Scott's academic prowess is unquestioned and in fact, as a member of Syracuse's national honor society, he was invited to attend the 2009 University Presidential Inauguration Conference (UPIC). On the field, Scott has some room to grow, but after starting eight of twelve games in 2009 he has continued to gain valuable experience. He plays the game with some awareness and is a tick faster than he will time due to his football IQ. Over the course of his career, he has seen time at both cornerback and safety.
