Football: Snow's Mitchell Offered by BYU, Others
By all accounts, BYU is getting a very good football player in Coleby Clawson, the speed rusher from Snow College that coach Bronco Mendenhall got a commitment from earlier this week.
I remember watching Clawson when he wrestled and played football for North Sanpete High and thinking to myself, "That kid is pretty quick for being so big."
While talking to Snow coach Steve Coburn the other night, the coach mentioned that his best offensive lineman, Andrew Mitchell, was also on the visit to Provo with Clawson.
While there, Mitchell received a scholarship offer from the Cougars, the 10th team to offer the big 6-foot-5, 300-pound tackle from Oklahoma.
Mitchell, who started at Dixie State College before going on an LDS Church mission to California, also has offers from Kansas, Kansas State, New Mexico, New Mexico State, Oklahoma State, Troy, North Carolina State, Central Florida and Arizona, Coburn said.
He wasn't really considering BYU, the coach said, but the visit "has opened his eyes a little bit to what BYU has to offer" and he was pleasantly surprised when Mendenhall offered.
Mitchell told scout.com that he has visits scheduled to Arizona, Arizona State, North Carolina State, Oklahoma and Kansas State, although he may switch the K-State trip for one to Central Florida.
He paid for his visit to BYU so that doesn't count against his five-trip allotment.
"I really can't say who the leader is," Mitchell said. "I wish I could tell you right now, but I really can't say until I see those schools on my visits."
We will have more on other Snow College players who are getting Division I offers in a subsequent post, as well as a look at some of the local prep players the Badgers are interested in.
