Player Spotlight Show: Lantz Mathers, Northwestern Oklahoma State

One of the biggest perks of this job is to be able to bring the relatively unknown players to you the listener of the NFL Draft Bible Player Spotlight Shows. I won’t lie and say if Tim Tebow was coming on next that I wouldn’t have a little jump in my step, because of course I would. Although today’s guest Lantz Mathers from the Northwestern Oklahoma State Rangers brings that same excitement to the show. Being named a two time NAIA All-American at defensive end during college Mathers projects to be a linebacker or fullback with his 5’10” at 261 pound frame at the next level. Both the Cleveland Browns and Green Bay Packers have shown interest in him and during the local pro day for the New Orleans Saints Mathers made a very big impression. His senior stats of 63 tackles, 7.5 sacks, and 4 fumble recoveries and a couple of block kicks put in perspective the athlete that embodies this young man. Humble and focused on his education being the first of six children to earn his degree Mathers knows that football isn’t the only thing in life and wants to have another avenue to go down if for some reason the NFL doesn’t pan out.
