Oklahoma National Signing Day Player Profile: Ace Hodges

Hometown: Oklahoma City, OK

Height: 6-2

Weight: 280

Position: DL

School: Casady School

Evaluation: A strong interior defensive lineman with a low center of gravity, Ace Hodges comes to Oklahoma as a walk-on from nearby Casady. Hodges wrestling background is evident when watching his film, as the Cyclones' standout plays with great leverage and pad level. Playing on the offensive and defensive line in high school, Hodges will be a solid addition to Todd Bates' position group and should be a good practice player who can help make his teammates better each day in drills. Hodges uses his hands well and has a strong punch on initial contact at the line of scrimmage.
