a high-motor Idaho State linebacker with proven production and leader vibes
In the 2013 season, Idaho State linebacker Jake Pele showed real snap-to-snap impact, appearing in 11 games with 40 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, and a sack, while earlier coach comments praised his athleticism, temperament, and performance. He was described as a defensive leader and playmaker, which matters because that suggests a player whose value goes beyond box-score tackles: he brings intensity, grasp of the scheme, and steady presence. If you want a linebacker who sounds like he’ll hit the meeting room and the hole with equal enthusiasm, Pele fits the bill.
