'15 OR RB Cameron Scarlett (Stanford Verbal)

[ryno 24]

Oh I agree with you but we already took Adams so that leaves me wanting Jamabo and possibly Brossette

I'd take them both along with Adams, since Adams could play in the slot.

Scout: looking to visit for the Michigan game

 

[PANDFAN]

Notre Dame landed Warrington (Pa.) Central Bucks South four-star running back Josh Adams on June 30, but the Irish are looking to land a second back from the class of 2015.

Portland (Ore.) Central Catholic three-star running back Cameron Scarlett could be that guy. The 6-1, 210-pound recruit has set up his official visit to Notre Dame. He will be on campus for the Oct. 11 game against North Carolina.

Scarlett recently named a top five of Notre Dame, Stanford, Oregon, UCLA and Washington. The talented back discussed why the Irish made the cut.

“The football team is always on the top," said Scarlett of the Irish. "They are always in the hunt for a BCS title and the tradition is so deep and incredible. The academics are truly incredible there and that’s a big factor for me. It doesn’t get much better than Notre Dame.

During his junior season, Scarlett had 2,900 all-purpose yards and scored 33 touchdowns.

Per the 247Sports Composite Rankings, Scarlett is the No. 30 overall athlete in the country and the No. 1 prospect in Oregon.

Three-Star RB Sets Notre Dame Official Visit

2900 all purpose yards, 33 TDs. Toughest competitive level in Oregon. Good school.
I'd take him. Especially if we don't get Jamabo.

 

[Big23Head]

Scout: All OVs locked in. Washington (9/20), UCLA (10/4), ND (10/11), Stanford (11/15) and Oregon (11/22).

[ProdiGOL5ON]

Just watched his tape. Seems like he has good vision, acceleration, speed, and can actually catch ball. However, looks like his footwork could use work, he seemed to get away from some tackles but idk much about the competition level he plays at. Seemed more like defensive mistakes more than RB jukes. His cuts seemed weak and slow. Would still want, but looks more like a redshirt. Does anyone know about his football conference program?

 

[Big23Head]

Yesterday Biggins said Scarlett may be the best RB in his region. He watched him this past weekend and was very impressed with his game.

Cameron Scarlett has pushed back his UCLA visit until sometime during the basketball season. The four-star all-purpose back from Portland (Ore.) Central Catholic was supposed to visit this past weekend when the Bruins were upset by Utah. Scarlett has already visited Washington and he also plans to visit Notre Dame this weekend and then Stanford and Oregon (dates to be determined). During a recent game in Southern California for Scarlett, Stanford coach David Shaw was spotted on the sidelines and it's believed the Cardinal could be tough to beat in his recruitment. -- Gorney

Scout: Scarlett has 'strong liking' for Notre Dame

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Gotta believe the staff would hold off on accepting a commitment from him now if he were to offer it. Agree? With Josh A. on board and a couple of other highly regarded guys out there can't imagine he's a take right now.

Watching those highlights in the Scout link show that this kid is a fluid athlete. He's going to be a great get for someone.

 

[DomeX2 eNVy]

I wouldn't mind if the staff over-took on RBs and then converted one or two to bad ass LBs ala Frank Stams. KRussell showed the staff can take talent and find a spot to make them shine.

Agreed. I would like to see three elite running backs and move one ala K Russell if applicable.

What about recruiting linebackers to play linebacker and running backs to play running back? JMO

Many thought that was the plan with Elijah Hood... Guess we'll never know. But I can tell you that he was sick at LB in HS, so if that was the staff's plan, props to them.

Freebie from ISD posted today
ISD Update

Cameron Scarlett, RB, 6-2, 215, Central Catholic High School, Portland, OR has wanted to see Notre Dame for a long time and he finally got his opportunity last weekend when the Irish played North Carolina. The trip lived up to the four-star running back’s expectations.

“Everything went great,” Scarlett said. “We got there Friday and got to go through the walk-through practice and met with the coaches after. We went out to dinner and had a really nice dinner at a Japanese place. I talked with the coaches there too and then went back and hung out with a couple of the players. I got to see what it was like to be a freshman, got to see the dorms.”

