That's a very good film right there. This dude's a straight up troublemaker. Great offer.

[ND Fan Vancouver]

Looks 32. Must have.

Right there with you. Can't believe that was sophomore film.

He does not have the built in response to "prepare for impact", he runs straight thru defenders.

I really hope he has some interest in the Irish because he is a punisher in the secondary and he's instinctive AF.

Woah...

A Loy CB for the good guys. I hope he's not Loy'ding us with this pick. Ajavon is right there with Bachmeier for favorite '19 film.

[arrowryan]

A Loy CB is the same thing as a Demetric Warren CB these days. Its the kiss of death

[NDCrusader]

Hopefully the staff sees the same thing in his full game films as I see in his highlights and they put him at the absolute top of the D board.

In regards to Loy. I wonder what his percentage for ND recruits is when you consider his first CB prior to any flips? Would be an interesting stat instead of his 75ish% overall which includes all teams/recruits and deducts his first CB's when he flips.

[Sherm Sticky]

Kid is reckless and takes no prisoners on defense. I like it.

By the time he gets to Notre Dame we are looking at a SS possibly a Rover?

I know CBs are supposed to be based on how things look "at this time" but I would prefer a system where you can't flip your prediction. At least there would be more thought put into when a CB gets picked and it would carry more weight.

Have you watched Owen Pappoe's film? Ajavon is right at the top too but Pappoe reminds me a lot of Jaylon so I have a soft spot.

I NEED to know what Jaylon would have looked like in a proper defensive scheme and utilized properly. Pappoe+Elko/Lea is as close as we're ever gonna get. Not that it's gonna happen. No idea where he's leaning at this point.

The Ajavon news is certainly welcomed tho. Kid's a baller and lays the lumber.

FS/SS of the future right here. Let's hope Elko/Lea can work magic with our defense and we continue to gain traction with kids like this.

Also with a CB to ND

So obviously positive ND vibes early on

He was wrapped up before he showed up.

All the CB's. One of my favorite '19 tapes from the gitgo. Can you imagine if they scored Ajavon and Williams in the same class. There would be some serious safety talent on the bench. Couldn't play them all. I like it!

Williams would be FS and Allen would be the SS

To much talent in the back end. Can't buy it for all my Vbucks, lol I take that back

[NDCrusader]

I think Williams can pull a Okudah and go from being the top safety prospect to one of the top CB prospects. If not JOK (if he doesn't end up at Rover), JGH, Allen, Ajavon, Williams & Moala. is a lot of talent and there's still Gilman coming in to go with a young current depth chart.

And if Griffith somehow ends up in SB, I'm not sure he stays small enough for CB all 3/4 years.

[Luckylucci]

Yea bringing in either one of these guys after Allen is a dramatic step up from what we've seen in recent cycles. Getting both seems like a dream. They say that usually the next cycle benefits the most from winning and changes to a program. Here to hoping Elko gets more believers this year.

Side note, since he's the S's coach. Similarly to Diaco wanting all the CAT's, Elko wants all the Stud's and Whip's, lol

MF interviewing teenagers is the most awkward thing ever.

It makes the Bob Chimel segments seem entertaining they are that bad.

[arrowryan]

He is an incredibly hard hitting safety. He's got strong safety written all over him. Reminds me of Tranquill with his physicality but just way more athletic. Would be nice to start the 2019 class with a borderline elite safety

Litchfield and Williams, a guy can dream can't he?

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

It would be so much fun to see what Elko could do with more top talent like this.

[NDCrusader]

Ajavon got his first CB today.

Wiltfong CB'd him to ND.

[zelezo vlk]

Man, Litch and Brian Williams would be a safety haul for the ages

[Luckylucci]

Yes, yes it would. After landing D. Allen, that would be epic. The combination of 18' and 19' classes could be pretty special for the defense. Some real difference makers, potentially.

[NDCrusader]

Paul Moala will have them all riding pine.

(I was gonna put that in italics but I think I'll let it ride.)
