A walk-on during the fall 2019 camp, Tamis impressed his coaches at the offensive line position. He earned a scout player of the week against Penn State that season. The past two seasons, Tamis has not seen the field but has been putting in work earning scout team player of the year on the offensive side of the ball.

The offensive line unit is continuing to battle for playing time and you can bet that Tamis will be giving his all to find the field in 2022. He might not start the season, there is no doubt that if called on he will be ready.
