Academic Star DL with Untapped JUCO Pedigree
Redshirt senior Tannen Vagle (6-2, 230) hasn't cracked UCLA's game-day roster in 2023 or 2024 despite joining fall camp, but his JUCO dominance at Santa Monica College—21 tackles, 9.5 TFLs, 4.5 sacks, 2 FF as a captain and All-American—hints at explosive pass-rush potential waiting to burst[2]. A 4-time Athletic Director's Honor Roll honoree with medical career ambitions, he's the high-motor, team-first grinder who thrives off the bench; perfect fit for teams needing depth, leadership, and a developmental gem with proven intensity[2].
