Husker_Power Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Walk-on gray shirt, I think... meaning, he'll be walking on for the first year, and get a scolarship for his final 3 years. Greyshirts just have to wait a semester to go on schollie. This kid is a walk-on, won't be eligible for a schollie for a couple years. But they told him if things go as planned and he's our fullback he'll get a schollie. Like when Mangieri walked-on with the promise that he'd be on schollie in a couple years if he got the nod at long-snapper. Ah, thanks for clarifying. Link to comment

BIG ERN Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Andy reminds me of the guy off of the old school movie I watched on Disney: Motocrossed http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v227/smartie145/Disney/dean.png Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 The coaches have said this was the best walk on group they have ever had. This guy is a huge part of that comment. I am impressed. Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He's listed at 215....why? Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He's listed at 215....why? I thought he looked very quick the other nite and I was wondering if they put any weight on him yet. Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Idk, but he will be the starter for the rest of the season, me thinks. Link to comment
dylan Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 4 year starter walk-on. That's pretty impressive recruiting. Link to comment
Chaddyboxer Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 The kid is a freak! Seriously. He drove a linebacker and put him on his back during a running play that was a thing of beauty. Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 If he keeps playing the way that he has, then I think he can expect a scholarship before his senior year. The guy is an animal out there. Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Leverage, strength, and explosive power. Traits you love in a fullback. Skills he mastered as a steer wrestler in rodeo in high school Link to comment
