Yes, ILBs are MLBs.

Here are some tackle-not-sacks LBs with 150+ tackles since 2005 (p5):
Luke Kuechley, BC (thrice 150+)
Evan Weaver, Cal (twice 150+)
Ben Burr-Kirven, UW
Jay Higgins, IA
Scooby Wright, ARI (+14 sacks, dude was on crack)
Mason Foster, UW
Jordon Dizon, CU
Abdul Hodge, IA
Curtis Lofton, OU
Chad Greenway, IA
Tim McGarigle, NW
Kenneth Murray, OU
Sean Weatherspoon, MIZ
Alvin Bowen, ISU
Greg Jones, MSU
Dele Harding, ILL
Kentrell Brothers, MIZ
Lavonte David, UNL
J Leman, ILL
Scott McKillop, PIT
Eric Kendricks, UCLA (150 & 149)
Mike Taylor, WIS
.
So, as most of us know, this list is funny, because all the all-time tackles leaders were in the 70s, when teams ran the ball 80% of the time.  But these are the modern guys.  I only know of some of them.

Again, since 2005 only (sigh), P5 edge guys (mostly) with 15+ sacks in a season:
Elvis Dumervil, UL (20)
Hau'oli Kikaha, UW
Will Anderson Jr, ALA
Josh Allen, UK
Von Miller, A&M
Donovan Ezeiruaku, BC
Chase Young, OSU
Harold Landry, BC
Antwaun Powell, VT (FLA transfer)
Demarcus Walker, FSU
Whitney Mercilus, ILL
Greg Middleton, IU
Gregory Rousseau, MIA
Carl Nassib, PSU
Da'Quan Bowers, CLEM
Trent Murphy, STAN
Brandon Sharpe, TTU
Willie Evans, MS ST
.
Again, sacks weren't an official stat for a long time, but we know of 20+ sack guys from pre-2005, like Derrick Thomas, Terrell Suggs, and others, like DT Tim Ryan of USC, Bruce Smith of VT.  A human person named Kiki DeAyala had 22.5 sacks for the Horns in 1982.  Hmmph.
