Who's the 4th? I have Butler, Mcgovern and Elmer.

And there are quite a few kids who we are in the top 3 or lead with that are attending. I like where this is heading.

You are correct. My detective skills were lacking after a 12 hour day at work today. Thanks my man.

I may be completely off base but I think there is only one more NFTC event left and I think that's the only way you can get an invite to The Opening - if you participate in those camps and impress...........

Stumbled across a web site that had film breakdowns of our current 2013 commits and posted all of them to this thread. Now posting to the individual recruits thread.

The analysis is done by Matt Alkire who worked for Scout for a number of years. Here is his bio for anyone who cares

Matt Alkire is also employed by Fox Sports where he works as a college and high school football recruiting analyst, mainly covering the Northeast portion of the country for Scout.com where he coordinates with players, coaches and administrators at the high school and collegiate levels. He is a regular for many ESPN radio affiliates for both the NFL Draft and high school recruiting, contributes on a regular basis to Fox publications and was also featured in former New England Patriot All-Pro Brent William’s book “Recruit My Son”. He has been doing extensive film study since the 2003 season for the NFL Draft. As a football player, Alkire played both defensive end and tight end and comes from a family with a rich coaching background.

247 $: Colin McGovern and Steven Elmer update from The Opening

Emcee77 · Jul 5, 2012

McGovern's weighing in at 284. No roommate at the Opening.

NDPhilly · Jul 5, 2012

That really sucks. I feel like having a roommate would be half the fun in the event.

BeauBenken · Jul 5, 2012

Is it cause he's so damn big?

NDdomer2 · Jul 5, 2012

On the plus side less time for someone to get in his ear.

Very Nice. Another giant man with great feet coming our way.

I think Colin plays Joliet Catholic and Ty Isaac in the playoffs this week.

shakedownthethunder · Nov 16, 2012

Colin and the LWW warriors did play Ty Isaac and Joliet Catholic and lost in OT. Most of you probably won't want to hear this as it pertains to Colin physically but probably will love it. Colin played through a slightly torn PCL last week. I saw the game and the dude played like an absolute manchild, couldn't even run off the field but was absolutely burying guys all game. I don't think he's our best OL coming in, but the kid has a ton of heart and loves the game. It was a privilege to see him play that game, painful though it was.

Thanks for the info and i love to hear about this kind of stuff. Kid sounds like a beast with tons of heart. Glad he is Irish.

Warrior mentality. Can't ever have too much of that on a team.

Sherm Sticky · Nov 16, 2012

Kid is an absolute stud. I truly believe he is the best OT we have coming in and definitely the best LT.

Idk. The staff LOVES Elmer, and I think he could be a bigger Z. Martin with his huge wingspan and great feet. It may be really early, but I see Elmer as the LT and McGovern as the RT down the line.

dublinirish · Nov 16, 2012

Elmer is a the definition of a man child. By the time hes a senior he will be so huge he will block out the sun.

aubeirish · Nov 16, 2012

All 5 of them are absolute beasts.

Yep. I think all are pretty equal and the ratings reflect that. It'll suck when they are our starting 5 and we lose them all in the same season.

Not if the proceeding classes are just as fruitful.

Yeah I don't know if he was joking or not, but BK will definitely red-shirt at least 3 of them, but allow 1 or 2 to play to break up the eligibility. My guess is Elmer and Montelus see spot duty next year while Bivin, McGovern and McGlinchey RS. Then hopefully we pull in a solid 3-4 man class this year and restore the #'s

Yeah it was tongue in cheek. It's just weird getting 5 solid linemen in the same year, all of whom I think can be solid starters for us in the near future. I'm not worried about recruiting offensive linemen. No matter who the coach at ND is we always seem to be sending them to the pros.

rtrn2glory · Nov 16, 2012

my guess is that we'll seen colin work in the interior...may need to restock the center situation. idk if he fits, but eitherway i see him as a guard at ND.

No way...Bivin and John can play inside, but McCogvern stays outside no matter what.

Right, most people seem to think that if one of the tackles moves inside it will be Bivin. At least that's what I remember reading in the spring/summer after those guys committed.
