Welcome to Aggieland, <a href="https://twitter.com/malick_S17?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@malick_S17</a> u203cufe0f<br><br>ud83euddc3 | <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/GigEm?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#GigEm</a> <a href="https://t.co/E451FcaY4z">pic.twitter.com/E451FcaY4z</a>

Sylla is a 4-star prospect who rates as the No. 66 overall player in the 2022 group, according to 247Sports' composite rankings. He's also listed as the No. 10 defensive lineman and 12th-best recruit from football-rich Texas.

The Katy High School standout's frame (6'6", 230 pounds) makes him look more like a player prepping for the NFL draft than one getting ready to start playing college football.
