Irish out in front?



Apparently, Notre Dame made a lasting impression on Jamoris Slaughter.

The defensive back from Stone Mountain, Ga., visited the Irish program for the Blue-Gold Game in late April, a trip that's stuck with the 6-foot-1, 185-pound athlete. In fact, Slaughter said he's debating making a late-summer decision with Notre Dame moving up the charts.

"I would say they're out there in front for me right now," Slaughter said. "I know it's a school where most people really want to go but don't get a chance to go. They're very selective in how they pick their team. A big factor is the degree because you can get a job anywhere."

"It's a good pick overall."

It's almost like I paraphrased that info last week or something. LOL!

This is the way I've heard it:

The final 3 are Notre Dame, LSU, and Michigan.

Notre Dame is the leader right now - in part a tribute it being the only school of his top 3 that he has visited. His parents love the academics and graduation rates that ND offers their student athletes, so it looks like they are on board.

Michigan was the school he followed as a kid, though not to the same degree as Omar Hunter. He more or less explained it as, Michigan was the school he would use while playing on NCAA Football video games.

He is uncertain about being able to visit LSU and Michigan, due to monetary considerations.

Guys that have talked to Slaughter are coming back from their conversations with reports that Slaughter is saying a lot of things that look very good for ND's odds.

In other words, its looking like somebody will need to pull off a knock-him-off-his-feet kind of visit to pass ND on this one. And given the ND endorsement from his parents, it might be harder to do than simply wow the kid, if you follow.

GD3- Pretty optimistic assessment. Hope you're right. I'll be
