Just get the kid on campus, and you never know what'll happen ...

I agree John, lets get the kid on campus and see what happens.

Damn right. Especially since it looks like he's coming for the SC game, per IUB.

Should be a great game to come for, IMO. I think we'll impress some people this year with what we put on the field.


Go Irish!!!!

From Scout's Recruiting Week in Review:

Notre Dame is also looking south to fill another one of the few remaining slots in the recruiting class of 2008. Kenneth Page, OG, 6-4, 290, A.C. Flora High School, Columbia, SC recently narrowed his list of suitors to ten and the Irish made the cut. In fact, Page has already scheduled his official visit to South Bend for the USC game on the weekend of 20 October.

“I’m very, very excited,” said Page of his plans to visit Notre Dame.

Undoubtedly, Notre Dame is excited to get an official visit. Scout.com ranks Page as a four-star prospect and the eleventh best guard in the nation. That weekend also precedes a bye week, so the coaching staff will have even more time to devote to the highly rated Page.

The Irish coaching staff stays in close contact with both Page and his head coach, Robin Bacon. Bill Lewis and Page talk about every other week, Weis sends periodic e-mails to him and Lewis and offensive line coach John Latina check in with Bacon once a week.

“Just a bunch of small talk,” Page said of his conversations with the Irish coaching staff. “They’re just checking up on me and my family, and still letting me know that they’re interested in me.”

Page will play mostly tackle this season, though he will see some time at guard. Like most top-rated high school recruits, he will also play on the other side of the ball as well. Page believes he has improved as a player during the offseason.

“I’m bigger, stronger and faster, and more aware of what’s going on,” said Page. Notre Dame will face stiff competition in earning Page’s signature. He is also considering Alabama, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida, Stanford, South Carolina, Tennessee, North Carolina and Maryland.

i think we have a real good shot to get this guy... him and Trevor Robinson would be an awesome gets, and add to that CT or williams, best class since Jerome Bettis' class.

I think ND will only take one more OL, don't forget ND wants/needs another WR or 2 as well.

yeah your right, dumb mistake by me... but i think that just getting michael floyd would be sufficient for WR, putting us right at 23... i still kinda hope we would take both Page and Robinson, but i will trust weis and companys discretion. i just think that any great championship team is anchored by a great offensive and defensive line. the defensive line i think is definately covered for this year, but i wouldnt mind getting two more OL recruits. not that we definately need them, but i like the idea of great competition between great players... again just my opinion, and i will take weis's decision no matter what.
