Cruz Mobley brings size, upside, and special-teams energy to Youngstown State’s linebacker room
Cruz Mobley is a 6-foot-3, 240-pound linebacker at Youngstown State with a sturdy frame that fits the physical, downhill style the Penguins want on defense. The reliable context: roster listings in 2024 and 2025 identify him as a linebacker, and ESPN listed him as a freshman with no game-log stats available, so his impact has been more about development and role fit than box-score production so far. What stands out most is his high-ceiling build and reported production before college, including 126 tackles, 8 sacks, and 14 tackles for loss in the 2023 season, which hints at real playmaking juice if the technique catches up.
