Brody Hahn enters his second as a defensive assistant football coach season at Denison University in 2024, where he works mainly with the nickel linebackers.
In 2023, the Big Red won their final four games to finish the season 7-3 overall and tie for second place in the North Coast Athletic Conference standings (6-2) for the second year in a row. Hahn helped coach senior linebacker Jack Nimesheim (Sam position - OLB/Nickel) to his first-career All-NCAC recognition (third-team) after he finished second on the Big Red with 70 tackles and was one of three players with two interceptions on the season. On the defensive side of the ball, Denison had the No. 2-rated overall defense in the NCAC (44th nationally), the top passing defense in the NCAC (181.8 yards per game), the second-best rushing defense in the NCAC, and the No. 2-ranked third-down conversion percentage defense in the NCAC (20th nationally).
Coach Hahn played his senior season at Ohio Northern University (Ada, Ohio) and graduated in 2021, and he currently plays professionally in France with the Saint Ouen l’Aumône Cougars.
Hahn transferred to Ohio Northern after starting at quarterback for three seasons at Muskingum University (New Concord, Ohio), where he re-wrote the MU record books, breaking or tying no less than seven single game, single-season and career records. He was a two-time Academic All-OAC honoree and owns MU career records for total offense with 6,376 yards, passing attempts with 792 and passing touchdowns with 30. As a freshman at MU, Hahn was named the Co-Offensive MVP and set a new school record by completing 177-of-326 passes for 2,026 yards and totaling 2,396 yards of total offense in 10 games. He also tied the school record with 14 passing touchdowns as a rookie and set a new school record for single-game total offense with 427 yards (364 passing/63 rushing yards) against Otterbein.
