I agree with THegraNDscheme's evaluation of Motta. His highlight film on Rivals is outstanding. If we get this kid and miss on our first choices, ND will still be OK. My opinion of Motta is the same I had on Fox. He is a classic hard-nosed football player and would be a great addition.

Any idea on what his star rating is?

Motta was on Power Hour radio tonight.

At his HS, he played mostly FS and had alot of freedom in the 3-3-5 defense they played.

Says academics will be a big factor since he knows football will end sometime. For that reason, Stanford, ND and BC are a few schools that have his attention.

Plans on making visits in Sept and making his decision shortly thereafter. He hopes to graduate early and enter college as an early enrolee.

Of Florida, FSU and Miami, Florida rates the worst academically among the 3. FSU and especially Miami are actually very good schools academia wise but as we've seen over the years both University's have never enforced the standards of there athletes ditto for Michigan.

Zeke Motta returns from a five-day trip to find a towering pile of mail from college football recruiters.

Most of the letters are from Division I schools such as Florida, Notre Dame, Wake Forest, Clemson and Auburn.

The handwritten ones, Motta says, are extra special.

Anybody heard any news on the Motta front? Heard he was almost positive on visiting us awhile back, but nothing as of late.....think he is staying down south, his dad is an Auburn grad. I reall Like the kid, think he has big play potential.
