[NCND]

Really like the way 2014 is trending

Agreed. Lots of good news recently.

 

[NDohio]

YES - Congrats Morgan family.

 

[jimmymac]

Coach D on ISD's comments on Nyles:

Morgan is a huge, huge pickup for ND. Landing Morgan and Sykes to go with Michael Deeb puts the ILB position in great shape moving forward. All three of those kids can flat out play! Morgan has the upside to be a star. He'll need some work, as all incoming freshmen do, but he's got a lot of ability. Great pickup for ND.

 

[TheChosen1]

Per 24/7, he committed to BK personally before even getting to San Antonio for the Army All-American practices.

So you're saying Kelly knew for days

 

[dublinirish]

like others have said the 2014 class is done so just bring on the Heggie's/RKG's that are left!

 

[FearTheBeard]

Awesome class so far, if we just hold the class together we should have some good depth across the board minus maybe nose tackle. Excited for the future of the Irish!

Mid-season highlights. Agile, hostile, mobile:

That last highlight though

2:55 mark on the video. I almost called this one out earlier. Sticks the dude.

 

[gkIrish]

Very happy. My favorite defensive recruit in our class.

 

[The Polish Irishman]

Amazing how well we recruited front 7 this year. Huge pickup. Great news.

 

[OCIrish]

Really excited about this young man, and his joining this class!!!

 

[Emcee77]

Huge, huge get. Welcome Nyles! Glad it's official.

 

[IrishFaninTX]

never been so happy to see Notre Dame Verbal in a recruit's profile heading

He's one of the best for sure. Last year I was pumped when Jaylon committed but that wasn't a huge surprise. I was even more pumped for Redfield and Vanderdoes. ND has gotten commitments from some really good players recently.

 

[irish o'phile]

So, with the commitment of Morgan and Sykes can we assume that ND is good to go with Core 6 and will be better able to recruit Chicago going forward? It seems like these commitments might have very positive long term ramifications.

If not then the only thing left is to put them all on staff and start paying them. In all seriousness this should put a huge hole in the wall they built up against us. Chicago should be fertile grounds again.

I don't follow recruiting very closely but a fair number of you used to say we had no shot at Morgan. Uh, I guess Brian Kelly can recruit. Just based on watching the Army ALL American game, Nyles Morgan looks like the real deal reguardless of how many recruiting stars. Super athletic looking for a ILB. Excited as a fan to have him!

 

[TheChosen1]

Im working and missed the game announcement. Reps to anyone who can post the video!

[EuropeanDomer]

The last couple of LBs from Chicago area were Fleming and Filer in 2008. Excited for Morgan and Skyes, if they can have the impact of Fleming and Filer, they will have a good career on and off the field.

 

[SaltyND24]

Best believe I'm taking a couple shots tonight for this commitment...Welcome aboard Nyles and family!

 

[rtrn2glory]

i'm personally hoping for a better impact than Fleming and Filer.

Fleming was good, but Filer was a bit of bust

 

[GoldenToTheGrave]

I love that we now have some depth AND star power at the ILB position. Nothing like getting an impact player at arguably our biggest position of need.

 

[Jackalope1977]

I'm late to the party but you guys have covered it pretty well. I'm very excited about this one. Welcome Nyles!

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

So sweet

 

[yankeeND]

Kelly is a boss! Great job getting a huge need! Awesome!
