Zach Vaughan is a blue-collar Houston edge who wins with size, effort, and reliability
In Zach Vaughan’s Houston career, the biggest differentiator was consistency: a 6-5, 265-pound defensive end who gave the Cougars real depth, showed up as a four-year letterwinner, and piled up 22 career tackles with 2.5 tackles for loss while earning major academic honors along the way. In the 2018 season, he was also a Campbell Trophy semifinalist, which says plenty about the kind of disciplined, high-character presence he brought to the locker room. If your team wants a steady, mature, no-drama edge defender with work ethic and intelligence, Vaughan fits the bill.
