You guys still have too much time.


(On your hands.)

It's there. He is just messing with people.

Oh, I see. Not sure why I didn't see it before. I agree, he's messing with us.

@JayHayesND

#NDnation sorry to let you down! #NotreDame #goldenarmy14. I just want to be honest & hope you will understand

Hahahaha classic.

 

[Luckylucci]

I have been convinced the whole time it was a joke but I'm on my phone now and when I started reading the post I couldn't see the bottom of the pick. Needless to say I almost threw my phone, and now the jokes on me.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Someone should tell Jay that recruiting is serious business, and that the hearts of adult CFB fans are not to be trifled with.

 

[greyhammer90]

I'm amazed. Or is it shocked? It's shocked. Shocked!

@JayHayesND

Hahahaha classic.

Who is the man, with his back facing the camera, standing to the left of Hayes? He has lost his legs, and his butt can't fill a pair of Levi's, and yet, those broad shoulders speak volumes about the possibilities of his progeny!

 

[Bogtrotter07]

You gotta love this guy!

Hayes Makes An April Fool Out Of ND Nation

Sums up the Facebook portion of the joke, Mama Hayes was in on it.

 

[Redbar]

I really think the sky is the limit for this young man and I'm not even talking football. Confidence, playfulness, personality and individuality in spades! He is going to be a lot of fun in the future. So glad he is all Irish.

 

[Kak7304]

I'm disappointed that Hayes won't be on the team the same time as Nix. They would make quite the duo on and off the field.

 

[STLDomer]

“@BraxstonCave52: fake committing/decommitting as a April Fools joke is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Won't be funny when they put the pads on in August”

Ouch

 

[rtrn2glory]

guess he doesn't have much of a sense of humor

 

[koonja]

I think Braxton is taking this a little too seriously. I didn't know seniors/graduates cared that much about recruiting, especially recruits outside of their position.

 

[tadman95]

Probably best left unsaid.

 

[CanadalovesND]

Was it a dumb thing for Hayes to do? Yea, maybe a little. Is it really a big deal? Not at all.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Cool that Braxton cares, a little harsh, but cool. Maybe we should turn Braxton on to some of the IE April fools jokesters.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

I'd bet the staff doesn't appreciate Braxton barking at current verbal commits, even if he's right. Wait until he's signed an LOI before you break out the tough love.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Maybe he could give you a hand in the meantime, Whiskey!

Especially us nuts on here.

Seriously.. But the hearts of coaches WILL be trifled with if they dare put their hands on Brax lol..

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Thanks for the videos fellas.

 

[KyfightingIrish36]

First time I've watched video of him. Looks like he really loves to hit.

Athletic A F

 

[Redbar]

He is very athletic, and you can tell how much he loves playing the game, he's always jumping around, fired up, reminds me of when I used to play. Not the very athletic part, the jumping around fired up part.

 

[Ironman8]

Athletic A F

Yeah I gotta say I knew he could move, but in these highlights he shows way more athleticism than I thought he had.

We have 2 huge ends that have elite athleticism for their size coming in from the Tri-state area next year, and I couldn't be happier about it.

 

[CanadalovesND]

Looks like a more aggressive Jarron Jones

 

[Luckylucci]

Really like his upside. He moves in space very well for a big guy.
