Gabe Kaminski brings proven run-stopping production and a wrestler’s edge to Stanford’s linebacker room
Kaminski arrived at Stanford as a top-55 outside linebacker recruit with a strong résumé: 369 career tackles, 125 tackles for loss, 59 sacks, and three straight Illinois 5A state titles at Nazareth Academy, plus a 63-6 wrestling record that suggests leverage, balance, and physical toughness.[4] In 2025 at Stanford, he was a true freshman who posted 4 tackles in limited action, so the upside is more projection than production right now.[1][3] His differentiators are high-end contact balance, relentless motor, and proven production against high school competition, making him a fit for teams that value instinctive, physical linebackers who can develop into impact defenders.[4][5]
