Video starts at 4:36 you are welcome. Matt likes to Yap about nothing at the start of every video as we all know
Thanks
thx!
Agreed
god bless you!!
Dude I wanted to never listen or watch this guy's videos again after that waste of life that was the first 5 mins... geezus h christ that was brutal...
Some people will never understand being good at something.But your heart just isn't in it anymore
I relate to this guy. Back in the 80's...I wasn't the "5 star" guy...but I had offers to smaller schools. My heart just wasn't in it. I didn't LOVE, LOVE football that much. I wanted to be a STUDENT. Join a fraternity and have that "college experience" that athletes don't fully get. I don't regret my decision a bit. My "heart" wasn't in the game. I had bigger fish to fry.
@@scottbaron121 I have had multiple friends decline offers to play D3 or JUCO basketball, football, wrestling, etc to just focus on school and life. Can’t hate them but couldn’t be me
This is not meant to be shade in any way; he seems like the kind of guy with solid, wealthy parents and probably didn't need an NFL payday to do just fine in life.
Seems like he made the right decisions he could at the time and has turned out to be a solid dude. You love to see it.
People who live in cold states never want to realize most athletes don’t want to live in cold states 😂
The money is MADE in cold states weirdo- OG
But the best QBs we know play for cold states in the NFL
Why not? When u play in the NFL u have to play in the cold. So why not get ready for it? Why just play in the heat? But yet all Alabama QBs suck anyway. They only had 2 good ones. Joe Nathan, and the dude from Miami dolphins.. everyone else pretty much sucked!!
@@Ken-fg7br Just for it to get taken in State and federal taxes 😂 there’s a reason players are happy to go to the south when they go pro. And you recover better from injuries in a warmer climate.
People who live in warm states never want to realize that most athletes don’t care about the weather
Being a rich pro football player is not the pinnacle of success! The dude happened to play football and be good at it! He also happened to be a great husband, father, and grill master! People need to stop projecting what they think a successful life is! He looks happy, his family looks happy, and he looks to be successful with his business! The rest of yall who hate on him can kick rocks
Great kid came to terms with his career and moved on with his life nothing but respect !!
😊
Yes, my brother is friend's with him and his family. He doesn't own a barbeque business, but works at a barbeque restaurant. Other than that, great video!
When he committed to Notre Dame, he was 4th, but when he decommitted and committed to Bama, he became number one without any improvements. shitty rankings
Matt, I have been following you for sometime now. First thanks for this video! I always wondered what happened to Bama starting QB who was ahead of Jalen Hunts. As I recalled that year Bama Offensive Line was not good. Blake was suppose to be a stud but without blockers he looked suspect! If Jalen Hurts first read wasn't open he would just run. Without a QB spy that threw off the defense and made Jalen looked like a stud. With Blakes injury he did what was best for him and his family. Once again thanks for everything you do. ROLL TIDE!
You can say what you want, but Barnett was just making excuses. He came from money, and when it was shown that he was clearly overrated from the rankings, he moved on 3 separate times before an injury said, "im done."
Dude never had any real love for football and you can see that.
He had options. A lot of guys feel like their only option is football, thus they put 110% into it. A lot of the best athletes (there are exceptions) come from poor opportunities. He wasn't worried about facing poverty if he didn't make it. The decisions he made in recruiting and college career weren't very well guided either
@@gearheadgaming1537 agree with everything you said.
Bama fan here and a big Blake Barnett supporter. I was so disappointed when he didn't win the starting job at Bama. Lane Kiffin was a great OC but he always favored the running QBs and not the pocket passers. As for Saban, I would point out that he had great relationships with other offensive players such as Hurts, Tua, Mac Jones, D Henry, etc, so I think that's not a fair statement. But Barnett is winning at life because he has a gorgeous wife and family, and he's got a good career. I'm glad he's doing well. The NFL may be flashy but it comes with a price, so I don't blame anyone for not having the desire to play in the NFL.
kelly bryant former clemson qb went to missouri haven’t heard a thing since
Bro got ran outta Clemson by T Law 😂
@@__yklimnot Ty Law but Trevor Lawrence
Great job! Never heard of thisguy before but I have a lot of respect for him after seeing this well made video.
NCAA 25 content loading
It takes a great deal of character to be humble enough to know when to walk away from anything...
