wasted very little time getting on our radar during his freshman season. Kerbo was not someone that we knew about around this time last year but it didn’t take long to figure out he was a name to know moving forward. Last season, he would lead the Tigers with 133 tackles and it wasn’t particularly close between him and second place. Simply put, he was a tackling machine for Mangum in 2024. We don’t have the stats for every defensive freshman from a year ago but we’d be surprised if any 2028 prospect had more tackles than Kerbo last fall. He’s firmly on our radar and we’re looking forward to seeing what he does for an encore this fall.

is playing at a very high level so far. The freshman is leading the team in tackles and what’s impressive is that second place is not particularly close. Kerbo is averaging right at ten tackles per game with 50 on the season and 30 of those tackles have been solo. If you took just his solo tackles and tossed his assisted, he’d still be one tackle off the lead for the team.
