Quick question, if Brown surprisingly commits at the opening, would he take Holmes spot, or would ND take a WR class of Brent, Brown, Holmes, and McKenzie? I would be satisfied with that WR group, but I hope we leave a spot for Quick, feel like he would be great in the slot.

If anyone spot is taken, it would probably be McKenzie

Is Brown suppose to be a slot guy? If so that would make sense, but I thought he was more of a Brent/Holmes build. I feel like we need a slot guy this class, and obviously there is a lot of time till signing day, but if we don't take Mckenzie's commitment, and don't get quick, I feel like we would not get anyone at all.


Just looked at quick's height on rivals, which says he is 6'0" and this profile for brown says 6'1" so maybe brown is more similar to a quick build.

We picked up 1 maybe 2 slot receivers in last years class so I don't think slot is that big of a need

Committed to UW

Luginbill: how much did the new facilities play in your decision?
Brown: Very little

This isn't over. The day before he committed he said that you have to go to ND before you make your decision. Visiting for the USC game

Depends upon when we get our receivers. He might not have a spot left.

Tough to think that would happen. Last week Christian on ISD said that the staff would take up to 5 in this class. Quick is a take at any point and IIRC he isn't planning on announcing until Feb. For him to be squeezed out I think that would require McKenzie, Holmes, and another WR to commit before he wanted to. I don't really see that happening but I guess anything is possible.

Lazard? I know he's "97 percent" to Iowa State, but he's planning to OV, right?

There will be a lot of Cali kids there: Juju, Damien Mama (still?), Tyler Luatua, Michiah Quick, and now Erik Brown. Also, McKenzie Alexander too.

Tigers have the weekend off? I'm guessing you mean Isaiah McKenzie, the WR out of FL, not Mackensie Alexander, the 2013 CB who signed with Clemson.

The list isn't real encouraging, but keep in mind we miss out on about 85% of the recruits we "offer" and about 65% of recruits that take an official visit. Nobody posts a respectable batting average when it comes to recruiting.

Ya, wow, was thinking McKenzie and his name was the one that popped into my head. Freudian slip. Thanks, roo.

As of right now there may not be room for Erik, its going to depend on how things shake out with McKenzie, Quick, Smith, Watkins, and Hendrix.

Thanks for all the updates this morning. Lucky doin' work.
