Towering 6-6 Senior RT Powering SDSU's Undefeated Jackrabbits Line
Sam Hagen, a 6-6, 320-pound senior right tackle, has been a rock for South Dakota State's 7-0 Jackrabbits in 2025, starting 12 of 13 games after transferring from UND where he started every game at guard in 2023, fueling top-tier QB protection (70.3% completion rate, No. 3 nationally).[1][2] His mauler intensity and academic excellence (MVFC Honor Roll) make him a durable, coachable differentiator—no injury flags, multi-sport grit from ND high school titles. Care because he's NFL-projected trench warrior; perfect fit for run-heavy schemes needing versatile, reliable size.[2][3]
