Around the Gug the name Anothny Barr has been thrown around a couple times. Per a mod I forgot who made the comment

Does that mean he moves to D? I think that's where this kid could really shine.

Yup. He could be a stud in a bunch of positions.

Luckylucci · Nov 20, 2015

I continue to think his best long term position is at OLB but I've become more flexible. Also, it sounds like there are mixed reports on where the staff likes him. Probably because both staffs watch the tape and want to coach him.

Luckylucci · Nov 23, 2015

Scored 6 TD's in his game last Friday. #notfair

Irishman77 · Nov 23, 2015

I really want him to stay on offense.

Honestly never heard of this high school all star game previously.

Past Games and Rosters

Some impressive names over the years actually. Can't say I've ever seen the game on TV or anything though.

Think this kid could be an absolute beast at OLB. The staff loves Miles Boykin and I see them being similar players. I think he could be a very good WR, I think he could be an All American LB

This is where I'm at. Kid is a great athlete and dominates as a HS WR, but his junior film screams freak OLB.

The Anthony Barr comparison makes sense to me. We don't need help at WR we need a pass rusher and this kid just screams it.

Just way to big and athletic for that competition. He's such a smooth, fluid athlete for his size. He's going to succeed wherever we put him.

Probably the only correct answer and the only answer we will know until NSD or when fall camp starts. Wouldn't mind seeing a red shirt so by his red shirt sophomore year he can make Feldman's freak list and start looking like a Transformer.

Claypool's versatility would seem to help when recruiting a guy like Morris who wants to play WR assuming ND only wants 2 WR. If they were to land Morris one could play WR and the other could play LB.

Or is he just that good?

Skyrocketed to :s:

Overall Prospect #100 in the new Rivals 100 for 2016. Massive rise in the rankings for him from a low three star previously.

Helmboldt from Rivals seemed to love him on some recent review so I had a feeling he would rise up the rankings, but didn't think it would be like this.

Good for him.

Wow, when would be the last time we landed even just 5? Did we manage with the 2011 class?

2013 we technically signed 6 rivals 100 players but 5 showed up on campus as Eddie V ended up at UCLA.
