'14 AZ WR Mark Andrews (Oklahoma Verbal)

[dublinirish]

Sounds like we are still in the hunt. He had good things to say about ND ... but same was true of OU and TAMU. I guess we'll see what happens.


One side note: What role do people think a kid's high school team colors/uniforms/mascot seem to play in their college decision? Sometimes when I see kids like Dayne Crist (NDHS in Sherman Oaks, played high school football in uniforms identical to NDs) or Kizer (Central Catholic Fighthing Irish, fat shamrock on the helmet) I wonder if their strong interest in ND doesn't have something to do with a sort of subconscious impact left by wearing an ND uniform or playing for the "Fighting Irish" for four years.

Why do I bring this up here? Because Andrews went to Desert Mountain in AZ, and their uniforms look a bit like OU's or TAMU's ...

LeBron should have went to ND!

Forgive my Hiberno-English

Where i grew up it was quite common and normal to have "There does be.." in a sentence.

With an American wife and many friends/in laws of her same nationality I have to struggle to hold onto my Irishisms

Wow! I learned a lot from that. I book marked it. Because when you wade in to a new language, you don't necessarily get customs and usage. How is this?

Ní mór an náire seo go léir a bheith go bhfuil Béarla mar an dara teanga dóibh siúd a bhfuil cónaí orthu anseo go léir ar a saol!

Did I get that right?

yeah dude i have a buddy who studied Linguistics and Irish so she can explain the dialect way better than I can but basically its English spoken in the composition of the Irish Language, I'll PM you with more info and stuff.

haha you are saying its a great shame English is spoken as the 1st language as the 2nd language is totally better?

Apologies for going off topic rest of you lads.

Funny how things can change so quickly, I seriously thought Allen & Andrews would be a part of this class. Now Allen is an Aggie and we haven't heard anything about Andrews in a while as we are likely third behind A&M and OU

 

[dublinirish]

can easily seem him popping for A&M if they have room for him

Yeah, a&m ALWAYS has room.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Yeah, a&m ALWAYS has room.

Damn, wanted this kid, big fan of wideouts with serious stature.

 

[Irishnuke]

I thought we faded with him because of aTm. Seems like we could have beaten Oklahoma for him. Oh well.

 

[NDWorld247]

The height of each of Oklahoma's WR commits: 6'5" (Todd), 6'5.5" (Mead) and 6'6" (Andrews). They also have a 6'6" TE commit.

They are probably all really around 6'4", but that's some serious height for the Sooners.

 

[NDdomer2]

they look better in dresses when they are tall
