per BTN:

Offensive Tackle: Maurice Walker, Minnesota: Maurice Walker weighed 340 pounds when he arrived on campus back in 2010. Since that time, the Gophers’ big man has lost nearly 100 pounds, and has improved just about every aspect of his game. He still has good size, but is much more mobile with better footwork. Sounds like an ideal offensive tackle, to me. If you had to choose someone to protect the quarterback’s blindside, Walker is a good choice.

Go Gophers!!
 

1, this is stupid and 2, Mathieu was the quickest player in the conference and they don't put him anywhere so it's even dumber.
 

It's easy to tell we've reached the "dead zone" between the two main playing seasons (football and men's basketball).

Probably just because a player of his build might literally die playing tackle football.

That said, yeah, he should have been named as a scat back or KR

Its actually pretty fun and Mathieu would have made punt return no doubt if they had it.

there are plenty of guys that are 5-9 and 160-175. Ever heard of Venric Mark, Deanthony Thomas, Dontre Wilson, Dri Archer etc. TCU actually has a 5-6 148 pound QB signed for next year.
