OL Matthew Burrell (transfer to Sam Houston St. Bearkats)

Is he an inside guy or what? Wariboko and Burrell to finish out? Seems like they are both inside guys to me. Kind of figured we wanted another true Tackle but I guess realistically you take the best guys available and work from there. Would be thrilled to land them both.

Not sure we are still out front here but Feder is a tackle all the way and Schmidt is a RT that can slide down to guard if need be imo...he has the feet and frame to play there. Wariboko is a guard all the way. I think Burrell is a wildcard honestly, he could end up at guard or tackle but I think he is better suited at guard.

Mind of Mike
Four-star offensive lineman Matthew Burrell Jr. was seen as a lock to Ohio State by some people not too long ago. Then Florida State crept into the picture, and now a third school is making a serious run. Butch Jones and Tennessee have made up a ton of ground since the season started, and made a great impression during his official visit earlier this month. Jones has made Virginia a recruiting priority and it definitely seems to be paying off as recruits are listening. Burrell is scheduled to take an official visit to Penn State this weekend for their game against Ohio State, but at this point it's the Buckeyes, Seminoles and Vols, with Tennessee definitely trending upward.
Speaking of Penn State, this is shaping up to be a huge weekend for the Nittany Lions. Heading into a night game against Ohio State, the Penn State coaching staff has lined up an impressive group of visitors, headlined by official visits from both Burrell and four-star defensive tackle Tim Settle, plus visits from other top 2015 targets Ricky DeBerry and possibly recently offered Clemson commit Juwuan Briscoe (mentioned earlier). More importantly, a number of top 2016 targets will be on hand, including Ahmir Mitchell, Jordan Fuller, Jauan Williams, Michal Menet, Naseir Upshur, Parker Boudreaux, Ron Johnson and Justin Layne. This is an enormous opportunity for Penn State, who will definitely have a raucous atmosphere on Saturday night. However, with the Nittany Lions floundering on the field in recent weeks and Ohio State embarrassing opponents during that same stretch, the risk is there that a dominant performance by the Buckeyes might push some recruits towards Columbus.
