'13 CA DT Eddie Vanderdoes (UCLA)

[Irish8248]

why would Orgeron be out at USC?

why would Orgeron be out at USC?

He's the current DL coach and the recruiting coordinator. Now that Monte Kiffin's out (his old boss), there's speculation that he'll bolt if he's not named the new DC.

HOLY LORD. He's a freaking bull.

And he can MOVE. He's lined up like an LB on some of those plays.

Do
Want.

... nobody try to tell me that we wouldn't accept a verbal from this guy... to think of some of the earlier comments about higher prospects... sheez! Eddie and AMuhammed! Come on down!!!

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

OH. MY. LORD.

Man child, simply amazing. Wow.

 

[Luckylucci]

Right, this kid is straight stud. At some point some were commenting on the holes in his game and I almost threw my phone. Of course he's not perfect, he's 18 at best. But as far along as a high school dlineman can be, he is.

without a question....
#1 on my Christmas list

 

[Ironman8]

#1 on my Christmas list

Same.

My would be, in order:

1. Eddie V
2. AQM
3. Redfield
4. Bryant
5. Hawkins (holding out hope)
5. Treadwell
6. Folston
7. Hollins
8. LaRue

 

[NDinTEXAS]

Even if we can't get him, for the love of God, please commit somewhere other than USC

Screw that if he doesn't go to ND then let him come on down to to play for one of our many teams in TEXAS (god knows UT could use some defensive help).

Let's hope that happens.

UT, Knoxville you mean

 

[woolybug25]

1. Redfield
2. AQM
3. Bryant
4. Treadwell
5. Larue
6. Eddie V
7. Folston


Just my opinion...

 

[Whiskeyjack]

1. Eddie V
2. Treadwell
3. Redfield
4. AQM
5. Bryant
6. Folston
7. Larue

AQM at 4th on your list!? Indefensible.

 

[woolybug25]

nvm

 

[NDPhilly]

AQM at 4th on your list!? Indefensible.

Vanderdoes = straight beast.

Treadwell = I'm a little concerned about our receivers. Treadwell would contribute right away. #1 WR in the country and would be huge recruiting win over other MW rivals

Redfield = Maybe the best FS in the country.

 

[greyhammer90]

AQM at 4th on your list!? Indefensible.

epic gif bro. I think people underrate AQM because he's been a lock for so long. Grass is always greener and all that

 

[Me2SouthBend]

AQM at 4th on your list!? Indefensible.

Don't look at Kuehnja's post.

 

[koonja]

I'd take Redfield over AQM. We have no elite safeties in this class or any class in recent memory. We have 2 elite LBs in this class alone.

Treadwell is MF coming out of high school.

Eddie V all day over AQM.

Where do you disagree with Philly and I?

 

[yankeeND]

Beat SEC, get em all!

 

[Irish YJ]

My list, based on a mix of need, talent, and just because I f'ing want them. Just my opinion and it's my Christmas list after all damn it.

1. Eddie V - Irish Chocolate gone soon, hopefully not too soon. EV is a straight up OL line wrecking beast.
2. Max R. - Stud, 4 years of studlieness. That is all.
3. AQM - loves the Irish. We love him, especially if he has been a silent all these years.. Mad skillz and flexibility.
4. Mack A. or Priest W. - Still hoping. Same as number 2. That is all.
5. Treadwell - Same as number 4. That is all.
6. Bryant or Ty
7. Isaac S - Love me another Hawaiian to carry on the tradition.
8. Folston - starting to doubt his love.... never could read this guy, but I like.

Elijah Shumate is an elite safety IMO.

Elijah Shumate is an elite safety IMO.

Could be, not yet. Currently #3 or 4 CB. Will likely move back next year and lay claim. I am a believer though. Look for ES to do the safety dance a few times in the endzone next year. Book it.

 

[koonja]

Elijah Shumate is an elite safety IMO.

Our cornerback? Regardless, that's one safety in recent history. We need 2 in the game at all times, not to mention reserves. I think Baratti will be a big player though.

So you're saying AQM>Redfield?

I'm going to guess Whiskey would line up something that starts like this:
1) Eddie
2) AQM
3) Max Red.

This is certainly how I would take them and I would then add in no specific order, Mack Alexander (albeit very unlikely) Bryant, Treadwell. After that, my guess is we are out of room.

 

[koonja]

Regardless of your opinions, what a great problem to have. This is awesome.

Remember what got this years team to the NCG. All about the D.
