'13 PA WR Will Fuller (Notre Dame Signed LOI)

[NDPhilly]

I saw his team (Roman Catholic) play Cardinal O'Hara in person. He absolutely dominated Thaddius Smith, a high 3 star corner who is going to Boston College. He burned him for around 200yds and 2 TDs as well as 1 pick on defense.

 

[NDdomer2]

excited to hear summer camp updates on this kids!

 

[dwshade]

IMO will be the best receiver of his class.

Agreed. Star potential. Great route runner, great hands.

 

[Luckylucci]

I would agree he may have the best upside but I think C Rob has the best chance the get on the field first. He may be playing red zone packages early in the season. Fuller could do some work on special teams but until he adds weight I don't think he's playing WR.

 

[NDdomer2]

when tj graduates it will be a seamless transition to Fuller.

Would not mind that one bit.

If Fuller really weighs 201, he is going to be an absolute stud. I still think Robinson is the best in the group, but Fuller has a chance to be a star if he can put on a coat of armor and maintain speed.

Not bad when the MVP of the Opening and a kid as athletic and determined as JO are your other two. This could be a much better WR class than we expected.

 

[Luckylucci]

It seems hard to believe since he is shorter than Brown and seemed just as skinny coming out of HS but if true I agree that he could get some very early PT at that weight.

Where are you seeing that? Dan Murphy listed him at 175lbs in the "weight gains" thread on BGI.

 

[Luckylucci]

No one has him at 201, not sure where he is looking but not one site has that listed. Too bad I got excited for a second, turns out its not even close.

 

[STLDomer]

Mike Frank has him at 201. He also misspelled about 75% of the guys names so maybe messed up that one. Another interesting one he listed is Montelus at 340, anyone know if any other site ha that or another weight for him? That's second to Nix on the entire team

 

[Domina Nostra]

Sorry, I didn't realize that was a site-specific number. I was hoping that meant he got up to around 190, but 175 sounds much, much closer to reality. He's a skinny kid.

 

[Luckylucci]

II has Montelus at 340. He probably hasn't been able to workout as much as usual because of his shoulder, just a thought. Fuller BGI 175, II 171, and Mike Frank 201. How could three sites have three different numbers don't they all get the same numbers, haha.

Lol how is that possible? Guys trying to type to fast?

 

[dwshade]

tj noted Montelus at 340 has the look of a NT. Hint or not? Not sure.

That experiment did not work out with Chris Stewart, but it's worth a try.

Generally it seems like the speed and burst for DL is just different.

 

[STLDomer]

If he was a NG he'd be listed as a DT and working out with the D instead of being listed as a OL and working out with the O. He's just overweight because he's injured as Lucci said

TJ was taking the shoulder injury into consideration. Montellus was always projected to be a big kid. No one is calling him a NT now so where he is lsited now is irrelevant. If a position change were to occur it wouldn't happen until the spring and that would depend on how this recruiting cycle finishes up.

Good game by the freshmen receivers. Robinson and Fuller both looked the part out there. Good sign for the future.

Purdue has burned us for decades with tiny receivers (and DBs) nobody else wanted. It often is the size of the heart and not the body that is important..

Wish I could rep Mr. Fuller. What a fine statement, and lo and behold, a great use of Twitter!

 

[Ndaccountant]

He reminded me of Golden Tate with his catch against MSU.

It's OK, you'll get the hang of things around here eventually...

I agree with the sarcasm. This kid's profile basically said this: super fast, super-coordinated, great skills, excellent hands, thin as a rail.

Not all kids put on good weight easily, no matter who is in charge. Get used to Will being skinny.
