ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I just watched his senior film. Let me just say, if we land him, we have to utilize this kid. You can't teach his speed and his hands are like glue. If we land him, he'll be my favorite commit in the class. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,598 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I'm starting to wonder if we'll take five WR this year? Ross is an obvious take. We have only six slots left. Do we use two of them for a fourth and fifth WR? I'm doubting it unless several targets at other positions fall through. Now, there's a way around this: Sign Schwartz to a track scholarship and let him run track his first year at AU. He won't be able to play football on a track scholly but we'll have him on campus. Then we can sign him to a football scholarship next year when we won't have such a numbers crunch and he'll have four years to play four. PS: There's an NCAA rule: If a recruited athlete is on scholarship and plays football or basketball, his scholarship must be assigned to football or basketball. That's why Schwartz wouldn't be able to play football his first year in the above scenario. And no, a recruited athlete cannot be put on academic scholarship and play his sport either, he's immediately counted against his sport's limit. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is something I don't know. I suspect it's like baseball, normally partial but an outstanding prospect can get the full ride. The % of full scholarship being up to the head coach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creative plan, but Schwartz is a blue chip athlete and doesn't necessarily need to deal with such inconveniences. If I were him I'd want to come in and be a part of the football culture from the start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rarely is there a full ride to any athlete. Typically it is some percentage and you have to pay for the rest of the tuition. 9 minutes ago, AUDevil said: Creative plan, but Schwartz is a blue chip athlete and doesn't necessarily need to deal with such inconveniences.

Agreed, Interesting plan @Mikey but this kid turned down a full ride track scholarship personally offered by Carl Lewis so he could play football. I doubt he comes to AU to run track for a year. I say it is first come first scholarship between him and Ross. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well football wise AU & Florida are his final 2 & it remains to be seen how interested Mullen actually is in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I just inferred it from the article you posted: Quote Schwartz is perhaps most known for his elite track ability. Houston sprinters coach Carl Lewis personally recruited Schwartz to exclusively run track for the Cougars, but ultimately Schwartz’s desire to play football at the next level outweighed his continued Olympic dream.

ellitor 33,093 Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 That's Wolk's interpretation. To my knowledge Houston is still in the hunt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steeleagle 2,945 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I think Mullen is going to have more success, using FL as his chip when recruiting. He did well at MSU with the limits MSU recruiting has with their small stadium..and other lessor recruiting extras. But I worry, since I do like his offense..and I can see Schwartz fitting in a little better there than how Gus/Chip so far in their evolving offense tends to forget certain WRs on drives (NCM, Hastings..etc..lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus won’t ever forget those plays. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been more of a big bodied type pf WRs coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mullen's expertise to me is QB development. I never thought Prescott would be this good in the NFL..but Prescott said one time that Mullen's offense was NFL type, but only difference they didn't go under center. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he can do this at Auburn all day...screens that is. Edit: Ryan Davis gets plenty of short and intermediate passes as well. No need to go to Florida for that.
