Jordyn Brooks is just on the outside of being a top 10 all-time tackler at Texas Tech.
His production over the last 4 years:
2016 - 85
2017 - 89
2018 - 84
2019 - 60 (through 5 games)
That puts him at 318 career tackles.
Top 10 All-Time (according to Wikipedia)
1 Lawrence Flugence 500
2 Brad Hastings 480
3 Kevin Curtis 430
4 Michael Johnson 393
5 Zach Thomas 390
6 Matt Wingo 385
7 Shawn Banks 365
8 Cody Davis 362
9 Ryan Aycock 338
10 Charles Rowe 329
As of the OSU game JB is just 11 tackles shy of breaking the top 10.
For the "on pace" guy Brooks is averaging 12 tackles/game in 2019, which if matched for the rest of the season would put him at a career total of 402 tackles which is good enough for 4th all time.
To catch each person in the top 10 he would have to average the following:
10. Charles Rowe 1.5 tackles/game
9. Ryan Aycock 2.8 tackles/game
8. Cody Davis 6.3 tackles/game
7. Shawn Banks 6.7 tackles/game
6. Matt Wingo 9.6 tackles/game
5. Zach Thomas 10.3 tackles/game
4. Michael Johnson 10.7 tackles/game
3. Kevin Curtis 16 tackles/game
2. Brad Hastings 23.1 tackles/game
1. Lawrence Flugence 26 tackles/game
It's been a blast watching this kid play and am glad that his name gets to go down in our record books as one of the best to ever do it in a red and black uniform.
