"Reports about Barwis' expertise have generated only half of the hype. The other half has stemmed from the fiery intensity that permeates his persona. Together, those things have spawned stories that appear on the surface to be urban legend. Upon closer inspection, though, the rumors prove to be more fact than fiction."
"I don't want to challenge coach Barwis in anything," said junior wideout Greg Mathews. "I just want to stay on his good side, stay out of the doghouse, and go to class so I don't have to do any kind of punishment. Barwis was a cage fighter. He was 36-0 and never missed a match. He was telling us about 50 different injuries and never missed a match, and some of those injuries probably would have ended my career."
"Man, that guy is an animal," Detroit Catholic Central's Mike Martin said after his January visit to Michigan. "He is a beast. I would say that he stood out the most (during the visit). He showed quite a few exercises. Then he got down there and performed them. I like a coach that can do the drills that he is showing you.
"He pulled out these big bouncy balls that you do crunches on, and he jumped up on top of it. His assistant was throwing balls while he was catching them and keeping his balance at the same time. It was incredible. It helps build your core. He said we all will be able to do it, although it doesn't seem like that now. He is very intense. Coach Rodriguez told all of the recruits it is not a show, it is real, and that he is like this all the time."
