Jocelyn Malaska brings veteran size, steady tackling, and a transfer-tested edge to ACU’s secondary
In the 2026 season, Jocelyn Malaska is a redshirt senior DB at Abilene Christian who has already played in 2026 and logged 5 tackles against Texas Tech, giving the Wildcats an experienced, physical option on the back end[11][13]. He has the frame of a legit defender at 6-foot-1 and 180 pounds, with a résumé that includes stops at Oklahoma and Utah before landing at ACU[3][11]. The useful part? He looks like a plug-and-play, mature piece who fits a defense that values toughness, communication, and consistency more than splashy headlines[7][9].
