Thanks for putting up a profile much easier to know about and I think he will get an offer this weekend

Don't see us offering this kid when neither Purdue nor Indiana have yet.

Brebeuf is playing at the 1a or 2a small school level like Tiassum at Park Tudor. High academic catholic school with highest tuition of the catholic schools in indianapolis.

There has been a lot of discussion about him in a few threads and he could end up with an offer so I figured it was thread time. He reminds me of Dri Archer and I would love to see him in this class.

If he shows up and does well...he could be in for a offer. Kids is explosive as heck. Doesnt play the best competition, but his team lost to Barajas squad by 6.

I must be the weirdo, because I don't think the explosiveness makes up for the lack of RB size. He's no McKenzie, IMO.

Not a bad player but I wasn't blown away. If this is our only RB take in this class, I'd see that as a problem. I hope we are able to pull Soso or another top 15 RB.

Sounds like an offer would definitely shake things up. I personally like his tape and think he can be a difference maker. Hope to see an offer go his way.

Well once I heard Childish Gambino's Bonfire for his background music on Hudl, I was sold.

I think ND need a De'Anthony Thomas type of All-Purpose back (RB/WR). Since "Rocket" Ismail, when ND had a player like that? Maybe Golden Tate but i would like to see more explosiveness, versatility and breakaway speed from our players. Thats one thing i like of Meyer. First Harvin, then Rainey&Demps, now Dontre Wilson, Johnnie Dixon, Curtis Samuel. I think Kelly recruited Neal for that role but he failed to succeed. I'm not saying Bellamy is the answer but i like this type of player for this offense. I do not remember a player apart from Tate with world class speed (burst, acceleration, lateral speed, second gear..) is not easy to find tho.

Is he '15 or '16? The thread title says '15, but the article says '16.

This kid has speed, balance, and strength. He keeps his feet after contact and that is why he breaks (away) from so many tackles. The article puts him at 5'10" and 182, a bit bigger than previously reported.

Was his footwork better than other receivers and backs? If it was third or second back, slot, kick, or punt return, if the forty numbers are legit. I am good.

I miss something??

I agree we need a guy like that but I think BK can run an offense that is explosive without a guy that can explode from both spots if the play is right. I think we have the guys right now that can turn a 4 yard play into a 24 yard play, which is what I care about. However, would not be upset if we landed a 5 star top player like DT....

This guy is not that but I agree (?)

Measured in at 5'8.5" at Nike SPARQ. Which is a legitimate measurement, and not "listed" BS.

Is it Donald? Yeah that's who I'm talking about. Dude cracks me up.

By the way I am the worst at coincidental or misinformed information spreading, so don't mind me lol. I assume things or hear things and run with them at a fault.

I assume you pulled this from TP's site but I am wondering where they got it. Not that it matters as we are going after bigger backs. I was just bored this morning. At the Massillon NFSC this year they list differently (Massillon NFSC Results (H.S.):

RB Levante Bellamy, 5-10, 166, Indianapolis (Ind.) Berbeuf Jesuit
Results: 4.41 40, 4.21 SH, 35.5’ PB, 37.9” VJ, 111.27 SPARQ
Breakdown: Cincinnati and Toledo have each offered the speedy back who had 35 rushing touchdowns his junior season.
