Explosive HS Rusher Turned Undersized College LB Powerhouse
Jake Tamaska, a 5-9, 203-lb senior linebacker for Eastern Kentucky in 2009 after starring as a high school fullback with jaw-dropping efficiency (e.g., 218 yards on just 8 carries in a game), brings rare intensity and playmaking grit to the Colonels' defense—think compact bulldog who slips blocks and delivers big hits despite his size. Overlooked by D1A programs, his NFL camp stints highlight pro-level burst and football IQ; ideal fit for teams needing a relentless, high-motor tackler who maximizes every snap without injury red flags.
