Switzer-land in the summer

Posted Aug 21, 2012
By the time the 2012 season is completed, George Washington tailback Ryan Switzer should have a pretty good tan going. Because the spotlight will doubtlessly be affixed to his every move. As a junior, Switzer won the Kennedy Award last year as the top player in West Virginia, running for 2,796 yards and scoring 45 touchdowns. The speedy Switzer, who passed up his junior year of track and will forego his senior season of basketball in order to concentrate on football, has already decided to accept a scholarship offer from North Carolina.
