'17 FL DE Jonathon MacCollister (UCF Transfer)

[GrangerIrish24]

His film reminds me of Kerry Neal but with more aggression.

 

[NDdomer2]

Nice pickup. I'm not sure what position he lands at but I can see him being an Isaac Rochell type, who has been one of my favorite players the last couple of years.

I need to stock up on dancing GIFs since I've been posting here more often.

He is a bit trimmer and more mobile than Isaac was at similar stages. He may be able to slide inside t some point in his career but I don't quite see him being the physical force Isaac has been since day one. However, Jonathon, should be a better pass rusher than Isaac.

Thank God! Getting a little nervous on the '17 recruit post bumps!

Thought same thing... Good to hear good news

Thought same thing... Good to hear good news

Is there some way the mods can set up a "not a flip" notification when a recruit's thread gets bumped? No italics b/c I'm only half kidding.

I hope this pic isn't an accurate depicture of how tall McAlister is. Parker isn't taller than 6'2".

I'd say JMc is a solid 6'3. Just took a picture with Kelly and he's quite a bit taller, like 5-6 inches taller.

'17 FL DE Jonathon MacCollister (Notre Dame Signee)

This kid committed so early I never watched his film till signing day.

Let me tell you. I think big bird has the most upside on defense in this class. The sky is the limit for this kid with his size and athleticism. He could be starting TE for majority of power 5 schools.

Now I understand why he has such an impressive offer list.

Big bird is my favorite defensive recruit this cycle.

Parker is listed at 6-2.5. I remember him being one of the few recruits that actually reported his height accurately.

[dad4aa]

Is he the start of the transfers?

 

[zelezo vlk]

Do you have info or a link? Otherwise, I'd say we shouldn't speculate in kids' threads

 

[dad4aa]

Has not been at practice.

And isn’t 90% of what gets posted speculation?

 

[zelezo vlk]

Has not been at practice.

Ah, yeah that's news. I couldn't fault the kid, as I don't see him getting playing time ahead of anybody else.

 

[BobbyMac]

If true:

A. Wouldn't surprise me, fits the profile of who would transfer.

B. Gonna be weird going home after finals and having ND use Bishop Moore (him & P-Money's HS) for a lot of their Citrus Bowl functions.

Best of luck to him which ever way it goes. Has a roomy waiting on him at UCF if that's where he lands.

 

[NDdomer2]

yeah this one wouldnt surprise me at all. dude pretty much grew up with PMoney and his family. As soon as he announced his leaving and the staff still offering DE's he was my first guess.

 

[PANDFAN]

there has been a lot of

for quite some time

 

[IrishLion]

If you're gonna drop a bomb like this, at least provide the info that you gave in your follow-up post.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Is that a picture of the back seat of the car Max was driving in?

 

[stlnd01]

Bad if I kind of forgot this guy was on the football team? Though I guess that’s a sign of a likely transfer.

 

[BGIF]

Has not been at practice.

Perhaps on some boards but not here.

At IE, it's 90% confirmed rumor.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

I understand why he would transfer.

He was my defensive sleeper in the 2017 class. Thought Big Bird was athletic and had big time upset.

I guess you cannot be correct every time.

P-Money & Change. Good luck Big Bird!

[fightingirish26]

If he's not good enough for ND, why would he go to UCF?? Good luck JMac.

 

[irishff1014]

We will be lucky to have a roster of 75 lol

 

[IrishFanJMercy]

I don't mind it this kid I don't think would have ever played here as a full time starter if we are under 85 we can always Persue grad transfers

 

[PANDFAN]

Coaching staff was aware for long time... Factored into Their 85

 

[GBdomer]

He has more then a legit reason for leaving. Good luck playing for the national champs

 

[NDVirginia19]

Heyo he gave us a shout out in Alumni. All the Freshmen I know thought he was an awesome guy, and I'm sure they're sad to see him go. Best of luck to him, he'll enjoy his time there more I'm sure with his best friend
