What has happened to him the last few games? He played a ton when A-Rob was hurt. Now he isn't even on the 2 deeps? Is he hurt or what?

He was ineffective per Coach Rhoads.
Bo passed him and he didnt play much before ARobs injury.
He's moving to Linebacker:jimlad:
I heard the quote from Coach Rhoads that he was ineffective, but I'm curious what that means. He certainly will never be the home run threat that ARob is, but I've been pretty happy with his potential.
Really wish the Fullback was used more in today's football. He's a great fit for one.
Rhoads has talked about always wanting the running game to produce not just what the play is blocked for, but also to gain additional yards that move the chains. The additional yards can come from making defenders miss, the use of speed, or breaking tackles.Quote:

I would love to see that.Quote:

Not fast enough to play LB, but how about putting on an extra 25-30lbs to play DE?

One of the main reasons he came to ISU was because he was offered as a fullback pretty much everywhere else and we were going to give him a chance to carry the ball.Quote:

The game experience that he has gotten this year can be productive if he is willing to learn from it. The upcoming off-season is his opportunity to make the jump that many are able to do in their 2nd year of competition.Quote:

Schwartz will never be an explosive play back. He just doesn't have the skill set. I still think that he should be above Bo Williams, who can't even memorize the play book. Schwartz is valuable third and short back because he can move the pile, while A-rob seems to go down after any contact from the D-line.
