Steve Paskorz tells Irish Eyes that he spoke with John Latina and he will be at the Blue and Gold Game this weekend.

One cancels, another confirms.

Our LB haul over the last several years has been suspect, at best. I look forward to reading about the performance of three of our recent recruits-Morrice Richardson, Steve Quinn and Scott Smith. Toryan Smith could be a diamond in the rough. I think Chris sees an opportunity to play and I think-if he chooses ND-he will see alot of the field as a freshman.

Here is what I've noticed so far about the LB ND has mentioned:

Nagel and Paskorz are almost the same kind of player. College safety sized, with great speed and sure fire finishers. They'll make fine outside backers.

Galippo, Colasanti, Jackson are wrecking machines. They hit. Hard. The more I see of Colasanti and the more I hear about him, the more I like him. I wasn't sold at first, but tape don't lie. There are character and intangible factors that make him a "fit" or a "program guy." But what he shares in common with these other two guys are that they finish with authority. Colasanti and Jackson seem to have more to prove in the eyes of the experts, however.

I like Smith and Richardson. I consider both to be four star kids and they will develop into mainstays for Notre Dame's defense. Richardson's ability to rush the passer could allow him to play DE at some point.

Quinn and Smith just need the reps and minutes.

I've updated the list above, included with incoming freshmen.

St.Kitts, you're right. SC is deepest at linebacker. So deep that their most experienced starter in 2005 Oscar Lua might not start in 2006. Rivers, Williams and Maualuga with Lua and Cushing rotating in and out is a fierce group. Dallas Sartz should be back as well.
