'17 WA ATH Salvon Ahmed (Washington Verbal)

[STLDomer]

"I'm not worried at all about the distance,” Ahmed said. "I’ll just figure out the best place for me. I feel like I would really like (Notre Dame). Now I just have to go visit and see it for myself.”

The more I look at who's left and who's most important, besides one of the Big 3 OT's and maybe one of the Big 3 CB's (I say maybe because Ahmed might be a better CB than them when if stops being a RB half the time), Ahmed is at the top of my board.

In fact, as much as I think Sarell or Smith are a need, (future NFL OT's are always a need right?) a CB of these guys level is more important. The OL has potential AA replacements for their departing AA's. The CB position doesn't have anywhere near the same wealth of talent.

 

[arrowryan]

I think he will be Irish if he visits

 

[Big23Head]

Scout: Lyght is working on an Msu OV for him. Plans to announce late September, early october

 

[ND Fan Vancouver]

After reading his comments I'm also thinking if we get him on campus he may commit. With the talent out there considering ND, this class may end up VERY highly ranked and a monster for us. Getting really excited just hope this all doesn't end up a disappointment.
GO IRISH

 

[BobbyMac]

OK... I'm gonna roll with ND signing Wade, Graham & Ahmed. It's the same feeling I have every Friday after I buy my Powerball ticket.

 

[GBdomer]

Hopefully this is KK Russell recruitment all over again

Nothing locked in, but says he cannot make a decision without visiting ND. Targeting MSU, and if not, Stanford week. Says regardless of a date, a trip to ND will definitely happen.

 

[Irish#1]

That sounds very promising.

 

[Big23Head]

Scout: OV locked in for the MSU game. Only OV scheduled (I would bet Washington gets one too). Decision in September or October

 

[BobbyMac]

The fact that this is a thing is stressful for me. UDub is trending hard right now though. It's a quality choice
The question you have to ask Salvon is... Do you want the keys to Seattle or do you want doors in Boston, NY, DC, Chicago all the way to LA opened for you?

I think if any grown man lets a teenager they don't know stress them out then it's time to take a step back.

Ouch. I'll run my choice of words by you in the future so as not to look like the multi-site, multi-platform, ND fan boi that I'm not.

Thanks for the intervention.

I think if one is not a fan boi, then what is one doing on this site? #intervention

 

[Mavericknyc1980]

Looks promising.

Huge difference between fan and fanboi.

Week after he visits.

 

[Luckylucci]

He's fast, really fast.

That's all I got, huge want here

 

[House16]

A) Stanford Oregon USC Washington ND one of these things is not like the other

B) Top hat emoji? What?

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

I may have missed it but two questions:

1. Do we know where he's projected? RB? WR? FS?

2. Do we have any feel for how much we're in it?

Week after he visits.

So, he's going to OV at the Michigan State game, come home, and announce? That sounds promising. Basically down to us and Washington? Has he been to the other schools?

 

[stlnd01]

A) Stanford Oregon USC Washington ND one of these things is not like the other

B) Top hat emoji? What?

A: You mean Washington sucks?

B: The leprechaun wears a top hat of sorts. Guessing that's what he was going for. Or he's really into Monopoly, thinking of all the money he'll make in real estate finance with that ND degree, and picturing himself as Rich Uncle Pennybags.

 

[PANDFAN]

247 is reporting that UNLESS we hit a home run on his official, it will be washington..hasn't visited anywhere else

CB for question number 1 from what I have read.

 

[BobbyMac]

A: You mean Washington sucks?
.

Washington is way better at school than Oregon. It's closer to the other three than Oregon on the USNWR rankings.

Washington hasn't done it yet but they will pass Oregon in football this year, maybe even Stanford and the entire conference.

Oregon is now the outlier.

 

[BobbyMac]

CB for question number 1 from what I have read.

Yes and that's why he'll be a Husky. They are gonna give him the rock and he'll get it early.

 

[PANDFAN]

that's what 247 has been saying...he will be able to go right in and play

 

[BobbyMac]

That and they are going to rule the North during his time at UDub.

They are a sexy sleeper pick to make a playoff run this year, which is a year early on their timeline. The schedule sets up nice with a lot of traditionals being down w/ QB questions plus SC and Stanford come to them and the only heavy they have on the road are the Ducks.
