Mathews a Cat!

He has great size to go with a strong motor.

God Bless Delaware!!
What's not to like about this guy? Big guy who runs well. Probably needs a RS but will contribute. UK with success Up East primarily by White. This area, tho not producing a ton of prospects, does produce some really nice talent. Penn St/ND have dominated that area for years, nice to see UK moving in there.
 
So the listed measurements I saw are 6'5'' 250 lbs. Assuming those are exaggerated (because they tend to be for most) does he look like a future DE/DT or a OLB? I haven't seen any highlights.

I'll hang up and listen.

You see the size and think DE/Jack (if athletic enough), but the next 12/18 months will tell.

So many players that come in 240-260 bulk up passed 280, that you just don’t know
for sure.

Wonder how much this will help our recruiting ranking. I know it doesn't matter but just wonder.
For the moment, it bumped us up from 14th to 13th on Rivals.

Currently 14th by average recruit ranking.

I’d say by tonight the numbers will be clearly fixed.

Hand in the dirt DE who could grow into a DT of course. From film I've seen measurables look legit.
 
Stoops statement from U.K. athletic site:
"We're also excited to add Noah to our 2022 defensive class," Stoops added. "He fits the mold of what we're looking for in an edge defender. He possesses terrific length, twitch and power - all necessary attributes to be a difference-maker when stopping the run and rushing the passer. I can't wait to get him to Lexington to help develop his full potential."

I'd think 250 lb is about the ceiling on an OLB, isn't it? If he puts on 20+ lbs of good weight, he might be the next Josh Paschal. If he's got the quicks and the motor, he'd be a monster Josh Allen hybrid-type. Either way, glad he's on board. Sounds like he's got a lot of athletic ability and potential and we're just the guys to develop it.
