durable Bears linebacker with real two-way grit
James Schrenk’s Northern Colorado profile shows the kind of player coaches love: a local Greeley product who made the switch to linebacker, played in every game, and earned an All-Big Sky honorable mention as a senior in his Northern Colorado career. He wasn’t just a volume guy either—he combined special-teams value, linebacker instincts, and toughness, finishing his Bears run with 67 career tackles and 44 straight games played. The fit? If a team wants a reliable, high-motor defender who brings edge, versatility, and no-nonsense consistency, Schrenk checks a lot of boxes.
