veteran Baylor linebacker, defense’s steady tone-setter
Elliot Coffey is a senior, 6-foot, 235-pound Baylor linebacker from Sugar Land who has been described as a two-year starting middle linebacker and the quarterback of the defense, with 114 tackles in the 2011 season and 8.8 tackles per game, ranking fourth in the Big 12.[2][13] His calling cards are production, instincts, and leadership more than flash—he plays with veteran poise, handles the communication duties in the middle, and brings a reliable, hard-nosed presence that fits a team needing an organizer and tackler rather than a highlight reel.[2][13]
