Irish A-to-Z: Kolin Hill
Stanford v Notre DameFreshman Kolin Hill had quite a debut for the Irish, making a major impact against Michigan in the season’s second game as a designated pass rusher. The outside linebacker essentially served as a defensive end, wreaking havoc off the edge against the Wolverines, helping to send away the Michigan rivalry with a 1.5 sack day that included two total tackles for loss.
It was the high point of Hill’s first season in South Bend, who basically served as the poster child for Brian VanGorder’s sub-package heavy defensive scheme. And while he disappeared down the stretch, Hill’s unique ability—getting after the quarterback–should serve him well in 2015 and beyond.
