Not trying to start anything here, but do you think the recent interest in defensive linemen like datone jones, nick perry, and kapron lewis moore, might be due to one of our linemen commits wavering? Charlie has said before, "If you're looking , we're looking." Again not trying to suggest or start anything it just seems weird since we already have 5 commits on the line. Thoughts?

No, I think Corwin Brown just wants another one. remember that he was still going after Sabino before he dropped ND, and K.Lewis-Moore commited to A&M shortly before his visit to ND was supposed to take place. I think they just saw a few opportunities to have a good shot at some great players and they're going for it.

There is no evidence that I'm aware of that suggests this is the case. Besides, I actually think that any of those players are more likely to play OLB than DL. At OLB, ND has a shortage of depth with regard to the right sort of athletes to play those positions. Asside from Neal and B. Smith, the faster more athletic guys at OLB are few and far between. IMO, this is merely an attempt to build quality depth.

Thats a very good point that you make. Scanning through the current roster, aside from the two you mentioned, its obvious that we need help in that area. Ryan & Richardson would be the other two... Another OL commit please!?!
