Michael Quarshie brings rare size, relentless backfield disruption, and captain-level toughness to Columbia
In his Columbia days, Quarshie was a disruptive interior force who led the Ivy League in tackles for loss in 2004 with 19, ranked third in Division I-AA with 1.90 TFL per game, and finished with 59 tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and a recovery. He was also a two-time All-Ivy selection and a scholar-athlete, which fits the profile of a high-motor, high-IQ defender who makes teammates better. If you want a physical DT with leadership, production, and sneaky athletic upside, this is your guy.
