Have you seen PSU's depth on OL? It's nonexistent. Rumor has it that PSU was selling him real HARD on depth.

There's gotta be a little more to the decision though. While I wouldn't say ND's OT depth is "nonexistent" (as PSU's apparently is), it is definitely slim. With his size and talent he would likely see immediate time in a back-up roll at ND. Then with the graduation of Sam Young he would likely take over the RT spot as a sophomore. The tipping point (if I remember correctly) was the strong relationship he has with the OL coach at PSU. Unless the coaching change situation involves the OL coach, it seems unlikely that it alone would change his mind (I can't see any recruit lamenting the departure of a 90 year old coach that cannot relate to them anyway). However, I hope something does happen to change his mind because we need some big bookends to support all those large books we've get in the middle of the line.

so true. as the interior line seems to get better and better with everyday the tackle positions still seem a little slim.

From what I've seen, it would be very hard to believe he is re-considering his
commitment at this point.
