I don't think they would turn down any of those 5 LB's if scholarships are available. It's not going to happen anyway, but there is nothing wrong with having 8 stud LB's in a 3-4 Defensive scheme, even if they are all in the same recruiting class, and especially when you have little or no current depth at that position. Half of them would not play Freshman year, so ND would have arguably the best LB corp in the nation for the next 5 years. It's all a pipe dream anyway, I'm not even sure we get Filer to make it 4, the other 4 are all questionable in a lot of ways. I would like to see another offer go out, maybe to Jordan Futch, who is not quite on the level of these guys, but who with an offer, would give ND a better shot at Sabino, who might be better than all of the guys mentioned here, except obcourse for Arthur Brown.
