I watched the video above, and it looks like he has the athleticism and the instincts. If he comes to ND, hopefully they can improve his fundamentals and get him a lower tackling base. That stuff won't fly in college.

I rarely put any thought into HS stats. For all we know those numbers for McCullough were solo tackles OR he played in a bunch of blow outs. He may have averaged only 2-3 quarters per game.

For sure and I wasn't trying to make the case for Jones being the better prospect. Just wanted to instill some excitement about the player we may potentially get (or lose to FUM)

Yeah, I guess I just don't see the athleticsm to get excited over. He's not a sideline to sideline player. I was excited about him before I watched his film - when I think of undersized linebackers, I think of guys that fly around and smoke ball carriers - like Denzel Perryman. This kid lacks explosion and power. I don't know if he'll ever be more than a special teams player unless he can grasp the system, then he's a 4 year starter.

A lot of Notre Dame CBs have been coming in for Jon Jones and Nate Johnson in the last 24 hours

Nowhere he is speaking out of his ass, both rivals and 247 still have Irish in good shape with Robertson

In good shape, but the fact that Robertson is postponing his decision until after NSD, retaking the SAT this past weekend, and visiting GT this upcoming weekend speaks volumes. I get the kid is looking at all of his options, but I also think he's looking for reasons to not attend ND.

If history is a guide, I don't think he visits Georgia Tech, and I'm wondering if Demetris even took the SAT's this past weekend.

Lorenz put in a CB for ND. Have to think he is signing with the good guys if that all-time-homer is conceding it.

Yeah! Fuck Michigan!

There I did it. It was taking too long.

This kid looks way fast to me, and explosive. Kind of reminds me of Shumate.

Chance he could play as a safety hybrid?

I'm pretty sure this has already been wrapped up. Just from the confidence that both ND and UM sides have that ND is the choice.