He's a winner 🏆
That was the problem with going to alabama in the saban years. You better perform and do it quick
This was a good video dude
I remember that game clearly, when the camera showed a close up when Bama had the ball, he had a deer in the headlight look. I knew he was done
He did just fine with his life
Yo matt ima need ncaa 25 content😏
No
@@jonn8911 yes fn
Play it yourself dummy
Dude I was at that USC game when Hurts came in and stamped his legacy at Bama! When Barnett transferred it was a shock and disappointment but like you said two sides to every story! Props to him for making his next move his best move after football! Blake Barnett keep grinding bro! Roll Tide!
Shoot, as a dude from Alabama, I remember Blake Barnett well, and the hype was real!
life happens can’t judge the gentlemen to bad .
Dude made excuses, quit immediately when he wasn't the starter, and quit football altogether after one injury.
He never really cared about it much. He came from money, so none of this bothers him.
Barnett has that "Zach Wilson" look about him.
Jalen Hurts replaced Barnett back then and now Hurts earns $51 million per season.
It just wasn't in the cards for Barnett.
He did make it further than you!
Pulling up the stats for that USC game was very disingenuous. He recorded pretty all those yards and the TD in garbage time in the fourth against backups.
He alluded to the fact he didn’t sell out multiple times.. IF TOU DONT SELL OUT FOR YOURE PASSION.. SONEONE ELSE WILL!!
Maybe bring a superstar nfl qb is not what he wanted! Did you ever think of that? Some people are no willing to sell their souls and morals just to be a rich professional athlete
Great video of the real story on Blake. I know the feeling of disconnect with a new coach. Had no idea the full reason on why he transferred midseason. Us Bama grads/fans think our school is the end all-be all, but sometimes it’s just not a good fit. Not for everyone.
I enjoy your videos and sense of humor. You bash people but usually cut them slack in the end to stay objective. Roll Tide.
PS. You should definitely try to get Agiye Hall on the show. Hope he’s gotten his act together and has a good year.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE "WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THIS GUY" CARMONI VIDEO!!😂 See you in about a year or two for that one!! 😂😂
Crazy hate
There's no one named carmoni
@@user-bd3zy6wo7l yeah well you know exactly who I'm referring too........
@@__yklim It goes well beyond hate!
The new transfer portal is crazy . A bunch of divas nowadays. Not solid football players .
I thought he was gonna be a beast at ND, never knew the reason he decommitted. Nice video
Half these hs clips are of Blake Barnett from Erie Hs in colorado, bro committed to kstate. All the orange helmets and black and white jerseys are erie
self aware man who wanted to focus on his family, can't hate on that! great video
As a USC fan I remember his first start vs USC. When he was ass then Jalen Hurts came in to destroy them
The reason Jalen Hurts stayed for the whole season was so he didn't get his schoolwork interrupted. Student first, athlete second. Worked out pretty well for him.
Oil up matt
What happened to shame 💀😭
@@crilinramirez55😂
Hey Matt, can we get a reaction to the NCAA 25 trailer and the athletes that are on the cover cause I’m surprised you didn’t make that video yet
is there any correlation between "The Ranch"'s Colt Bennett and Blake bennett ?
I remember that season opener against USC. You nailed it Barnett didn’t play “terrible”. just the offense moved so much more fluid with Jalen hurts. His dual threat ability was just too much for defenses to handle.
So early thats theres no comments only bots😂😂😂
Cold weather only sucks for guys not playing.
Blake is a winner, great attitude!
It's so much that goes on with football though u never know bruh
I can't imagine why a California kid would want to go to Alabama.
Defensive coordinators are the best transition to QB development. You want to know how to beat defenses? Get with a genius on defense.. learn every look and get better.
The baseball hat says it all. He’s a geek at heart. Problems scoring a woman?? put on a wedding ring. They’ll beat a path to your door.
Man this kid would be on his 2nd contract right now. Making 40 million a year…….wow
Billy Napier ended up at Louisiana for 2018 season, who was the original coach who recruited Blake to asu?
Chip Lindsay
I remember watching him kill it at the Elite 11
Can u make a video on the ncaa game coming out
No
He did it
@@UnknownSource08he did it
@@howtogetawaywithgaming2146 just to say he’s been busy making videos. We all know what road to glory will bring. We don’t care about white Randy’s destiny
I thought it was ridiculous that he was rated as a 5 star with those throwing mechanics.
I said he would never be the starting QB for Alabama and I was almost right. He was the starter for one game.
Phil Robertson threw away his career..the only reason Terry Bradshaw got a shot.
He got 7 snaps with a brand new o-line...
