John Amone brings linebacker production and downhill pop to Portland State
Amone is a physical, productive linebacker prospect whose high school résumé shows real tackling juice: in his senior season at East High, he posted 49 tackles, 2 sacks and a fumble recovery, and as a junior he totaled 91 tackles, which suggests both range and consistency. Portland State lists him as a linebacker, and recruiting profiles frame him as a bounce-back player with a versatile defensive background, so the appeal is a steady, aggressive defender who can fit a fast, attacking front rather than just chase box-score stats.[2][3][5][7]
