More on Mike Labinjo
Description from Wikipedia:
Mike Labinjo aka "Binjo" (born July 8, 1980 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is professional Canadian football player currently playing for the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League.
Labinjo attended prestigious St. Michael's College School, in Toronto, Ontario. From 1999 to 2003 Labinjo played American football at Michigan State University.
Originally recruited as a running back, he moved to linebacker for his sophomore season. He started all 12 games as the strong side linebacker in 2001. As a junior Mike played in 12 games, including 8 starts. His senior season, 2003, proved to be his most productive collegiate year. Mike was the recipient of the Downtown Coaches Club Award as the outstanding senior on defense, after posting a career high 94 tackles (58 solos) with five sacks for minus 43 yards and 11.5 stops for losses of 66 yards. He also recovered two fumbles, intercepted three passes and deflected five others.
After graduating from Michigan State University and earning a bachelor's degree in Economics and Finance in December 2003, Labinjo declared for the NFL Draft. The linebacker was not drafted by an NFL franchise, but was drafted in the 2003 CFL draft. His rights were selected by the Calgary Stampeders in the 3rd round, as the 25th overall selection.
2007 saw Labinjo join the Calgary Stampeders. He played in six games in his first CFL season before giving way to a season-ending elbow injury. He made two defensive tackles and four special teams tackles.
