Barnett has made the switch from playing guard as a freshman last season to occupying the center position this year. The transition has been seamless and quite successful. The son of Iowa offensive line coach George Barnett has grown physically and sharpened his skills since his ninth-grade campaign. Beyond the five pancakes blocks for which he’s been credited, Barnett controls the action in the middle of line, displaying the necessary skill set to succeed in the involved, and sometimes hectic world of the center spot. He’s technically sound with active hands and a good pad level. Barnett plays balanced and is athletic enough to reach blocks in space with ease. He’s one of the better offensive lineman in the state already with plenty of room to grow.
