Yes but what does the chicken liver say?

That's the whole problem with recruiting news these days-- an over-reliance on shady individuals who stalk underage male athletes. We need to get back to the methods that have withstood the test of time; namely, augury and haruspicy. Couldn't be any less accurate, right?

As far as soft sciences go, I think phrenology is vastly underrated.

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.

Does he have a Notre Dame golf bag?

I thought they lead for Haskins no? Anyway, I wish we would have nabbed Wilson, such a burner.

Hate to be a party pooper but according to Steve, Henry will not be committing this weekend even if he wants too because his dad wouldn't allow it. I am rather glad because we need to be sure he is absolutely committed bc of the fiasco with Blake this year

This falls right in-line with slothden's (II poster) post about Malik wanting ND and his father not sold yet.

How does that happen? Aside from vague "bad feelings" or "I just don't like the coach, he's an asshole," how can you not be sold on the impact ND can have on your child's future?

If ND handles their business on the field, then it becomes an easy decision. Great academics, great product on the field.

Everett and our offense will be the key.

Not being knit-picky but what is absolutely committed?

There is no such thing. Absolutely committed anymore means when they are on the field in South Bend. Leans, commitments, hard commitments, LOI, enrollment... they can change their mind at anytime. BUT statistically, it's not a bad thing to get a commitment regardless of when it comes. Most make it to campus, so take it when you can get it.

In regards to Barnett's fiasco... It was one of the least painful of all the real fiasco's that have happened. Names like Vanderdoes, Greenbury and Darby were much more impactful than his.

It's actual pretty common. Just because their parents doesn't mean that they operate with a higher level of understanding or intelligence. Many parents live vicariously through their kids achievements and they want that ride to continue. I'm not saying this is the case here but it happens all the time. I'm not saying that Barnett's father is the sole reason for his decommitment but his interactions in the recruitment didn't help.

I hope you are right, and we will know over the next several years. I have a feeling that he is going to do pretty well. I think the qb's we have and look good for getting will mitigate the loss though.

Supposedly his father doesn't like South Bend. TWIW.
