Rod Tasco brings size, versatility, and multi-sport athleticism to VMI’s linebacker room
Tasco is a **6-foot-4, 215-pound** linebacker entering his sophomore season at VMI, and the roster notes highlight him as an **edge player who can move inside**, which gives the Keydets flexibility in how they deploy him. [1][6] He’s also a multi-sport athlete who plays basketball and lacrosse, a useful clue that his game is built on coordination, range, and competitive athleticism rather than raw box-score production alone. [6] With limited public stat detail available so far, the main reason to care is his positional versatility and projectable frame—he looks like a good fit for a defense that values length, athletic upside, and cross-training toughness.
