I've heard he doesn't want to play behind Rosen and my UCLA friend says their insiders see him going to ND

Reminds me of Bridgewater personally. Hard to tell how good he is at running because his highlight tape doesn't show it that much (which is a good thing IMO). Please let us get this guy.

I haven't watched enough of Bridgewater. When Golson showed up, people liked to say the ball "exploded" out of his hands. It looks the same, possibly just a bit less, with Henry.

Either way, he'd be such an amazing pickup to start the 16 class. He'd also pave the way for our two top OL targets and hopefully a slew of skill position players.

I wonder how painful it was for Loy to switch his CB from FSU

Anyway, good stuff!

Loy is probably really bummed now. I also asked Jake Brown and he said it seems to be pointing in that direction.

I've made my prediction for Malik Henry's Crystal Ball, picking him to land at Notre Dame. The nation's No. 1 quarterback according to the 247Sports Composite has named Notre Dame, Ohio State, Florida State and UCLA as his four favorites but 247Sports has been reporting that Florida State and Notre Dame remain the two most likely to land the signal-caller.

While he has already visited all of his four leaders, Henry has another unofficial visit scheduled this weekend for its game against Michigan. In a recruiting game where visits speak volumes, that is enough for me to give Notre Dame the edge

Would I get neg repped if I pointed out how many similarities there are between Barnett and Henry if he decides to commit this fall...

I wouldn't neg rep you, but I think Henry has more offers and visits under his belt already than Blake did at this point. He may have actually visited more schools already than Blake did in total.

Nothing is a given, and there are similarities, but I'm hoping Henry will have answered more of the necessary questions before pulling the trigger.

Besides the fact that Henry has visited every school he has wanted to see at least once? I don't see many similarities, QB's commit early to help other recruitment's. I was jacked up about Barnett but Henry would just make my man crush stronger.

I get what you're saying, but Blake was pretty under the radar when he committed to ND. Once he started camping and went up the ranks, he decided to open up his recruitment. Malik is already highly rated and has taken a handful of visits already.

California + QB + "Similar" talent + skillset + Committing basically 2 seasons before they will join the team is similar enough to make me worry. Particularly the California aspect.

Let's state the obvious: we only want a commit if it's solid and through signing day.

Take your time Malik, if ND is right then join us and bring the rest of the class with you so that you are ready to dominate the moment you take your first snap.

Lift off the bag! We need to crush Michigan if he is indeed visiting this weekend. We need to crush Michigan anyways!

While I understand those similarities, those are tiny factors or almost coincidences in my mind in comparison to what others stated. He can go wherever he wants, right now/today

This feels like a commitment is imminent, IMO. When one 247 guy hears something it will make it's way around over the course of a day or two and the CB's start rolling in. Considering it started with Wiltfong I tend to place some credence to it. The one CB that seems to be a tell that a commitment is imminent is JC then Shannon as they have no clue what's going on and only make picks, especially this early, when they've been told this is what's happening.
