A 38% whiff rate will not get you to the next level. I don’t know how patient the Pirates would be with him. His numbers are not good after 4 seasons of minor league ball. .215 BA. He is only 22 so I suppose they can give him another 1-2 years to turn things around.

Just curious though, why do you say that? Do you have an inside connection to him or Tep?
I’m not sure, but I do believe he was at PSU for one of the games this season with the RB from Tep committed to PSU, who apparently, is his good friend.
I have read/heard multiple reports from various insiders and podcasts.
Based on that info I doubt he is coming here.
Per the reports Mathis did not test well. His stock was dropping. He wanted mo money and OSU did not think he was worth as much. He is now looking around. Colorado and sec schools are in the mix.. Some think he is a project and more suited for DT. It was speculated that psu would take him but not at his asking price. Fans should not be upset if we lose him. The de Chaz who just committed to psu might have more upside. Hopefully OSU does not offer the new DE.
It looks like Franklin is pushing hard to flip PA TE Olesh from Michigan.
I did not say we were out but we are not the favorite and probably not pushing as hard since a de committed last week.
