Honorable-mention all-American anchors ASU’s veteran linebacking corps and the defense as a whole from his middle linebacker position ... is bigger than the prototypical ASU ‘backer but has the athleticism to play as well against the pass as against the run ... has started 19 of ASU’s last 20 games at middle linebacker and is expected to man the position again in ‘08.

2007: Earned honorable-mention all-America recognition from The Sports Network after leading the team and tying for second in the SoCon with 127 total tackles (49 solo) ... tied for third in the conference with two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries ... the two forced fumbles ranked among ASU’s biggest plays of the season — the first quelled a Michigan drive in ASU’s 34-32 win in the season opener and the second, which came at the ASU nine yard line with less than a minute remaining, prevented James Madison from attempting a chip-shot game-winning field goal in ASU’s 28-27 win in the first round of the NCAA Division I playoffs ... had five tackles (four solo) to go along with forced fumble in the opener at Michigan ... had back-to-back double-digit tackle games versus Northern Arizona (14) and Wofford (13) ... notched third double-digit tackle performance of the season with 11, including one-and-a-half for loss, against Georgia Southern ... matched the season-high one-and-a-half TFL and recovered a fumble the following week at Furman ... in addition to the decisive forced fumble in the opening-round playoff win versus JMU, added 20 tackles (the second-most in ASU postseason history) and a 77-yard fumble return that set up an ASU touchdown in the one-point win ... racked up 39 tackles in four postseason games ... finished season with four double-digit tackle efforts ... four quarterback hurries were good for fourth on the squad ... 5.5 tackles for loss tied for seventh on the team ... started every game at middle linebacker but the regular-season finale, in which senior Cam Speer started in Roman’s place.

2006: Had 44 tackles in 14 games, including 2.5 for loss and a sack ... also hurried the passer once and broke up four passes ... had a career day in first-career start, tallying nine tackles and a sack at Gardner-Webb ... had six stops at Chattanooga and at home against The Citadel ... broke up a pair of passes in regular-season finale at Western Carolina ... made five tackles in postseason debut versus Coastal Carolina.

2005: Redshirted.

High School: Two-year starter earned all-state recognition as a senior in 2003 ... helped lead Camden County to Georgia 5A state championship with a perfect 15-0 record during senior campaign ... part of a CCHS defense that recorded nine shutouts in ‘03 ... selected to play in 2003 Georgia North-South all-star game ... did not play football in 2004 ... coached by Jeff Herron.
