Justin Lynch, am I right?
If Mathis is legit, there's no way the kid is here for 4 years if he's good enough to be the backup as a true freshman or even be in the conversation as a true freshman. No sense redshirting him and preserving his eligibility.
Unless Mathis is SO good that he leaves in 2 years for the NFL? But Lynch is not going to sit for 4 years and watch Mathis play.
