Riverview standout lands first offer

Marshall has become the first Division I-A football program to offer Riverview defensive end Quincy Barr a scholarship, but it might not be the last. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound senior, the anchor of the Sharks defensive line, has 50 tackles and 2.5 sacks.

"Most people have to account for this kid," Riverview coach Dan O'Regan said. "He's a speed guy off the edge. And he has great range."

Southern Miss and South Florida also are interested, the coach said.

this kid is overrated ...

I am a defensive coach at Brandon High School. I watched this kid play against Sarasota last week. I was scouting their offense but he jumped off the page at me. He is a very talented young man with a great future in this game. Nothing is better than seeing a great defensive player. Good luck son and stay healthy. Keep up your grades. The athletic part is easy. The education part is most important...good luck
