High Noon Highlights (10/31): Malcom Rodriguez fits in at linebacker

It’s high noon...

Malcom Rodriguez has found his perfect fit:

“It was a good play call by coach (Jim) Knowles,” Rodriguez said, referring to OSU’s defensive coordinator. “We acted like we were blitzing, a fake bluff blitz. We dropped out, I just read the quarterback’s eyes and I ended up picking it off and taking it to the house.”

Rodriguez made the play of the game and led all players with 11 tackles. He also had a pass breakup on an Iowa State third-down play that helped earn him Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week honors.

With linebacker Calvin Bundage most likely missing the entire season with a back injury, the OSU coaching staff needed to adjust. Moving Rodriguez from safety to linebacker with about two weeks left in training camp has worked out well for the Cowboys. {Tulsa World}
