Missouri State LB Honored for Elite Tackling & Leadership
Pat Fornadel earned top honors at Missouri State's 2012 football awards banquet as a senior linebacker, showcasing outstanding athleticism, scholarship, leadership, and character alongside teammate Schaffitzel's league-leading 109 tackles and 5 INTs; while specific stats for Fornadel are sparse, his recognition highlights a high-motor defender with team-first intensity—ideal for programs seeking reliable, character-driven LBs who elevate locker rooms, though limited recent college data suggests he's best suited for developmental or special teams roles post-college.
