Jeremy Lutali is the Viking heartbeat at linebacker
In the 2015 season, Jeremy Lutali emerged as Portland State’s defensive anchor, leading the team with 93 tackles and finishing as the program’s career tackles leader with 209[1]. He brought a high-motor, downhill style that coaches loved, pairing volume production with disruption: in the 2015 season he also added tackles for loss, forced fumbles, and an interception[1]. The upside is clear—he’s a tone-setter who flashes instincts and toughness—but the real appeal is the grit and reliability that don’t always show up in a box score[1].
