QB Rob Schoenhoft (official thread)

TyW is pretty stingy with his offers. Didn't they wait forever to offer Brohm last year too? He usually wants EVERY prospect he offers to come to camp first.

edit: BuckeyeJeff, I found this quote as well from a couple days ago:

Schoenhoft confirmed what Sharpley had mentioned to Irish Eyes earlier. "They told us it was down to Evan, Jason and I," Shoenhoft said. "They will let us know within a week or so."

Evan being Evan Sharpley, and Jason being Jason Forcier. It seems that ND has pulled themselves out of the Mark Sanchez race, or probably the other way around.

Personally, I'd rather see ND get Schoenhoft so that we can possibly get Forcier. I like his running ability and I think he's a bit more of a pure QB than just a rocket-arm.

I have no direct quote here clevebuck,but I did read on this site somewhere that Sanchez has now been offered by ND and they have moved 'towards the top' of his leaders. Nothing confirmed certainly and I hope its Evan, Jason and Rob as you mentioned. I see ND as a major player for every QB we're after. Ultimately, the prize here seems to be Sanchez, but Schoenhoft is sounding more and more like a stud instead of an alternative. What are your thoughts?

It is so hard for me to decide between the two, me being an amateur at best, at this stuff. On one hand you have a proven quarterback, who is a great kid from a great school with a great coach and a great system. On the other hand you have another great kid in another great system with another great coach. However, this kid is a bit of an unproven commodity, though his ceiling for potential could be potentially unlimited. Do you take the safer bet (Sanchez), or do you risk taking a crap shoot on the one who could give you the most down the road? The safest bet I know would be to just get them both, but what are the odds? Does or should the fact that Schoenhoft is from Ohio make a difference? Does the fact that he is from Cincinnati, a place we definitely need to open our recruiting up in, make a difference?

The fact that schoenhoft COULDN'T OR WOULDN'T help his receivers look better than their talent makes me suspicious of his leadership abilities. The arm seems to have no question marks, but his game time knowledge and judgement are definitely in question. IMO I don't see sanchez as the "safe" pick, he's the most technically sound qb and isn't reliant on just winging it in there.

If you believe this then exactly why isn't he the safe bet in your mind? Not flaming, just want you to go further with your explanation.

Will Schoenhoft Camp at Florida?
By Don Hoekwater Columnist/Photographer
Date: Jul 7, 2004

Quarterback Robbie Schoenhoft from St. Xavier high school in Cincinnati returned from the Michigan camp with the Wolverines squarely in the lead. All that was left were visits to Notre Dame and Florida. He made it to South Bend alright. GoBlueWolverine Magazine spoke with Schoenhoft's mom Tuesday evening regarding the Florida trip.

"I'm not so sure he's going to Florida this weekend," Rob Schoenhoft's mom said. "He's hardly ever here, you know teenagers, so we need to talk to find out whether or not he's going.

The 6 foot 6, 235-pound Schoenhoft is still planning on making his announcement at the Elite 11 camp at the end of this month. Last time GBW spoke with him he had Michigan "way up there" on his list. The visits to Notre Dame and Florida camps it seemed the only obsticals to a Wolverine pledge. The trip to South Bend didn't turn out as he expected. "If they offered, they'd be up at the top and make things more complicated," Schoenhoft told IrishEyes. "I'm kind of tired of waiting. That has kind of turned me off them a little bit."

Besides Notre Dame and Michigan, Schoenhoft also lists Michigan State and Ohio State as favorites. He is getting pressure from the home folks as he told Bucknuts.com, “Ohio State has to have the biggest fan base in the nation,” he said. “I was at work today and a guy came up and said, `You’re Rob Schoenhoft? Hey, you shouldr go to Ohio State. It’s a neat place.’ ”

I'm not sure how he could of made his receivers look better other than running down the field and catching his own passes. St. X's receivers last year were young, not very good, and not up to GCL standards. In fact Schoenhoft was moved to tight end for his blocking in the run game.
