'14 NY DT Thomas Holley (Florida Verbal)

[Luckylucci]

has he ever been to ND? (summer visit, unofficial, camp etc?)
how about the family?

maybe he keeping us in play so he can watch us in the pinstripe bowl at yankee stadium?

i kid i kid

Yes, he visited this summer. Had a very good visit and at that time we were the perceived leader. A lot has changed since then but at the same time if we get him back to campus I think we have a shot.

 

[STLDomer]

OSU just offered #1 JUCO DT Terrell Clinkscales. Probably who they have moved on too after Holley

 

[Ironman8]

Holley was ejected from his semi-final game last night after being involved in a 'scuffle' with an opposing player in the 3rd quarter of a 55-7 blowout of Flushing. He may have to sit out the final now barring a successful appeal.

He should take a note out of Carlo's book and get his people to do the fighting for him.

I agree. It would reaffirm to him why he favored us earlier.

 

[Folsteam_Ahead]

Maybe we threw the Pitt game to make sure we end up at the Pinstripe Bowl so Holley won't have to travel far to see us play.


It's all part of a master plan to land a NT.

who's oversold on kelly now?

 

[GBdomer]

well he's not a freaking RKG anymore

 

[ulukinatme]

well he's not a freaking RKG anymore

This mean we're out of it? I don't understand the context and the sarcasm font is throwing me off

haha we are barley hanging out. I wouldn't be surprised if he visited for the Banquet. His family is in ND's corner it seems and respect they way they are recruiting Thomas. Penn State leads at the moment by a lot. We might be number 2 but we are a distant number 2.

 

[Calabrese's People]

LETS DO THIS !!

 

[PatsandBostonfan1975]

LETS DO THIS !!

Awesome!

 

[andre784]

If there was any bonus for playing in potentially the Pinstripe Bowl..we get a visit in with this guy for sure.

Steve spoke to his uncle ... ND has reached out about an in-home but nothing has been scheduled.

 

[Luckylucci]

Loy now saying that since they've been able to confirm that Diaco will be visiting Hayes and Trumbetti this week they are confident that Holley gets one on Thursday or Friday.

 

[Buster Bluth]

Coffee time.

 

[TheChosen1]

Enjoyed his visit to Florida.

Said that there is a great deal of opportunities at Penn State. Coach Johnson has been there forever and has put numerous guys into the NFL.

Said Notre Dame is another opportunity for me It's a great place with a ton of tradition. It's a place where you can't go wrong. It's possible they could get a visit. Going to sit down with his uncle and see how things are going but anything is possible.

Had a good visit to Ohio State Going to sit down and discuss pros and cons.

Might decide this month/might not.

In house visit from PSU Tuesday. Florida Saturday

He mentioned Ohio State? I thought they were out of it?

 

[GBdomer]

Ohio State is out of it. They wanted Holley to commit and he didn't want too

 

[IrishLax]

His uncle is the single biggest reason why PSU leads, and why ND is on the outside looking in. Darn shame.

 

[Pa Golden Tate Fan]

Per NY Post, Diaco visited Thomas today at Lincoln High.

Whoh....

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Per 24/7 we are out.

 

[Ironman8]

Apparently the Diaco visit did not make up the requisite ground. We are 'off the board' for Holley per BGI. Defensive scheme and campus feel were two reasons cited. If that's the case, I will gladly look elsewhere.

 

[johnnycando]

Gigantic bummer.

 

[koonja]

Sucks, but at least the staff knows. Lots of time now to focus their efforts elsewhere.

 

[#1rish]

Eh, had a feeling he wouldn't end up here early on. Best of luck to him.

 

[Cackalacky]

I think I might be one of the few that was not high on him at all. I honestly did not like his film or see the reasoning for his high status.

Go forth young man and do well. Best of luck
