Chattahoochee Head Coach Terry Crowder
"Barron's best days as a football player are still ahead of him. He was a definitely a great contributor for us this year and really helped our team make their dream
happen. He's just a fun kid to have around the program, always has a smile on his face.
"Barron is a big kid, but he's got plenty of room to get bigger. He is really agile, especially for a kid that size. As he continues to grow, he's going to develop into something special.
"Barron is an outstanding young man and a great person to have in your program. The Vanderbilt coaches at Vanderbilt have themselves a tremendous prospect."
