No one can complain about not offering early on this guy, but if Florida Atlantic wants him, I want him!

Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football, Basketball, and Recruiting Front Page

Freebie on Scout.

Basically said that he will keep in contact with ND and Elston and that he enjoyed the visit and spent most of his time with Elston and likes him a lot. Said that we are recruiting him at OLB. He likes the degree ND can give him and can see himself returning for another visit but he remains solid to FSU.

Did he say solid or was that your word? All that does not sound solid. Or is this just wishful thinking? :)

You're right...it doesn't sound solid at all but his exact words in the article were, "I'm a verbal commit, so I'm pretty solid".

But there's a paragraph where he's basically comparing ND and FSU so he's at least considering us. Who knows if he's just saying that stuff cuz he's being interviewed about ND or not but the article had some positive news at least. Give it a read...it's not long.

He is like 95% solid on FSU, I'd say. FSU was his dream school so it would be hard to top them. ND is a school that intrigues him, but will be a tough pull for the Irish. I think he is the type of kid that would really thrive once he bought into the ND environment.

Thanks. Hopefully we put together a nice season and we stay in contact. The fact that he made it up here on his own dime says something and it's nice that Coney went to his HS as well. Hopefully landing Studstill would help here too. Add some comfort and some guys he can talk to about the ND environment.

Thanks Lax. Reading the recap didn't give me any hope for this guy...i think he looking for a little more social than ND can provide. Hopefully he keeps the door open.

I wouldn't say that...its just tough to beat a kids dream school.

“It was nice,” said Cowan. “I didn’t expect Notre Dame to be as nice as it was. I really liked the campus and the facilities. I liked the weight room the most. I was hanging out with Tevon Coney and Jaylon Smith and then Devin Studstill was with us. We went to Buffalo Wild Wings. I could see that Tevon and Jaylon were already boys and he was like one of the guys already, which was great to see. I liked how everyone is pretty close. This trip, man, it was better than I expected.”

“Just the environment and the people up there,” said Cowan regarding why he wants to visit a second time. “I want to get back up there and spend even more time with the defensive coaches like Coach VanGorder and Coach Elston. I want to see how they want to use me and if it would be the same way they use Jaylon. They like me at outside linebacker and I love playing there. I actually prefer that over defensive end. That’s also where I committed to play at Florida State.”