Scarlett felt very comfortable with the players on the team.

“They are all really cool, from the freshman guys that I met to the older guys,” he shared. “I feel like I could definitely see myself fitting in and make some cool friends. They all seem super friendly and are super nice guys.”

Scarlett had especially looked forward to seeing the Notre Dame campus. He wasn’t disappointed.

“The campus is really nice,” he said. “I knew it was going to be, but it’s something I really had to see for myself. Everything looked beautiful out here.”

Scarlett was already familiar with several members of the Irish staff from when his brother Brennan was recruited by them. The opportunity to visit with them, though, last weekend, gave him even more insight into the Notre Dame coaches.

“They’re all really nice,” he said. “It seems like they really care about their players.”

After breakfast on Saturday morning, Scarlett spent time with the team prior to the game.

“I met with the coaches before the game, had a meeting with the sports and academic people,” he explained. “I got to hear how they help students and what they do. Then we went to the game, watched the game, got to see what the Notre Dame atmosphere is like; it’s second to none.”

Scarlett also got a chance to watch an Irish offense that rang up fifty points on the Tar Heels. Predictably, he focused on the running backs.

“Their offense is clicking,” he observed. “It took them a little bit to get going, but once they got going there was no stopping them. I like the way they use their backs; they like to hand it off to them, they like to throw it to them, set up a lot of screens for them. I like catching the ball out of the backfield and I could see myself fitting in.”

Scarlett has already visited Washington and has trips planned to UCLA and Stanford. The Notre Dame visit set the bar high for any future visits.

“I really feel good about Notre Dame,” he offered. “It’s definitely a good place I could go. It’s different than a lot of other schools. It’s special.”

Cameron Scarlett, Central Catholic four-star running back, confirms torn ACL, sets college decision date

This week Central Catholic senior running back Cameron Scarlett finally received word on the extent of the right knee injury he suffered in a 42-7 victory over West Linn in the 6A state quarterfinals.

Immediately following the injury, the 6-foot-1, 200-pound back was told it was likely a torn ACL, which doctors confirmed after tests last week.

"It's torn," he said. "I'm going to be out until the start of summer, but hopefully I can rehab it up and be ready for camp this summer."

The Rivals four-star prospect is scheduled for surgery December 17th.

"It just sucks. I just hate talking to coaches, and just people about me being hurt," he said.

Scarlett called coaches from his final four schools – Notre Dame, Stanford, UCLA and Washington – to deliver the news. All four said they would still actively recruit the Rivals top 100 prospect.

"I wasn't really that nervous," he said. "If they end up saying, 'no,' then it's just going to make the process easier for me. I don't want to go to a school where that's part of their program – taking scholarships away through injuries."

Despite the injury, Scarlett is moving forward with his recruitment and has set his decision date. He will be making his college selection December 15 at "around 11 a.m."

Although he doesn't have a favorite, he provided a preview of each school – in no particular order.

"Washington is just such a great program," he said. "They are really headed in the right direction with Coach Pete. Notre Dame is same way, such a great program. They've been struggling recently, but that's not an indication of how they've been the last six years. Stanford, their academics are hard to say no to. Their coaching staff shows me the most love, by far. And they like to run the ball, which is big for me. Then UCLA, I love the L.A. area. It's just such a nice place. I had a great time on my visit. Coaches don't reach out to me as much, but when they do it's all love."

Scarlett has said all four colleges see him as a featured back, however his career as a high school ball-carrier is officially over.

Stanford and Washington I think are the only schools even actively recruiting him. And I'm not so sure about Washington.

Stanford and Washington I think are the only schools even actively recruiting him. And I'm not so sure about Washington.

I know Washington is after Chico McClatcher and Austin Joyner, both WA kids. Technically one is more RB/Slot and the other is RB/DB. Definitely seems all Stanford.

 

[Ironman8]

Committed to Stanford.

 

[dublinirish]

Committed to Stanford.

hope he can get healthy and have a decent career.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

This kid will be good. Good p/u for the Tree.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Good I'm happy for this kid. If he can stay healthy he will have a good career with them.
