I can confirm the info. Apparently CW tried to reach him on Sunday but was unable to and then offered officially on Monday. They're recruiting him as a Fullback and there's a good chance he'll take an official visit on the 18th.

Check Irisheyes front page. It's states that he got the ND offer.

This would be a great get at FB. This would instantly put our FB back in the passing game. He has great hands and only knows one way to run North and South.

Dan Hoch also decommited Nebrtaska today. I could tell you that Compton has been on the fence about decommiting for a while now. I know that he met with Pelini last week and somewhat solidified his commitment to Nebraska, but now I would expect this to put him over the top. He'll look at both situations and clearly see ND is where he needs to be. You could probably bet that Jonas "the recruiting specialist" Gray was in on this one as well. They are very good friends.

At first when I saw the headline I got concerned, thinking this meant that we had lost a linebacker recruit. But if he is being recruited as a fullback than this is great news. I think it's pretty obvious that this is our weakest position on the offense in terms of talent (as it is for most schools) and Will would be an excellent addition. Looks like we are getting the better half of the once-Nebraska recruiting class.

I don't see him staying at FB if he came to ND. Thats what he might be offered as but I believe he wants to be a LB and one way or another he IMO would end up there.
