Tulane LB Michael Guruli brings academic discipline and under-the-radar upside, but enters 2026 with no college game snaps yet
Michael Guruli is more of a developmental fit than a proven stat-sheet producer right now: Tulane lists the 5-foot-11, 220-pound redshirt freshman linebacker as a transfer from Rhodes, and it notes he did not earn any playing time in his first year after transferring. His appeal is in the profile, not the box score—he was a team captain and first-team all-district tight end in high school, plus a 4.2 GPA academic standout, suggesting intelligence, versatility and coachability. If you want a high-upside, hardworking depth piece, he merits a look.[3][5]
