Nic Yatsko is emerging as a tackling-first starter in Indiana State’s secondary
Yatsko has become a meaningful piece of Indiana State’s defense, with reliable production in the 2025 season including 46 tackles and an interception, and he’s viewed locally as one of the Sycamores’ integral starters. At 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds, he brings size and physicality to the DB spot, which matters in run support and in matching up with bigger pass catchers. The main reason to care: he looks like a sturdy, dependable defensive back with starter-level trust and room to keep growing rather than a flashy stat-chaser.
