DT Masry Mapieu [Louisiana Lafayette - Signed LOI]

Coming into 2017 York defensive lineman and Nebraska commit Masry Mapieu had a couple goals, get a little faster and be able to play both sides of the ball.

An offseason of working hard has paid off, as Mapieu estimates he’s lost 25 pounds and the 6-foot-4 lineman now sits around 290 pounds.

“I’m trying to lose weight because I want to play both sides of the ball,” Mapieu said. “Coach John Parrella (Nebraska) thought it would be a good idea if I dropped some weight. He said I’d probably feel like a million bucks. I want to get down to 285.

“I’ve been sprinting a lot, eating the right food and lifting hard. I think my quickness has improved. I’m much faster off the ball from last year.”

Word is his grades are in good shape but he needs to get a good enough ACT score to make things work.

It wasn't clear if he had already taken the test and didn't get a good enough score or he hasn't even taken the test yet.

Yup, sounds like may have initially been overblown.
