I remember thinking at the time he was committed to ND that it was weird that he was so highly rated considering he had only played in four games before his junior year of high school, so he didn't have a lot beyond measurables to love as a prospect. Maybe there was something to that gut instinct.

Barnett seems to be one of those kids who peaked early and never progressed much after the age of 18. Great HS QB, but just never got a lot better after that. Lots of 5-star guys don't pan out in college because they've hit their ceiling at 18.

Well let's see, he's got the midwest, the deep south and out west covered. I project someplace northeast. I will guess Uconn as his next stop.

He got married, had a kid, and now he wants to go somewhere to get on the field for a year and try to make some cash in the NFL after that.

He'd be wise to AVOID power 5 schools (cough Malik cough), and instead head to a surefire starting position in the MAC, the Sun Belt, or CUSA (WKU?)

Appears the kid doesn't like competition or the hard work it takes to be successful.

I'd go to Wyoming. The scouts know where Laramie is and if he's as good as thinks, the staff knows how to showcase that level of talent.

Don't see the NFL happening.

My money is on Oregon. I just don't see any way that JHOP lets Barnett get away this time. I mean, he's been recruiting him for like 4 or 5 years now. He's got to eventually get him, right?

Meh, I thought this was bumped because another picture of his ol lady surfaced. This kind of rained on my sunny day.
