Technically, he could come in under a baseball scholarship. The second he stepped on the football field in a game though, he'd count against the 85. Considering the limited scholarships in baseball, this would never happen. He'd come in on a football ship from the start.

Works the same way with academic scholarship. We could get a really smart player in on an academic scholarship, but as soon as he hit the football field he would be a scholarship player on the 85.

 
Reports are we like Dale and Sunderland more than Doherty. But with Dale in limbo and Sunderland a Sooner lean, Doherty isn't out of the picture.

Are you 100% sure about that? Last I knew kids that come in on academic scholarships wouldn't count towards the limit.

It's true. This is the reason that Todd Peterson couldn't take a Regents Scholarship. Otherwise people would just make up scholarships to exceed the 85 limit.

 
I would not know for sure but I would think that would be against the NCCA regulations as it would be kind of an unfair advantage. Just for being really smart. SMH

That's correct. I just wanted to add that the schollie only gets added to the 85 if the player is in an actual game. Can practice and be on the sidelines with a non-football schollie. I think (but am not sure) that the player can go back on the non-football schollie the next year until/unless the player gets on the field again.

 
Something has seemed fishy for awhile. Seemed like serious mutual interest and a commit coming during early summer, then it just seemed to die.

Did we burn a bridge by telling him we were taking Dale and then watch as he laughed at us?

No, he was asked not to long ago and he didn't even know about it.

You know what happened Fowler? Did the fact he is a very good baseball player make us hesitant?

 
This kid had N written all over him. I saw he picked up a crystal ball today for Oregon. We are still recruiting DBS for this class and ATH I'm surprised we didn't take him.
