There are different circumstances with "academics". Some kids need test scores, some need courses, some need gpas up, some need all. I dont think its fair to the kid to speculate on what those are, unless he has been forthcoming like McKenzie. ND has been cautious after the Tee Shepard situation and doing their research but still you are going to have kids that the staff is split on. 1 coach may think its a cant miss kid, while another thinks its reach. Then add in if the kid does need to do something in the classroom, it def complicates things, but thats the nature of recruiting.
And believe it or not...there are kids that will get into ND that dont meet the criteria needed for most of the other class. Kelly has done a decent job at getting those kids in, and turning to kid into a "RKG" on and off the field. Obviously, not all of them have turned out, but thats the risk you take at ND. I think Quick is a kid that will be take unless there is just something glaring and that would have been addressed already.
