Florida’s steady, all-around linebacker with real take-on grit
In the 2011 season, Brandon Hicks was a dependable Florida Gators linebacker who appeared in 53 career games, made 14 starts, and finished with 117 tackles, 10.5 tackles for loss, and nine sacks, showing he could do damage both in space and in the backfield. What makes him stand out is the blend of physicality and special-teams value: he was a 6-2, 228-pound defender who consistently showed up, played hard, and brought a hungry, high-motor presence. If you want a linebacker who fits a tough, assignment-sound defense and won’t disappear on game day, Hicks is exactly that kind of guy.
