Richie Hagarty brings veteran grit and disruptive upside to Northwestern’s front seven
Richie Hagarty is a seasoned Northwestern defensive lineman with proven rotational value, posting 14 tackles, 1.0 tackles for loss, 0.5 sacks, and 2 quarterback hurries in the 2025 season before a season-ending injury cut his year short. At 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, he has the frame to hold up inside or on the edge, and the big differentiator is his experience: he’s battled back from injury and still flashes the kind of toughness and effort coaches love in a trench player. If your team wants a reliable, physical depth piece with upside, he fits the mold.
