Delusional Schoenhoft Eyes Transfer

Ever since Rob Schoenhoft's demotion from backup quarterback to scout team tight end, rumors of a possible transfer swirled. According to The News Journal out of Wilmington, Delaware those rumors are true as SchoenHop appears set to become a Blue Hen.

The story does not quote Schoenhoft but his former coach at Cincy St. Xavier, Steve Specht, seems to believe its all but a done deal:

"He's talked to a few other schools, but I think his heart is set on Delaware," Specht said. "I think as long as something totally out of the ordinary doesn't happen, he'll be at Delaware. I know from conversations I've had with the coach that they're excited about him.

Personally, I wish Schoenhoft well. The bottom line is he was never going to be the starting QB at OSU and the move to Delaware, of the FCS, means he won't have to sit out a year plus the level of competition is a little more realistic. Okay, that was a little jab but I couldn't resist after reading Robbie's version of his play this year:

"I thought I did really well (during the season), actually. I was prepared enough to take over for Todd if anything happened. … I think my level of play proved it, too, so whatever happens, happens."

Uh...whatever you say, Robbie.

Great photoshop...

So I was pretty excited after he announced at St. X that he was going to the Bucks, but at this point is he trying to jab the University by going to a "winged-style" helmet? If he is, he's a douche of gigantic proportions. Also Joe Schad says it's a go for "Robby" S.

Hey Terrelle, there's one less spot for you to hurdle over in Spring practice.

The best Schoenhoft played was in the Spring Game last year. Other than that, he wasn't very impressive at all.

Robbie made good reads. Robbie made terrible throws. If he was playing 3rd base, those throws would be OK. Sadly, one-hoppers don't count in Football.

#14 carries this photo around with him as proof he's on the team.

One reason for Schoenoft's transfer that people haven't talked much about is the Pryor factor. Perhaps he has been informed by the coaching staff that they are relatively certain Pryor is on the way to OSU and Robbie sees the writing on the wall.

JT had better run - not walk - and find himself a good quarterback, and in a hurry. Bauserman's okay to run a scout team, but can't play in a game, based on what I've seen in practice.

It's Bauserman, and he looks like a 12 year old in that picture...

A 12 year old who's alread made a good bit of money in the pirates organization.

I forgot about Delaware's winged helmets. Boy, that's got to make Robbie feel weird next year. Poor guy.

All he needs now is to wear that helmet and play Appalachian State in the playoffs. Wouldn't that be something?

Or play an SEC team in an OOC game and beat them!

First off, calling him a douche is just down right juvenile. He was not demoted, if you took the time to read why Tressel decided to place him on scout team. Also, did you watch the NC game, Henton was not even calling the plays because he STILL does not know them. I wish Robby the best of luck, Delaware has more NFL quarterbacks then OSU at this point. They have a history of developing great QB's, so good luck Robby!!!

I don't wish him any ill will at all. He's doing the only smart thing he can do for himself, at this point. I just thought it would be odd to wear winged helmets after spending a few years in Columbus.
