Matt is an older prospect (25) who played minor league baseball in the Chicago Cubs organization as a catcher.  But, he was able to win a National Championship at Louisiana State this past season.Mauck played minor-league baseball for three years after graduating from Jasper High School in Indiana. When he came to Louisiana State University in 2000, he informed Saban that he only planned to stick around until he graduated. Mauck finished his career with an 18-2 record as a starter, the best winning percentage in school history, even though he missed the second half of his sophomore season because of torn ligaments in his right foot. Matt Mauck should be the MVP of the offense and should lead the Tigers back into SEC West contention. Mauck was injured in a rout against Florida, and must now defeat Marcus Randall for the starting job. However, Mauck appears to be 100% and ready to go. With receivers Michael Clayton and Devery Henderson returning, Mauck should put up huge stats. Matt has good accuracy on all levels, but really struggles when he is pressured.  He leads his receivers on short throws and can throw the ball down the field with some accuracy.  He shows better than average touch as he understands how much he needs to put on his throws.  His field vision is average, but he worked better out of the shotgun where he could see the entire field and had more time to work.  Matt does see the whole field, but is slow to make his progressions.  Matt is a good athlete that can move outside of the pocket.  He is smart and knows when to slide as well.
