'15 IN ILB/OLB Asmar Bilal (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[Te'o4Heisman]

Keep in mind that was from a single game...not a whole year cherry picked.

He needs to put on 30 lbs, but an athlete with his frame could come in at 235 with mo problem. He will not be called upon to start right away. He will have at 1-2 years to see how Jaylon gets it done on and off the field. Hopefully he then grabs the torch.

I agree and like I said, I'm glad to have him, but while it may be one high school game rather than cherry picked highlights, he seems to get lost in traffic and certainly did not stand out, let alone dominate.

Somebody else (not Irishman77) mentioned that he's a high school kid, so of course he needs to get stronger..but in that video he is not a high school kid playing against college kids. He is a high school kid playing against less heralded high school kids, most of whom will not be playing competitive football after high school. I don't think against that competition it is unreasonable to expect to be able to play much more physically, defeat blocks and get down hill.
You can trust BK and the staff all you want, it's basically the only choice we have, however that does not mean I am not entitled to state what I see in the video that was provided just because it is not all peaches and cream.

I don't think anyone one this site is that much better/worse than anyone else, outside of maybe a handful of posters.

I'll gladly put my film evals against yours if that's what you're asking, lol. When it all boils down, we're fans on a board looking for things that stand out.

Ha... you're kidding, right? I don't know how many times I have ever read any of your "film evaluations" where they were informed at all. I'm pretty sure that you don't even know what to look for in a film. You rarely ever even use correct terminology or point out things that you are supposed to look for in a film.

I also don't agree that only a handful of people on here know how to break down film, in fact, I think the majority of longtime posters know a lot about breaking down film. Most of us have years of reading coaching articles, watching film break downs and going over recruiting profiles for years. It's a lot more than "just looking for things to stand out", which translates to "I have no idea what i'm looking at unless its obvious". I wasn't trying to compare you to anyone... but if you are going to press me, I would say that your constant inaccurate statements regarding recruits is enough evidence that maybe you should shut up and listen to others before being so vocal in your opinions... but that's never been your forte'... has it?

 

[GoldenDomer]

As far as not liking his film, you guys must see something I don't. The kid is explosive, instinctive, and closes on the ball carrier like a bat out of hell. He made a couple shoe string tackles... hawking down the RB in the backfield in what looks to be a state championship (in Lucas Oil)

Which ones? You can spare the board and PM me them if you want. Or post them, I don't care.

?

Nope, and it never will be nor should it be. I'm sharing my opinion like everyone else. I'm glad he's Irish (for the 3rd time today), but he didn't stand out in the film, didn't get off of blocks well, and overall didn't look physically overwhelming in a high school game.

How about someone attack TeoforHeisman for a change? He just said the exact same thing I did.

 

[ACamp1900]

For the record, I have long thought wooly's and koon's film breakdowns have always sucked equally...

Haha thanks dude

 

[yankeeND]

Who was the poster that said Bilal would just pass a folded up piece of paper with his commitment in it to Kelly? Film evaluation aside, that was as clairvoyant as I have ever seen lol. You gotta watch those quiet ones.

Only one way to settle this. Film-breakdown-off.

Whoever turns in the most comprehensive breakdown of the following film wins:

[Luckylucci]

Wow, congrats Asmar and Welcome! ND recruiting from a position of power is pretty nice, I could get used to this . Definitely not a depth chart impact player right off the bat but could contribute on ST or take 1 year to get his weight up. Once again we don't need impact freshman in the front 7 next year so why not bring in high upside players that can we can bring along over time.

Everybody knew a kid like this in high school. For me it was Pooh Bear Bazto. Pure baller...fifth star coming shortly.

Cool. I guess.

[ab2cmiller]

With Wiltfong's pevious comment about only taking one more, first come first serve, I think this means that Coney is not a take.

 

[woolybug25]

If you need my credentials, there's none about coaching. Lifelong Brett Favre and Irish fan. Two time first team all conference football player in high school, 2nd team all-state my senior year. In Wisconsin, so the competition was garbage.

I've seen you in person... how in the hell did you make 2nd team all state in football?

What year? What position? I'm calling BS.

 

[irishog77]

For the record, I have long thought wooly's and koon's film breakdowns have always sucked equally...

Koon- 0/10

Wooly- 2/10

I was/am really fast and athletic. And Wisconsin D-5 is garbage competition.

If you don't believe me, check the 'how tall are you' thread. There's a video of my sorry, 28 year old ass almost dunking at 5'8".

I will get my mom to send me pics of the 'all-conference' awards and try to google the honorable mention all-state cause I dont remember getting a print out..

 

[ShakeDown]

Lol ^

Welcome Asmar! Stud.

 

[ryno 24]

Anna just stated that we would take Coney as well

I swear on the mother Mary I was honorable mention all state my senior year, and 1st team all conference my junior and senior year. The all-conference I will be able to prove because I got 'certificates' of it. I don't remember getting anything for honorable mention all-state.

'Specialist' because I was at a school where I played RB/DB/KR/PR. I returned at leaast 8 PR or KR for TDs as a junior and senior. Their was a RB in our conference that was better than me, but I was pretty good and they wanted to give me something so I got it for 'specialist' both years.

I saw this list too and don't know where I am, lol. Hopefully I find proof of it because it's true.

 

[woolybug25]

Ha... so they forgot to list you?

Ok Koon.

Muscle-man.

Dunker of dunks.

You put the "ball" in "foosball".

I realize I look like I'm full of it right now, but I will search tonight and find something that shows it, lol. IDK why they don't have category 'specialists' because I thought it'd be looped in with kicker/punters, even though that doesn't make sense.
