Mark Risher brings steady, productive linebacker play for Louisiana
Risher’s profile is built on dependable production and backfield disruption: he finished second on the team with 59 total tackles and third with five tackles-for-loss, and he also posted his first career sack while adding two TFLs against UCF. He looks like the kind of linebacker who wins with effort, instincts, and toughness rather than flash, which makes him a useful fit for teams that value consistency and physical run support. The key question for his next step is whether his steady tackle volume can translate into more impact plays week to week.
