Where Are They Now: Sirr Bible

From Long Beach to the Mountain West — a linebacker who never stopped winning.

Sirr Bible is exactly where he's supposed to be.

A three-star linebacker out of Long Beach who bet on himself at Millikan High, Bible turned a dominant senior year into a full-ride at San José State. Today he profiles as a rangy, athletic redshirt freshman with real "future leader of the defense" written all over him — on the field and off it.

From Los Al to Millikan

Before he was a Spartan, Bible built his name in the deep end of the pool: Southern California high school football.

He spent his first three prep seasons at Los Alamitos, helping the Griffins stack three straight Sunset League titles without ever dropping a league game. For his senior year, he transferred to Millikan in Long Beach and stepped into the Rams' defense as a proven winner with big-game reps already on tape.

That move set the stage for the best football of his prep career — and added to Millikan's recent surge of college-level talent.

The Senior Season That Sealed It

At Millikan, Bible became the tone-setter immediately, leading the Rams in both tackles and sacks. The production showed up in the hardware: Moore League Defensive MVP, a spot on the Press-Telegram Dream Team, and an invitation to the 605 All-Star Game.

He anchored a defense that powered another league championship and never blinked against top competition. Add it up across both stops, and the résumé line jumps off the page — Bible never lost a single league game in his entire high school career. That's not luck. That's winning DNA.

Scout Report: Size, Range, and Football IQ

Physically, Bible checks the modern off-ball linebacker boxes. He's listed in the 6-foot-1 to 6- foot-2 range at roughly 210–220 pounds, with a frame that can carry more good weight without costing him range.

Pair that build with his track record as a sideline-to-sideline producer and you've got a natural fit for today's defenses — backers who can run, cover grass, and still arrive in the box with pop. His high school tape shows a player comfortable both blitzing and dropping into space, which lines up cleanly with how San José State likes to deploy its athletic linebackers.

You don't lead a SoCal defense in sacks, handle coverage duties, and win league MVP without legit short-area burst and real football speed.

Recruiting Profile: Earned, Not Given

Recruiting services tagged Bible as a three-star prospect and a nationally ranked linebacker — a Top-150 backer in the country and a Top-200 overall prospect in California for the 2025 class. Strong numbers for a defender coming out of arguably the toughest talent pool in America.

He committed to San José State on May 8, 2024, locking in his future in the Mountain West, and made it official by signing with the Spartans on December 4, 2024. The full-ride he earned through senior-year dominance was now in ink.

Coaching Points: The Stuff That Doesn't Show Up on Film

Bible wasn't just a stat line. He wore the "C" as a team captain at two winning programs, leading by voice and by example. Coaches trusted him to align the front seven, communicate, and still produce at a high level — exactly the profile SJSU saw as a culture fit, not just an athlete.

Off the field, he stayed active in his school community as a member of the Black Student Union. That blend of leadership, academics, and engagement is what staffs look for when they're projecting future locker-room pillars and all-conference captains.

Where He Is Now: A Spartan on the Rise

Bible arrived at San José State with the 2025 class, wearing No. 56 at linebacker. He showed up with three-star pedigree, national rankings, and a championship résumé that buys instant credibility in a college locker room.

He projects as a redshirt freshman — and honestly, that's the perfect runway. A redshirt year lets the game slow down while his high school dominance translates to the FBS level. With his size, movement skills, and football IQ, he's positioned to push for snaps on defense and special teams as he grows into the college game.

Put it all together — never losing a league game, captaining two winning programs, racking up tackles and sacks, earning league MVP, and now landing in a system built for versatile backers — and you've got a linebacker primed to pop once the lights stop feeling so bright.

His ceiling is high. His leadership background tells you he's not just trying to crack the depth chart; he's trying to become the guy the Spartan defense is built around. Stay on this track, and Bible turns into one of those "how did everyone miss on him?" stories — the kind Mountain West programs win with by developing under-the-radar SoCal talent into all-conference players.

Where Are They Now?

Sirr Bible's path from Los Alamitos to Millikan to San José State isn't a surprise. It's a confirmation of who he's always been — a winner, a worker, and a leader in the making.

He's right where he's supposed to be.
