finished his junior campaign with a whopping 120 tackles. He was the only prospect in 4A to finish with more than 100 tackles, out-pacing second place by nearly 30 tackles. All-in-all, between the last two seasons, Milburn has put together 222 tackles.
Some mind-boggling numbers there, Hansen’s teammate is a monster on the other side of the field for the Cardinals. A prospect that relentlessly pursues the football while keeping his head on a swivel, Milburn is a menace on the gridiron for opposing offenses. Whether it’s filling a gap on a run play, getting after the ball-carrier in the backfield or tracking them down on the perimeter, Milburn is going to find a way to bring down the ball-carrier. In addition to the 120 tackles, he finished the year with 18.5 tackles-for-loss and three sacks.
Somehow just receiving his first Division I offer from Northern Illinois, Milburn is the type of recruit that programs can be built around, where production far outweighs some of his still good physical traits, as he stands at 6-foot-3 and 220 pounds. With another year of terrorizing offenses, he could be in the mix for the award next year.
