Southern Illinois guard Cody Pollock brought size, toughness, and academic grit to the Salukis
In the 2014 season, Cody Pollock was a 6-foot-3, 298-pound offensive lineman for Southern Illinois who helped a unit that ranked second in the Missouri Valley Football Conference in fewest sacks allowed[1]. His profile points to a physical, coach-friendly interior blocker with starting-caliber size, a strong high-school résumé, and standout academic consistency as a three-time Academic All-State pick[1]. If you need a big-bodied guard who plays with discipline and can hold up in the trenches, he fits the mold; if you're looking for flashy highlight-reel stats, the offensive line won’t give you that kind of funhouse mirror[1].
