Getting players who are listed as athletes as recruits is the ultimate piece of clay that a coaching staff could receive. In the case of 4-star recruit Mathias Barnwell they are getting either a large defensive end or tight end with a ton of promise.
His measurables have him on track to be a unicorn tight end or a dominant defensive end if he can be coached up properly and be receptive to it. We know James Franklin and his staff can develop players so it will be on him to take those physical gifts and take the next step.
