BYU freshman LB Naki Tuakoi brings four-star upside and power-conference pedigree
Tuakoi enters BYU as a **6'3", 220-pound freshman linebacker** with the kind of recruiting profile that signals real long-term upside, including interest from **Oregon and Notre Dame** and a near-four-star evaluation in the 2024 class. He stands out for his size, athletic ceiling, and the fact that BYU signed him as an impact defender, not a developmental flyer. For a team, he’s intriguing if you want a young LB with high-end traits and room to grow, though his current value is more projection than proven production because he has not yet built a college stat resume.
