'13 VA OLB Doug Randolph (Notre Dame Signed LOI)

[clashmore_mike]

We could move Spond to Will in 2014 to replace Fox. Jaylon could play DOG and Grace would play CAT. Boom problem solved.

Spond won't be around in 2014

Isn't he a RS Soph this year? Same year as Shembo but he redshirted. So he'd be a RS Sr in 2014

No offense...why would you move 3 guys positions? That makes zero sense. Grace is a Mike/Will. Jaylon has stated he was recruited to play CAT....after seeing him in the AA game, I cant disagree. I think he would succeed at DOG, but my guess is it probably depends on how the CAT position develops with the bodies we have there. Moving Spond inside would be done this year if at all, but with Councell moving inside, I really dont think they are taking their 2 deep at DOG and moving them inside.

Doug is a four star and ranked 134th overall by rivals.

As he bowed out of the All Galactic game, Devin Butler said he has some things home with school to concentrate on, is everything okay with Doug?

He tweeted this 2 hours ago, so all's well on the ND front. Not sure about personal life though.

Sweet

According to Sapp's updates from Kelly's presser, Kelly specifically mentioned that he loves Randolph's versatility when asked about position flexibility.

It will be interesting to see where he ends up. I like him as an OLB but we probably need him more at ILB.

 

[palinurus]

Just heard Randolph on Mike Frank's podcast. What a fantastic kid! Totally solid citizen, family kid, intelligent and well spoken. I will be surprised if this guy doesn't shine.

Sheesh. For all intents and purposes, Romeo could be a teenager still at the NFL draft.

and 1. Stay off my man's knee.

 

[woolybug25]

I want to know if he finished the dunk. Lol

 

[Emcee77]

Holy lord. What athleticism.

If I"m not mistaken, he's dunking on his old school in Richmond, too. He transferred from Collegiate (Russell Wilson's alma mater) to Woodberry at some point.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I want to know if he finished the dunk. Lol

He missed it, but still. Damn.

 

[woolybug25]

He missed it, but still. Damn.

2/10 should not have recruited

 

[Redbar]

Then let him shoot two, you can't headbutt my man's knee.

Total blocking foul. If he weren't an ND commit I'd call it a charge.

Is doug gunna lax?

Don't think so.

 

[STLDomer]

Sounds like they are gonna try him at ILB first

Interesting. I like it

 

[EuropeanDomer]

Would it not be better recruit a pure ILB? But i hope it works.
