Brandon Hogan

Brandon Hogan played football at Osbourn High School, where he began to earn respect on the collegiate recruiting scene.

[1] After enrolling at West Virginia University in 2007, Hogan was projected as a defensive back on the team's roster.

However, as fall practice began Hogan made the transition from receiver to cornerback, the position he was projected to play when he arrived at West Virginia as a freshman.

[3] Hogan saw his first career start at cornerback in the 27–3 victory over Marshall, in which he recorded four tackles and recovered a fumble.

In the 35–13 win over Connecticut, Hogan had 3 tackles, a fumble recovery, and two interceptions for a total of 50 return yards.

However, he missed the Meineke Car Care Bowl victory over North Carolina due to a personal illness issue.

On October 29, 2012, the Carolina Panthers cut ties with Brandon Hogan, waiving him off injured reserve.
