If he is the best then he might go somewhere. But generally speaking, not many schollys are given to fullbacks.

Mr. Goldsmith said Qoute. He hits the hole faster then any one he has ever coached at the full back position. And I would agree Coty always hit the hole wide open and at full speed.

Is he better than Morgan Cyrus was and does he play any other position?

I wont say hes better than Morgan Cyrus, but he definately hit the hole harder than Morgan ever did, and i do know Coty has Several Schollys just to let everyone know

He might be the best Goldsmith has coached but Chuke Williams had a couple darn good FB's in his coachin days at LC, Travis Hughes (correct me if I got his lastname wrong.) and didn't Corey McKenzie play FB too.

Charlie Vinson and Emory Thompson were pretty darn good too during Chuke's era.
Morgan, Charlie, Emory and Travis were a lot bigger. They pounded the ball with a lot of size and were more traditional as far as blocking/short yardage. Coty reminds me a lot of the way Eric Cantrell ran the ball. Shawn Cordle was like that too. They hit the hole head down 100 miles an hour and ran tough. I think of all the backs that have come through Coty is probably more like Eric than any of the fullbacks. Eric played TB a lot like Coty did this year and their running styles are a lot alike. Eric had a nasty stiff arm but other than that they run much the same way.
