Miles Kochevar gives Colorado State a steady, physical safety with proven production
In the 2005 season, Kochevar was a tackling machine at Colorado State, finishing with 91 total tackles and earning team MVP recognition, a strong sign of the kind of downhill, high-motor defensive back he was[5]. That profile matters because he was a captain, played with toughness, and later coached safeties/defensive backs, which suggests strong football IQ and communication skills beyond the box score[5][11]. For a team, the fit is clear: he looks like the kind of safety who brings reliability, accountability, and a coach-on-the-field vibe rather than flashy splash plays[5].
