Hey ... Why was George Morales recruited and given a scholarship for 2008? Only a 2 star and a "long snapper" as his claim to fame. This is so strange and costly.Rocopana

Thanks for the question. Probably because of two reasons in our opinion.
First Morales was 4.0 student who loved Michigan.
Second reason was importance of long snapping. Long snappers are only noticed when they screw up.
Having superior one is worth their weight in gold.
Michigan had history of giving scholarships to former walk on long snappers. In this case, they were just being proactive.
The other thing with the new staff coming in they still gave him a scholarship, but it was for only one year, then wait, and see approach. He might be able to get a academic scholarship after that so he would be able to still get a free ride and a great education at Michigan.
Could be a win-win for both sides and at a position as pointed out earlier is only noticed when there is something wrong
