So i take it he got an offer then?

Not yet. Per II, he said ND still needs to get his full transcripts, but it seems to be a formality. Probably will get the green light when on campus if everything goes well.

Just to add to that, listening to PH right now, Christian said he was texting back and forth with him today and that is the same info he got. Another interesting tidbit is that he knows that Irish fans have mixed feelings about him...in other words, he reads message boards LOL.

But hey, at least you know he is into the Irish, long before we even visited him...

I've actually heard it might be more than a mere formality, but not sure if that is accurate. Definitely not confirmed. Hopefully they are wrong.

Hm interesting. I'm just quoting II. Hope it's not a big stretch.

if the staff offered him early everyone would love him. most fans feel that way because we evaluated and initially passed.at least imo

Told Loy that Elston said he would have an offer as soon as they reviewed his transcripts. Said he will not commit this weekend because he wants to take the visit to Miss State next week and then will decide after that. Not taking a 5th official.

More importantly, noted that he is friends with Vanderdoes and is a cat person.

We lie in wait for the day a recruit releases his top 10 schools on signing day

Asked Griffin if he just wasn't visiting this weekend or for good. He responded, "For good." Has Mississippi State OV scheduled for Jan. 31.

I'm starting to wonder if BK and BVG doing an in home with Pete Mokwuah first is showing a priority towards him that's making others take note. The only thing I can really come up with here. Griffin has been wanting an ND offer a year. Odd timing.

-should have waited to post, haha.

Of course, because it's Notre Dame where Murphy's Law applies to EVERYTHING, this smoke was correct. SMH.

Per Anna Hickey's tweet, seems like he is missing the foreign language requirement, and Griffin's attempted use of sign language to fill that requirement didn't fly with ND admissions.

Sigh.

I would've accepted sign language. That's a pretty unique language in and of itself.