Being a life long USC fan and my dad being acquaintances with the guy; Labe Kiffin WAS a Deadbeat Alcoholic coach who didn't care about his players and caused scenes in bars ALL THE TIME. Ive heard good things from him being at Ole Miss
What do NFL scouts think of players who "Don't like playing in cold weather"? If you want to go pro,you have to learn to play in all weather
Literally most pro football players don’t start till junior year
That's how recruiting works. Ever notice how if Alabama, Ohio State or Georgia even looks a players way he jumps 1 or 2 stars in the rankings. As soon as they do, every other program is putting them on the radar. And that is part of the reason some kids with skills and potential will slip through the cracks and then end up at directional state U leading an upset of a major program.
Jalen Fumble on ghat first series and me and my friend said that fumble will be legendary 😂
Why does it seem like Arizona State is always the school a guy either comes from or goes to. It’s like the school for 5 star rejects or 2 stars who turn into 5 stars later on
Do a story on big time recruits that goy hurt in high school. There are plenty of us. We might have made it but the injury derailed our career
Matt be great at stealing videos. 🤣 That one got blurred so you just steal a whole interview from someone else. Lol is this one gonna get blurred too?
Legend. Great channel. Great story. Struesgod.
Anything on NCAA 25?
Damn..whose the blonde at the 8:00 mark??
we need the what happened to danny etling he fell of a cliff
Didn't he go to Purdue & transfer to an average on offense LSU team. I believe he was a late round draft choice & a career backup. Weak arm QB that could not run.
I’d say he left due to his family and he simply lost his passion for the game with those bad experiences.
Kid’s got rich parents end of story…
I would have to say that Matt wasn't in the club, so he wouldn't be signing a Faustian bargain. They need club members to do their rituals. Life is darker then we know about. Good for him because he wouldn't have to sacrifice any of his family, friends or pets. Plus he wouldn't be dying by the numbers.
Sunny 24/7??? You sure about that? If it's sunny for 24 consecutive hours I'm fairly certain that the temperature will not be 75°.
Matt it's USF not UCF. If you did say it correctly. My apologies.
Matt, why do so many quarterbacks transfer to and from Arizona State? We need to look at why they get these guys and can’t groom them to the next level🤔
He didn’t know it snowed in Indiana?
Sideways.
"Threw his career away" 🥴🥴🥴
He just didnt keep pursuing it bc he didnt love it.
Before this vid goes futher i just want to say "he quit to sell Pokemon cards!" lets see if im right
Could have been a IE LEGEND
Man I forgot about him. Great video Matt!
11:33 that narrative is getting flipped buddy
If Blake was any good and balled out, he would have started..

Stop milking Matt

I don’t want to play in the cold.
WEAK.
He didn't want to play at Notre Dame because of the cold, what was he going to do in the NFL? And he's complaining about not having a great relationship with Saban--he was a freshman, he hadn't proven anything. Sounds like he's just soft and entitled and didn't really love football enough to compete.
You sound stupid.
Decommitted is the weakest word ever even though it has become common. Failure to honor a commitment is called default, exposing a lack of integrity. Changing your mind is fine and good, but you do all that before you make a commitment or else you just lied. Sometimes you have to suck it up buttercup.
Uh Oh
Matt buying bot views hard..lol
Canelo’s lil bro
I would take a wonderful marriage over a any kind of career any day of the week
YALL THINK MATT MIGHT BE GAY?
My first guess was sex change. Anybody else??
You saying Notre Dame isn’t a prestiges school like Ohio State is insane.
BORING EPISODE
MattB💩
I feel bad for this kid. His parents should have tried to push into a program that would have benefited his skill set more than a prestige of a name of a school. Just imagine if you would have went to North Dakota State like Josh Allen or Trey young he'd be in the league right now
It would be funny to see a college athlete refuse to play in the NFL because they have already made a lot of money already and don't want to risk any (more) brain injuries. Maybe that will convince people not to give these students so much money.
So let the university take all the money? Ok bozo
@@UnknownSource08 if they use the money to pay for students scholarships that would be usefull
@@haldemarest ya that cheap. Here’s a free scholarship while we take the millions. Lmao
@@UnknownSource08 I meant they could use the money to give other people non-sports scholarships and make it easier to get into a good college. Now go and hide behind your trust found while complaining about smart kids going for free because the schools have more money to pay for their stuff now.
@@haldemarest huh? I own a hvac company. Now go to work and make someone else Rick lmao
One comment was right. Get on with the Fn story.
