Air Force’s tackling anchor: Jordan Waiwaiole brings proven production and durability at linebacker
Jordan Waiwaiole is a high-floor **run-stopping linebacker** for Air Force whose calling card is consistency: in the 2025 season, he started all 13 games and led the team with **96 tackles**, while ranking 10th in the Mountain West at **7.4 tackles per game**.[1] He also brings proven disruptive flashes, with career totals that include **2.5 sacks**, an interception, and a forced fumble.[2] Beyond the box score, his appeal is reliability and starter-level toughness—he’s the kind of physical, assignment-sound defender that fits Air Force’s defense and should translate well to any system that values production, accountability, and steady pursuit.[1][3]
