The 6-foot-2, 305-pound lineman hails from Bradenton (FL) IMG Academy and the Terrapins will have to beat out some powerhouses in order to land the lineman. He is ranked as the 532nd-best player in the 2026 class and the No. 61 DL, per the composite.
Here is 247Sports' scouting report on Brickle:
Only played in three games as a sophomore due to a transfer and injury but was dominant in limited action. Was an impact interior lineman and you can see his natural ability. He's a powerful kid with heavy hands and knocks guys backward. Has quick feet in the box and plays behind the line of scrimmage. Strong at the point of attack and can move well laterally. Can disengage from a blocker and shows the ability to run down plays from behind. He's a true nose guard who can take on double teams and still make plays. The upside is high and Brickle is an early high Power 4 prospect with the talent to play for anyone at the next level.
