Lmaoooooo these are the facts.

 

[BobbyMac]

You guys do know why Norte comes up so often... right?

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Because the kids don’t bother taking the time to spell check?

Shouldn't have to spell check something you typed correctly in the first place.

Southern drawl?

South of the border drawl.

I like his film a lot, shows good vision and ability to set up blocks. He has the strength to run through someone, enough wiggle to make people miss in the open field, and deceptive speed. I would like it if gained some traction here.

For real. Half my YouTube ads are in Spanish too.

[clashmore_mike]

Per Loy, Megwa has his official set for June 4-6.

 

[BobbyMac]

So he DID get to campus but it was an unofficial.

Dude's a Bullfrog.

Bullfrog? really. Can you not let Phil Smidt's (d. 2007) with its boned and buttered perch and frog legs R.I.P?


Your Region bona fides are in peril, but not until after your discussion with Harris' dad "region to region>"


Your "tell" will be if you call another player a "perch." Eyes are watching.......

Phil's was the all-time spot for Perch but the best frog legs in the Chicago - South Bend corridor was Tinker's Dam in Long Beach.

The spot that puts Perch, Frog Legs, Walleye, Escargot & Smelt on the same menu is Teibel's in Schererville. ND does Alumni Club meetings there quite often.

Pops Harris is already on my Christmas Card list. More to come there soon...

Bump. Haven’t heard any reports anything would change the interest level yet but just reminder Megwa did visit in June, just not the original OV

Jeremiah was a bullfrog.

We will see how everything plays out, but if a RB that has offers from LSU, Bama, Florida, Georgia, and Ohio State (regardless of which ones are commutable) is our backup option then I’m not complaining.

Was thinking about a tweet touching on this + Gi'Bran Payne which I just added a story on and your homie, Arlen Harris

Bump wasn’t needed

 

[calvegas04]

Assume he is going up to Washington to play?

 

[Rockin’Irish]

I would be interested to hear if anyone has feedback on why he would have made an unofficial visit to ND rather than an official visit………..thanks!

 

[Rockin’Irish]

P.S. I’ve seen conflicting info on whether the ND visit was official or not so that is even more confusing. A 247 article today indicates it was an official along with a more recent official to Washington.

 

[fightingirish26]

ND isn't really pursuing and he isn't a take per Loy. Not sure why the unofficial happened but that's why it wasn't an OV and why he won't be committing to ND tomo

 

[rtrn2glory]

So we're taking one RB

 

[EvilleIrish]

So we're taking one RB

Is that a bad thing?

 

[T-Boone]

So we're taking one RB

I dont think we should rush into anything just because Singleton isnt looking good (for now) and the other 2 went elsewhere.
This time last year I doubt any of us had even heard of Estime and with the last 12 months of not much football someone could easily emerge over the next 6 months that is worth going after.

 

[ThePiombino]

Is that a bad thing?

Only if you consider missing out on ND's top-5 targets over the past 2 years bad.

 

[zelezo vlk]

Would JD price not be considered a top 5 target? He may not be the equal of this year's top 3 of Sawchuk, Hayden, and Singleton, but he's not far from it.
