Alfred Joseph Ivie IV (born January 22, 1995) is a former American football defensive tackle. He played college football at the University of Florida.

Early life

Ivie attended Pasco High School, where he played football for the Pirates for four years, becoming a starter at defensive tackle as a junior, registering 53 tackles (18 for loss).[1] As a senior, Ivie moved to left defensive end and made 89 tackles (8 for loss). Sometimes he lined up at fullback and tight end as well. He also played basketball at center as a freshman.

College career

Ivie accepted a football scholarship from the University of Florida. He is the third generation in his family to attend the school in Gainesville. As a true freshman, he removed his redshirt status late in the season due to the team's depth issues, playing as a backup in three of the last five games.[2]

As a sophomore, Ivie made 24 tackles (3 for loss) and one sack as a backup. As a junior, he started five games, posting 27 tackles (four for loss) and 3.5 sacks.[3] As a junior, he appeared in four games and had 16 total tackles and one forced fumble.[4] As a senior, he started 10 out of 11 games (a broken thumb kept him out of two games), registering 26 tackles (3.5 for loss), 2.5 sacks and seven quarterback hurries.[5]

Ivie spent most of his college career as a nose tackle on a defensive line rotation that included talented players like Jonathan Bullard and Caleb Brantley.
