2023 Countdown to IUFB Kickoff: 58 Days (Aden Cannon)

Written by: Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)

The 2023 edition of the Hoosier Huddle Countdown is officially underway! We are counting down from 100 to the beginning of the 2023 Indiana University football season. Each day, we will look at one (or two) players on the current Indiana football roster and highlight the player’s role in the upcoming season. Today we look at defensive lineman Aden Cannon.

Name: Aden Cannon

Hometown: Noblesville, Indiana (Guerin Catholic)

Position: Defensive Line

Year: Redshirt Freshman

Height/Weight: 6’6”/253 pounds

Cannon joined the Hoosier program as a walk-on prior to the 2022 season. He did not appear in any game action and took a redshirt season.

During his senior season at Guerin Catholic Cannon played in 11 games on defense. He made 45 total tackles including five tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks. Cannon also played basketball at Guerin Catholic. He played in 37 career games and averaged 3.4 points per game.

Cannon is unlikely to see the game field this season but could be a valued member of the scout team. His athleticism along the defensive line should give good looks to the rotation players during practice.

The Hoosier Huddle Countdown to Kickoff rolls on with Day 57 tomorrow!
