At the beginning of the process, he was told he'd be either a tight end or blocking back. But at the signing they told him they were leaning more toward a blocking back. He was excited to play anywhere, and has WANTED to attend Georgetown from the beginning. He met his goal, and never believe it when someone says you can't get a full ride to Georgetown.....! (because you can!) hock:

Can't get a full athletic ride.
I also think Robert could have done wonders at Pikeville College, joining the best recruiting class in the mid south conference this year.
If you are going to play in the Mid South Conference, why not play at home and join a recruiting class that will battle G-Town in a year or two if not next year?

He got a FULL RIDE. Call 'em and ask.

So, you're saying you can't get a full ride to Georgetown, but how are all these area guys getting full rides to Pikeville College? Ask them, Josh already has it in writing that he gets a full ride to Pikeville if he signs with them. Robert DOES have a full ride, with his great academics, and ability on the football field, Georgetown worked up a package that is A FULL RIDE...

Chill Manchild.
NAIA schools don't have the scholarships available for athletic full rides. Typically when someone speaks of a "full ride" they are talking athletics. Just as Gtown has done with some of their players, Pikeville is doing the same thing, putting together academic money and financial aid together with a "partial" athletic scholarship.

As far as the best recruiting class in the Mid South, I have seen the players committed to several of the schools and Pikeville has FOUR legit D1 prospects(who had OFFERS from D1 programs) in Doug Howard, John Mark Stephens, Brad Marshall, and Nick Jamerson along with the Sullivans. What I have seen from Gtown doesn't match that at this time.
I generally don't make many statements without having good info to back it.
