Demitris Mincey brings heat-seeking linebacker energy to FIU
The 2026 FIU commit from Dillard is a physical, downhill linebacker who reportedly piled up 96 tackles, 33 tackles for loss, 9 sacks, 8 quarterback hurries, and an interception in his high school season, which screams impact-maker in the front seven. FIU’s staff praised his constant motor and football instincts, noting that he “always” runs to the ball and plays with a nose for contact. At 6-foot-1 and around 207-210 pounds, he looks like a fit for a defense that values toughness, urgency, and disruptive tackling ability.
