Obviously yes.

 

[tko]

name, yep.

 

[BobbyMac]

Obviously yes.

IKR. There's probably an issue academically as Stanford has yet to offer but they are recruiting him. Hopefully with the addition of Sanford, ND will be a regular at De La Salle. You have to show interest in every kid that comes down the pipeline at that type of school. Those coaching staffs have ego's that rival any top 20 teams and you need the coaches to like you... not just the nuns.

Saw him play against Centennial in the state finals. He shouldn't be allowed to play with kids his age. He is an animal. I have no idea how the services think there are 8-13 better DT's in his class. Either they are incompetent or there are going to be some future HOF'ers in this class.

[bkess8]

Do want!

 

[Irish#1]

If we haven't shown interest yet, I doubt we do. We'll be so far behind everyone else it would take a miracle to land him.

 

[BobbyMac]

Looks like UCLA is the heavy favorite. Never any serious ND interest for whatever reason and they were at De La Salle to see Asiasi.

Can't knock the hustle, he's all over the place.

 

[GoldenDomer]

The guy doesn't stop. Good on him.

 

[NCND]

The guy doesn't stop. Good on him.

Agree. The hater, this guy is crazy shit needs to stop. If BK was doing this and currently had a top 2 or 3 class the most of us would be singing his praises.

Jimmy putting in that work

Did he climb your tree Boss? No?

Does not want you.

Don't we have a skunkbear thread for this stuff? I hate opening up threads only to find out I'm following Michigan or Texas A&M or UCLA recruiting.

If you think recruit news can't be posted in that respective recruit's thread, then I'm not sure anyone here can help you.

Lol......this just made my day!!!!!

I didn't realize that being crazy and being a good recruiter were mutually exclusive?

I'm pretty sure the precedent has been set that we can say whatever the damn hell we want about the devil up north. Get outta here with that nonsense.

So how do you define "recruit," because I define it as someone ND has been or will be recruiting?

Some random DT that Harbaugh is after is not a recruit, that's my whole point. That's why we have the "All things skunkbear" thread...

But I digress, I've gotten sick of reading about Harbaugh, but it sounds like other people are obviously enjoying it.

Recruit: A high school person engaged in a sport of some sort, being evaluated and contacted by coaches of varying moral fiber and emotional stability in order to convince said high school sport player to attend their respective university and perform on field activities in exchange for a free education (or partial education depending on the sport). Recruits occur in all 50 states and in foreign countries and are not obliged to attend any university that is recruiting them, although a universities favoribility of a high school person engaged in a sport of some sort varies throughout the recruitment period until they are finally required to sign a contract before attending their chosen university.

Well he has a RECRUITING thread in a RECRUITING forum on a RECRUITING site, soooooo....

I'm with you. I look at a recruit's thread being bumped as either we are back in it or we just lost him. If we have been out of it for a long time, don't care what else is going on with him. Obviously we are in the minority here.

 

[Domina Nostra]

Actually, the recruiting forum is named "Notre Dame Football Recruiting." I understand that we talk national recruiting a little too, but that's what I think those school specific threads are for, which was my entire, and only, point. This is Irish Envy, not Rivals.

LOL, Obviously. That's exactly how I see it.

But once again, if people are enjoying the Harbaugh stuff, enjoy.

 

[beryirish]

No big deal and I agree with both sides here.

But if I had to cross the line in the sand I would side with Domina.

This far along in the season I would have put it in the All Things Skunkbear.

When I saw his thread bumped I thought either he committed somewhere or ND is doing late evaluations and some good news is coming. With the latter thought, I was excited to see his profile and see a four star DT.

...only to see it was because Harbaugh was in class today.

Chip Kelly has moved him to Center after he was previously a highly ranked Defensive Tackle

3. The Bruins have been woeful up front for a long time now. One position move that potentially could help remedy that is shifting starting defensive tackle Boss Tagaloa, a four-star prospect in 2016, to center. “Hopefully it is a permanent switch,” left tackle Andre James said of Tagaloa’s transition. “He looked fantastic [Tuesday]. He’s just a natural out there.”
