Nothing new, only bolstered by word that Blanton is visiting ND on June 18, which confirmed a lot of what the eman had to say. The 6/18 visit is supposedly for Blanton to make sure that he is fully comfortable with ND, and if so, a lot of people expect Blanton to commit on that visit. I don't think there is as much confidence as there was with Brandon Newman that Blanton will commit on his visit, but I would have to say it's pretty close.

Let me put it this way, if you look at post#66 of this thread that I posted on May 8, where I went out on a limb, for me at least, and said that Newman looked almost like a sure thing, I am pretty confident about Blanton, but not confident enough to put a similar post to that one in the Blanton thread.

Great news, Welcome and congrats Brandon. Let's keep this recruiting train going.

Oh and BTW, I also knew when I was posting about Brandon being almost a sure thing on May 8 that I would have the opportunity to say a little prayer at the Grotto hoping that I was right, which I did. I will not have the opportunity to do the same before June 18, unless someone wants to help pay for a return visit to the Grotto. Any takers?

Any word on Forst and Goebel?I believe they are also visiting this weekend.Congrats to Newman!

I got a good feeling about Goebel (no relation to the ex-nazi). While in seemingly no hurry to commit, if he does want to come here, he probably needs to do so fairly soon.
