Tough to believe that somebody would come into town, tell the staff he isn't coming, then spend the night.

Have to think ND is leading, or he really doesn't know yet and is conflicted.

I don't think his intent is to commit to any school this weekend. Anything can happen but I wouldn't bet on it.

But he's staying the night at OSU too.

Honestly, everyone needs to prepare for the worst and hope for the best. If we weren't in the race he wouldn't be visiting AGAIN, so obviously we've got a chance. But there are an awful lot of people convinced he is picking Ohio State.

I don't think he will either. But that wasn't my point.

I don't think he would be doing this if he plans to NOT attend ND. So I think his actions mean at worst, it really is a coin flip, or at best, he is an ND lean.

I thought he wasn't.

Oh well, if he's spending the night there too, then never mind about what I said. Haha!

I am trying to think of a prospect where we were in such a head to head battle with that if we lose him it would seriously feel like a punch to the gut.


This would be one of them

I'm with you. He seems like such a great fit for ND.

I am just over here drooling over the thought of Nyles Morgan, Justin Hilliard and Jaylon Smith playing LB.

Well for what it's worth, I honestly don't think he has his mind made up. Notre Dame may not be his choice as of now, bit I don't think it's NOT his choice either lol - A LOT TBD tonight IMO

Whether Justin picks ND or OSU, this is a recruitment that won't end until February IMO

Unless BK or Urbie Pants leaves/dies/gets fired, I think it will be over. He's done his due diligence. I don't get the Jashon Cornell flavor-of-the-month vibe from him.

It will be over he's visited each school 79 times. It's not like he's gonna go see something he hasn't seen before.

Disagree. Hilliard will shut it down. Guys like Cornell and Clark on the other hand....

Even if he shuts it down, that's fine with me. I'd be more than happy with landing Bilal, Coney, Masina, or Simmons instead

I assume that means they've already taken your advice and prepared for the worst. Still hoping for the best.

Hopefully Elijah and Brandon are working their recruiting magic.
