Funny. I did a profile for Jake in my project and it say "Hopefully ND will extend an offer to him and a $1.5M per offer to his father.

Traded a few messages with 2017 St. Joseph (Mich.) defensive end Corey Malone-Hatcher and he will make another return to South Bend for Irish Invasion. The 6-foot-3, 250-pounder has definitely not been a stranger to the Notre Dame campus during his recruitment, as the four-star has made his way to campus every couple of months for about two years.
“I don’t think I could miss it,” stated Malone-Hatcher.
Defensive line coach Keith Gilmore made his way to Malone-Hatcher’s high school in April to check on him, but will also make a return trip Friday to watch the St. Joseph star work out.
A source close on the Malone-Hatcher side of things doesn’t believe Gilmore and Notre Dame are getting outworked.
“Gilmore is always in contact,” stated the source. “He’s not being outworked, I’ll tell you that much.”
Notre Dame was behind the 8-ball for a while, as Malone-Hatcher hadn’t sat down with defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder, but that changed this spring. VanGorder let Malone-Hatcher know where he fit in the defense and the Michigan native was pleased with where the Notre Dame staff saw him.
” His point to me was getting a guy like me, who he said was very fundamentally strong and athlete, it’s a lower-risk pickup,” explained Malone-Hatcher after Notre Dame’s Junior Day. “I kind of didn’t understand, so he took the time to explain it to me. He basically said at my bottom line I would be what they call a ‘Dirty Starter’. I’d be dependable starter and another everyday starter. I mean I’d make huge plays and have production, but I’d be someone to be counted on to do my right fundamentals. I think if I work hard and stay in the tape room, I think I could have a really big impact on the field in that scheme.”
This will be Malone-Hatcher’s third visit to Notre Dame in 2016, as he was at both of Notre Dame’s Junior Days. He will join a loaded defensive end line up for Irish Invasion with the likes of Baron Browning, Hunter Echols, LaBryan Ray and Robert Beal Jr.

Could be after this year. Time will tell.

Not the biggest BVG fan over here, but I sure hope it isn't his last year. More than likely that means we watched serious regression on the defensive side of the ball that led to losses. Even though I'm not his biggest fan, I'd rather see him succeed and stay, than fail and leave.

I would prefer that our D overperforms, BVG gets an opportunity to go back to the NFL as a result, and we hire Brent Venables as D Coordinator. A man can dream right?

Kid is an absolute freak.

Elite talent nationally for the jr class.

Going to be tough to beat urban and ann arbor here, but glad to get him on campus working with the coaches.

goes to a catholic school in Toledo, Ohio. Maybe DK can do some work here.

For some reason I remember seeing DK talk to him at a game on TV during one of the bye weeks this year.

Kid's a Kentucky legacy. His old man played for them and is his high school coach IIRC

Agree, continuity is critical to successful programs. The ability to pick up and learn the D quickly is important. Don't want to go through another learning curve and waste 2-3 more years.

Bogs, you're up!

check Gant's thread, Bog is all over it lol

 

[koonja]

Our 2018 class is loaded for II. I wonder how much that played into Phil's decision to go public, or if the staff pushed for it for that reason. It couldn't be better timing, as we still have a month to recruit 2018's to the event and now they have arguably the biggest name already committed, who wouldn't want to visit.

Is Phil coming back for II

I'm pretty sure he was before the commitment but I could be wrong. If he was I assume he will definitely now but cannot confirm.

Per the update in his thread prior to this most recent visit: most likely.

confirmed list from 247

 

[BobbyMac]

Allen Stritzinger '17 MI 3star ATH coming to II per Ivins@Rivals.

 

[GreyWorm]

confirmed list from 247

I believe Scout and ISD both confirmed Drew Jordan and Robert Cooper aren't coming as of now with actual quotes from the players themselves.

Does Cooper have an offer? 247 has shown he has from the beginning but they don't show it on their timeline. No one else lists one either and he never sent out a tweet saying he got one like he did with the other offers he received.

You know this is a free article, right?

Notre Dame has made some early traction with two of the nation’s best athletes in the 2018 class in Joshua and Jordan Moore, twins from Yoakum High School in Texas. The pair of four-star prospects have been in contact with running backs coach Autry Denson and are expected in South Bend at some point this summer.
We caught up with Joshua Moore to get some insight into his recruitment.
“Coach Denson and I have been in contact for a while now,” Moore told Irish Sports Daily. “Notre Dame isn’t going to offer us until we get up there. I don’t think they have had a chance to come down this spring, so we will get up there. It will be good to visit and meet with Coach. It’s one of my main schools to get to right now.
“I am going to call Coach Denson later on. I hope they can stop by next week, so I am going to check up on that”.
The 6-foot-2, 170-pounder figures to be one of the more electric players in the 2018 recruiting class and has already been doing his research on the Irish.
“It’s absolutely exciting to be recruited by Notre Dame,” explained Moore. “I am doing my homework on them right now. When they started recruiting me a couple months ago, I started researching them. I have been reading a lot on Google about them, so I am starting to learn more about Notre Dame.”
When you watch Moore’s film, you see big play after big play, so it’s not a surprise to hear him state he wants to be the best in the country and his goal is to be the best in the country.
“Every time I step on the field, I am out to get somebody and prove a point,” stated Moore. “I am out to prove why I am one of the best in the country. I am out to prove my name and why I feel like I am the best in the country. I’m out to prove something, so every game I have a chip on my shoulder.
“My passion for the game is unbelievable.”
At the next level, Moore could end up at receiver or safety, while his brother could play running back or safety. Moore doesn’t have a preference at this stage, as both positions will allow him to get after the football.
“I don’t have a preference on what side of the ball I play on,” he said. “Either one is fine with me. I will make plays wherever you put me.”
Moore has almost 20 offers before his junior year starts and he believes he has earned every one of them. Arizona State, Baylor, BYU, Houston, Michigan, Michigan State, Missouri, Oklahoma Texas A&M and Texas Tech have already offered, but Notre Dame and Oregon are close it pulling the trigger.
“It’s a blessing and it’s something I have dreamed about since I was little, so for it to start to come true, it’s al little overwhelming,” Moore stated. “It’s not really a surprise, because I knew they would come with the hard work I put in. It’s jus a wonderful feeling.”
Growing up, Moore was in a divided household, as his parents graduated from two local programs.
“I watched OU and Texas going up,” said Moore. “My mother graduated from OU and my father graduated from Texas A&M, so I am not sure how I got on the OU side, but I grew up watching those two programs a lot.”
In terms of summer visits, the Moore twins will be out and about quite a bit. The Midwest is likely to host a Yoakum stars for a tour, but no dates have been locked in.
“There are a few programs recruiting me hard,” explained Moore. “Michigan State, Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Missouri and Arizona State would be the schools recruiting me the hardest right now.
“I want to see Michigan, Notre Dame and TCU for sure. Alabama and a few others will probably get visits.”
Academics will play a role in Moore’s decision, but it’s safe to say distance will not play a factor. Moore will look to find a comfort level at schools this summer, but also schools that can help him accomplish what he wants out of the college experience.
“Well first and foremost, I am looking at academics,” said Moore. “If they have a good academic system and I want to feel like I can achieve my greatest dream, which is playing in the league. Those are my main focuses right now. Distance isn’t a factor in my decision at all.”
