nice

how good is this guy though

I think that CW knows talent and character; I expect Braxton to be SOLID!!! For those that need reassurance based on what other schools see.....had an offer from Michigan.

Benches over 400!!! Also, as indicated, he can play both sides of the line. This is great news......

I can just hear it now "Braxston really Caved in that DL on that pancake block" or " He really Caved in the middle of the offensive line with that pass rush"...ah the wealth of new catch phrases are there no matter where he plays.

I love it, this is a huge pick up. No matter where he plays I love seeing our OLine and DLine getting size back. He is going to be a beast once Mendoza gets ahold of him.

Huge is an understatement, finally a DT that has some sense and I'm sure it'll pay off in the end. Congrats!!

Question: isn't 28 reps how many Joe Thomas did at the Combine? Are Cave's reps at 225 as well?

He also had Florida and Iowa recruiting him heavily, besides the other two big Indiana schools. With his strength and his desire to play defense I think NT might be the best position for him, but he would be a bit of a project there since this will be his first year playing significant time on defense.

Well, Cave isn't in college. And I have to agree with the above posters, it's usually 185 that's used at the camps.

I know he is not in college. I was saying when the players go to the college to work out they do 225, not 185.

LOL, Florida is already trying to flip him...

As with Golic, ND isn't going to have to worry about Cave flipping to another school, despite the efforts of former neighbor and current Florida defensive coordinator Greg Mattison who has been texting him to remind him that the weather in Florida is warm and sunny instead of cold and snowy like South Bend.

During the latest video I posted under the media section in the first post Braxton mention that he has become pretty close to several guys that are very close to committing to ND.

seems like a really good kid and glad he always wanted to come to nd so he won't change his mind.

He looks like an athletic guy, and there's nothing better then getting guys from your own state.

Did he say who these other guys might be or any clue who they are?

Did Florida offer, and if not why text the kid things like this.

GG, I just watched the video. He is HUGE! I really hope he plays DL cuz I think he could give a lot of guys trouble. He already has a college build. I like the fact that he's already helping w/ the recruiting and trying to get guys to come to ND w/ him. That is awesome and I can't wait to see him on Saturdays.
