If Buzz really is recruiting still for next year, as has been widely reported, could the scholarship for the new guy be Frozena's? As a walk-on, I dont think he's guaranteed to retain the scholarship. He's also a really smart guy (#2 in high school class), so the University could probably give him an academic scholarship. This way we don't lose any players from next years roster.
Frozena is a walk on and doesn't have an athletic scholarship. He pays his way - minus scholarships of course. As of now, they have all 13 athletic scholarships committed at this point.

Walk-ons aren't on scholarship.

Walk-ons aren't on scholarship.
Hence the term 'walk-on'.

The scholarship table specifically says that he is a "Walk on - not on scholarship."
my mistake. he was on the scholarship chart for this year because we didnt have a full roster. i didnt do the math to see if he was one of the 13 for next year
I believe Frozena was on scholarship just because we had one available going to waste. He won't get to keep the scholarship next year as there will be a legit recruit to take it.

Yeah, I see where you are coming from. The scholarship table has an error. Either Frozena is color-coded wrong, or the number below should be "1." (Unless there is some rule that I am not aware of.)
Also, while not wrong it is premature to have Otule labeled as a redshirt. He has not been granted the medical redshirt yet.

I dont think he was awarded an athletic scholarship for this year. He has been on academic scholarship from the start.
Buzz could adopt Frozen-A.
Frozena is on a ROTC scholarship, not an athletic one.

On the scholie count, after we didn't "fill" the extra in December, I cahnged the number to zero. I guess we still technically had one available, but since we had already used it for 2010, I moved the number to zero.
As for Otule, I waited a while to move him to the redshirt category. If it doesn't happen, it's easy to change, but it is the most likely scenario now.
