Auburn’s instinctive, old-school middle linebacker with a nose for the ball
In the 2010–2013 seasons at Auburn, Jake Holland was a rugged, high-motor inside linebacker who flashed real playmaking juice, including 12 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, a sack, and a fumble recovery in 2010, plus 351 career high school tackles before arriving on the Plains. He stood out less for flash and more for toughness, reliability, and downhill instinct — the kind of linebacker who fits best in a physical, assignment-sound defense. If you want a tone-setter with proven production and a blue-collar edge, Holland checks the right boxes.
