Cornell DL with old-school leverage and dependable trench grit
Matt Pollock is listed as a Cornell defensive lineman, but the available public record is thin on current-season production, so the clearest signal is his role and build rather than splashy stat lines. He’s the kind of interior presence you notice in the way Cornell has trusted him on the roster: compact, sturdy, and built for physicality at 6-foot-1, 250 pounds as a sophomore in 2003-04, later 6-foot-0, 269 pounds as a senior in 2005-06. His differentiator is trench toughness—more workhorse than highlight reel—which can fit a team needing a reliable, low-drama DL body who brings leverage and punch.
