LB Andrew Sweat (official thread)

"I've been singing 'Hail to the Victors' all week," Dalton said.

"Hail to the Victors" is the University of Michigan fight song. Montour is led by senior Christian Wilson, a Michigan recruit and a physical, punishing presence.

Dalton's impromptu concerts are designed to tune-up the Big Ten-bound Sweat, an Ohio State recruit, and Yancich, a Penn State recruit.

"It's my first Ohio State-Michigan experience," Sweat said. "I'm excited to play against him."

WPIAL Class AAA: Montour moves into semifinals, beating Trinity 20-7
Saturday, November 10, 2007
From local dispatches
Christian Wilson reached the 100-yard rushing mark for the 10th time and Montour remained unbeaten with a 20-7 victory against Trinity in a WPIAL Class AAA quarterfinal at Canon-McMillan last night.
Wilson rushed for 191 yards on 22 carries and scored twice to help the Spartans (11-0) advance to the semifinals for the first time since 1995. Wilson has 1,725 yards on 254 carries for the season.
Montour, the No. 2 seed, will face No. 3-seeded Knoch in the semifinals next week at a site to be determined. Knoch earned its berth with a 28-7 win against Highlands.
Montour opened the scoring with 6:30 left in the first quarter. Wilson capped a 73-yard drive with a 15-yard run. The extra-point attempt failed.
Neither team scored in the second quarter, and Montour held its narrow 6-0 lead.

Great final game for Sweat: BG (free)


Andrew Sweat: It was a bittersweet ending to Sweat's career. His Trinity team lost to Montour by the score of 20-7, but Sweat was all over the field making plays. He recorded 20 tackles in the loss.

Great recap of Andrew's season by Adam Jardy...talks about Sabino coming on board and talks about where he projects at OSU.

I like Sweat at the Will (although i think he's gonna have problems breaking the depth chart.. he reminds me of Moeller alot in that he's more of an LB/S type, but that's just my opinion)..

I think Sabino can be good at either Mike, Sam, or DE

[wadc45]

I see Sabino in the middle...

I hate to blatantly disagree but I don't see Sweat playing the Will at any point...Moeller was 6-1 205 coming in and Sweat is more like 6-3 230 (roughly the same size as Sabino). Sabino and Sweat could end up being pretty interchangable depending on how they fill out. One probably ends up in the middle and one on the strong side.

I blatantly agree I see Sabino in the middle and Sweat on the strong side. Sweat is a pretty big kid who will fill out around 240-245 and Sabino ends up at 250 imo. I really like Sabino's ability to sift through traffic, take good routes to the ball carrier, and has ideal size for a MIKE.

Is Sweat really that big?? He looks small on tape

Back to Sabino...

By the way, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette came out with their "Fabulous 22" for the WPIAL and Sweat wasn't on it. But they have some 1-AA kids on the team. Somebody is out to lunch at that paper.

If Andrew's Superintendent approves, he will graduate in March and be in Columbus for spring ball.

I have seen both in person and Sabino is a big kid a legit 6'3 230. Sweat does not look remotely as big. He looks more like 6 feet and little over 200. I think the tape is correct and the websites are generous.

Couldn't disagree more, having stood next to him at the Pittsburgh combine. But it's not debatable, since the measurables wadc45 listed were taken that day.

You are pegging him at Steve Gardiner size.

Sweat's numbers are legit. They have been event verified by one of Scout/Rivals... I think Scout.
