UNC Commit Tyler Pritchett: "A barrel-chested, powerful kid"
Posted Apr 17, 2015
Class of 2016 offensive guard and UNC commit Tyler Pritchett (Auburn, AL) fills the interior lineman need for the Tar Heels' upcoming recruiting cycle. Barton Simmons, Director of Scouting at 247Sports, spoke on what he sees in the 6-foot-3, 290-pound lineman. "Alabama has been home to some really good interior offensive linemen the last few years and Pritchett is one of the best in the state this year," Simmons detailed. "He’s a thick, barrel-chested, powerful kid and that power and punch is what sets him apart."
