2017 Linfield Fall Camp Interview: Linfield Defensive Coordinator Jackson Vaughan

The 2017 season is just days away from kicking off for our Linfield Wildcats. With that in mind, I reached out to Linfield long time defensive coordinator Jackson Vaughan. Coach Vaughan is an incredible football coach as he enters into his 12th year as the Wildcats defensive coordinator (22nd year overall and still in his early 40's).

I wanted to get Coach Vaughan's views on the 2017 Linfield Defense. I believe the group could develop into a sledgehammer. Linfield has an explosive defensive front seven but will have a number of new faces in the defensive backfield.

Coach Vaughan takes you through all three levels on the defense in a preview of the season. Hit play and get the scoop on the 'Cats.

Why "ADvantage Catdome"

I’ve had a number of people ask me why the blog is called ADvantage Catdome. So instead of repeating the explanation over and over, I thought I would just lay it out here.

Back in 1986 my father took me to my very first Linfield game, the final regular season game vs. Pacific (Linfield would roll the Boxers on their way to their 3rd NAIA title). I was 10 years old at the time and I can remember seeing these banners the pep squad/students have hung up on the fences around the Catdome. They read “We have the ADvantage”.

I pulled on my dad’s shirt and asked him what that meant. He pointed to the coaches box in the far back of Memorial stadium and said “You see that man there? That’s Coach Rustchman. He’s Linfield’s advantage.”

It wasn't until later that my dad told me Coach Rustchman’s first name was “Ad”. Get it now? Good. Go ‘Cats!
