WOW.

B-E-A-S-T

"OK, this kid could be pretty special," Jones thought. The more he observed Barnett, the more amazed he was by Barnett's motor. "It's unreal," Jones says.

JUST.

A.

SOPHOMORE.

"Barnett's record-setting season is even more impressive when you consider that he went up against two offensive tackles who were first-round NFL picks (Iowa's Brandon Scherff and Florida's D.J. Humphries), a sixth-rounder (Oklahoma's Tyrus Thompson) and a seventh-rounder (South Carolina's Corey Robinson), as well as two guys who many expect will become first-rounders in future drafts -- Alabama's Cam Robinson and Ole Miss' Laremy Tunsil. In those six games, he had 11.5 TFLs and six sacks."

O M GEE.

Best defensive player in the nation imo. Clowney is overrated but Barnett is legit.

Last tease:

"He just plays really hard," said Ole Miss co-OC and O-line coach Matt Luke, who watched Barnett make 10 tackles, four TFLs and three sacks in Oxford last October. "If you stop his first move he gives you another one, he gets off blocks, he keeps coming. He didn't play like a true freshman. He gave Laremy some problems. He's not just a pass rusher. He's big enough to play on a tight end and tackle and stop the rush. Usually most guys are either good against the run or good pass-rushers. He's both."

Great news for Barnett is that he is going to have 4 or 5 other 4 stars and 3 other 5 stars in the DL rotation with him so he won't get double teamed all the time and can stay fresh.

Should have a sensational Sophmore season.

I like his last quote too.

"We are going to win the SEC Championship, we're good. We have a lot of talenthere."

This team is about to be playing with a lot more confindence than they have the last 7 or 8 years.

Tennessee has some peices but having bama as the cross division rival doesn't do them any favors.
