Dru Mathis took to Twitter to announce that he has received a scholarship offer from Illinois. This is a big offer for the Illini considering Mathis is already a polished player at the college level.
Mathis is a 6-foot-3, 205-pound inside linebacker from Buena High School in Ventura, California. Coming out of high school, he was rated as a three-star recruit who was the No. 1306 player in the class of 2016 and the No. 54 inside linebacker in the nation.
The number of teams recruiting Mathis was strong, but he ended up picking San Diego State.
