a relentless Cal Poly linebacker who brought heat every snap
In his Cal Poly career, Mark Restelli was a four-year starter who never missed a game, piled up 267 tackles, and finished among the school’s all-time tackle leaders—proof of a high-motor, durable defender who showed up everywhere. His profile screams instincts, range, and physicality, with added value as a playmaker through interceptions, tackles for loss, and special-teams impact. The biggest differentiator is the “hair on fire” reputation: he played with rare urgency and toughness, making him the kind of linebacker coaches trust to set the tone and stabilize a defense.
