"A teammate of All-American Bob Brazile, Tate was a standout three-year starter at strongside linebacker for Jackson State, winning Pittsburgh Courier All-American honors the past two years as well as All-Conference laurels with Brazile. Nicknamed 'Wildman' by teammates, Tate had 74 solo tackles, 41 assists, four quarterback sacks and an interception for 21 yards and a touchdown in his senior season. He also doubled as a punter with a 35.8 average for 25 punts in his final season.
A native of Mobile, Alabama, John is 22 and still resides in Mobile."
