Actually about Commack, a lot of players who have already graduated and have an extra year of eligibility dont necessarily get athletic scholarships do they? On OSU boards when Wagner was of interest, they said they wouldnt have to burn a scholly on him, but just give him some academic scholarships instead.

I would be thankful if somebody can confirm whether he is coming or not. Very curious.

Brother initially played at West Point for two seasons and transferred. It was a multiple style offense, he did a little bit of everything, but spent most of the time under center in pro style sets with at least one tight end on the field, but the team had enough weapons to spread it out. This Tyrone team was very balanced and could do a lot of things well with Franco leading the offense despite the lack of size up front. I've said it on other threads, but Akron's got themselves a stud at QB if he transitions ok.
