Vaughn Hodges brings an old-school linebacker profile to Columbia
Vaughn Hodges is a 6-foot-1, 226-pound Columbia linebacker whose listed production includes 37 tackles, 3 sacks, and 3 interceptions, showing a disruptive, multi-phase defensive impact rather than just run support[1][3]. His value is in versatility and playmaking: he paired tackling with pressure and ball skills, which is exactly the kind of linebacker profile that can fit a defense looking for an active, instinctive second-level defender[1]. The main caveat is that the available roster information is older, so current form and recent injury status are not clear from the sources provided[1][3].
