In 2020 as a freshman Verse saw action in 4 games and played a total of 194 snaps for the Great Danes. He recorded 12 tackles, 4 assists, while adding 14 stops. As a pass rusher, he added 17 total pressures, which included 9 QB hurries, 4 QB hits, and 4 sacks on the season.

As a sophomore for the Great Danes in 2021 Verse played in 10 games and took part in 510 snaps for the Great Danes. He recorded 27 tackles, 8 assists, while adding 25 stops. As a pass rusher, he chalked up 36 total pressures, and 16 QB hurries, 13 QB hits, and 7 sacks during the year.

After season's end Verse transferred to Florida State where as a junior for the Seminoles in 2022 Verse played in 11 games and played 360 snaps for the Seminoles. He recorded 21 tackles, 8 assists while making 23 stops. As a pass rusher, he produced 32 total pressures, which included 22 QB hurries, 2 QB hits, and an excellent 8 sacks on the year.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Fast in a straight line. Excellent wide and .bull rushes when he's first off the snap.
  • Showed initial quickness and good flexibility to dip and bend. Verse has active hands and suddenness to his movements, demonstrating the ability to counter inside.
  • Tremendous explosion; accelerates low with power. Relentless blindside pursuit; tracks down ballcarriers across the field.
  • He explodes off the line of scrimmage, playing with a low pad level and violent hands. He converts speed to power effectively enough to put an offensive lineman into the QB’s lap.
  • He combines good length and initial quickness, showing the burst to win early in the down as a pass rusher.
  • With a powerful lower body and the ability to hold up at the point of attack as a run defender, Verse is remarkably instinctive.
  • Verse has the classic frame and long arms with some explosion, power and ability to close.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • He’ll need to add weight in order to play with a better anchor, but he’ll potentially be sacrificing athleticism and speed if Verse does.
  • Verse lacks the speed of a chase and- tackle guy. Verse lacks twitch as a pass rusher and lacks the feet and flexibility to threaten around the edge.
  • He’s going to struggle at the point of attack. As a pass rusher, he lacks the ideal length to ward off blockers and too often allows linemen to get into his chest.
