Living forever in the immense shadow of his grandfather, Tulane Green Wave linebacker Nico Marley is one of the best linebackers in the nation. He is also a player that very few people outside of the AAC even know about. That needs to change.
There is a strong belief that a player can get handed praise due to his family name. At first glance, one might be tempted to put Marley in that category. Despite having a musical icon as a grandfather and a father that played for the University of Miami, Nico has earned every single accolade thrown his way.
