4-Star Barnett Enjoys Weekend At VT

Woodland (Dorchester, S.C.) defensive end Michael Barnett , Jr., easily passes the eye test as a top flight recruit. The 6’7″ rising junior is a lean and solid 225 pounds. The lengthy and athletic prospect was at Virginia Tech this past weekend, first participating in the one-day camp and then staying for the Prospect Day recruiting event on Sunday.

Describing the camp experience, Barnett said: “I really like the experience and interacting with the coaches more as far as what they want me to do in drills and stuff. I really liked it a lot.”

Barnett enjoyed the experience on Sunday as well.

“I got to tour the campus, try on jerseys and stuff. I got to see the locker room and they showed us a motivational film. The coaches told us about themselves… it was pretty cool,” Barnett said.
