Joshua Madison brings two-way toughness and reliable safety instincts to Coastal Carolina
Madison stands out as a physical, assignment-sound safety whose value is more about steadiness and range than splashy measurables; ESPN’s recruiting combine listed him at 6-0, 196 with a 5.15 forty and a 55.74 SPARQ, suggesting a player who wins with football IQ, angles, and willingness to finish plays rather than pure burst.[1] Coastal Carolina’s roster page identifies him as a safety, but public team-level stats and recent game production details are limited, so the cleanest read is that he profiles as a depth-to-role defender whose fit depends on tackling consistency, communication, and special-teams impact.[2]
