supposedly the knock on him is that he doesn't give it 100% on plays sometimes...this was something that was noted regarding him at the opening whether he would bring it

If those stats include taking off plays against 4 and 5 star competition I say sign him and let him continue to take plays off because he's obviously great at selecting which ones to do it on.

USC 247 posters have thrown in the towel here. Apparently USC will be backing away for now as they'll be full and he didn't decided fast enough. Makes us the defacto #1 as of now.

Corona (Calif.) Centennial seniors Chacho Ulloa and Javon McKinley have fallen victim to a new tease — a tandem nickname coined by their coaches and fellow teammates.

"They call us 'The Fighting Irish Boys'," Ulloa said. "Literally me and him are on the outside at receiver, or next to each other on kickoff and kick return. We're side by side, so they always call us the 'Fighting Irish Boys' or the 'Notre Dame Boys'. They tease; they'll call me 'Stanford' and him 'Notre Dame', or me 'Notre Dame' and him 'Oregon', something like that.

So, what is the pecking order at WR? It seems like Javon favors ND, Donnie Corley may be looking to visit again at a later date, and who knows what is happening with Robimson out of Georgia. And there is Alloway and Stovall. How many WR's does ND take in this set? It seems that we are stacked at WR and it doesn't seem like a huge need. IS this going to become a "first come, first serve" scenario? Obviously, if Robinson wants in, then he gets in and they find a position for him later. I am just curious how the WR recruiting shakes out.

Robinson? Do you guys mean Demetris Robertson?

Robertson is a take no matter what, I think he's best WR in the class and the type of WR hasn't got in the last few classes and is the ideal replacement for Will Fuller.

Nate Craig-Meyers is the #1 WR on one of the major recruiting sites and is at worst a top 5 WR and IMO you just can't turn down talent like that.

McKinley is one o my favourite WR in the class and one of the best in the class, no worse than Top 10 IMO. He's just to good to pass up, unless Robertson and Craig-Meyers have already committed to ND he's an automatic take.

Corley, well he's a great talent and would be a great get I just don't think he's an automatic take at this time. He would have been before ND got Claypool and Stepherson committed. As good as Corley is I don't think he ready to play as a freshman and with Claypool and Stepherson ones for the future and the WR depth I think they need to take a wait and see approach to see what happens to Robertson, Craig-Meyers and McKinley before moving on to Corley.

I would also hold off at this time with Alloyway, good talent who would be a good get but he's not a need and don't need to take him when he not going to play for sometime at the expense of possibly getting one of the big 3 mentioned above.
