I see 2 good backs coming in, not lower tier

If you go to the rivals page - http://rivals100.rivals.com/ - there is a video of sam and u can see his highlights.

Very very very impressive and i really hope he comes to ND. he seems like an excellent receiver and is incredibly fast. i think he could add another dimension to our offense. He spoke specifically about his conversation with Weis as well.

Here is another article about Sam. I didn't realize he was planning on deciding before his senior season. At least if he doesn't pick us, we can move on quickly.

It's an amazing clip, and he puts up amazing numbers, but I'd love for him to bulk up by about 15-20 pounds. He'll be more durable and won't go down as easily as he does now.

I second that Flea, he needs to bulk up a tad and get stronger, but he's definitely my fav running back prospect or even receiver. Elite speed and quickness. I think he's going to be rated a 5 star by everyone IMO

I think he has 5-star potential, no doubt. But I just don't think he is there yet. We'll have to see how he holds up his senior year. But my concern would be that he could easily get injured, carrying the ball so many times, and being so light...in Texas.

But then again, he has done it just fine thus far, so maybe he is a lot tougher than I am giving him credit for.
