ND offered as a Corner, they like his length....leaving in 30mins.... His coach says that he's real pumped about the bid

The length is great but at 200# already I see future safety personally.

kid has got to be a safety, it wouldn't make sense to take smaller guys like crawford, coleman and ashton this year then go for jumbo corners in 2016

He is a pretty smooth athlete, I think he could stay at corner and be a Richard Sherman type player.

We're recruiting him at CB, real nice player. We have some opportunities with some quality DB's

Really like this kid as well. Seem to be going after a lot of length at DB in this cycle

said that Notre Dame is on his short list of schools along with LSU, Auburn, Texas A&M and Ole Miss.

"They actually moved up in my recruitment," Vaughn said when asked about the offer. "The visit was cool, just seeing Touchdown Jesus and the campus and everything. - See more at: https://notredame.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1775793#sthash.JIFzPOS5.dpuf

"It meant a lot because usually they don't recruit [Tennessee] so that was cool," Vaughn said.

When asked what he liked about each school in his top five, Vaughn gave a few words on each program.

Notre Dame — "I was kind of expecting [them to offer] on the visit, but I love Notre Dame."

Texas A&M — "I talk to [defensive coordinator] John Chavis and I don't know, I just kind of have a thing for Texas A&M."

LSU — "LSU it's DBU .. What can you not like about it?"

Auburn — "Me and [assistant coach] Tim Horton talk a lot and we have a good relationship."

Ole Miss — "They have been recruiting me for a while now, and it's kind of close."

"It meant a lot because usually they don't recruit [Tennessee] so that was cool," Vaughn said.

needs to change if true.

ND has 5 offers out to TN prospects this year and safety Ikenna Okeke is near the top of most people's want list so they work it, just less than other states. It's an SEC state, even with Memphis being an AAC school, it's surrounded by SEC in every direction

ND does a good job of recruiting in it's footprint with Texas being the only real outlier but everyone recruits Texas, Florida and California. You have no choice.
