You mentioned Miami twice and he has a Rutgers offer so can you just replace.

hey trippero, have tim ruddy give this kid a call..................

Recruiting violation, unless we're talking about Joe McKnight and Reggie Bush. Then it's ok apparently.

The recruit could call them, not the other way around.

Well this will be his first time to ND's campus so I wouldn't expect anything too soon. Not saying it couldn't or won't happen but I think you might see this one drag out a few more months into the spring and or summer.

free article on yahoo: More big offers come for Shrive - NCAA Football - Yahoo! Sports

More big offers come for Shrive
By Mike Farrell, Recruiting Analyst
5 hours, 23 minutes ago

Offers are continuing to come in for Rivals100 offensive tackle Eric Shrive. The 6-foot-7, 285-pounder is now up to 18 scholarships, the latest come from a couple elite programs in the Big Ten.

“I got offers recently from Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma and Wisconsin, that puts me up to 18 scholarships,” he stated. “Michigan is a very prestigious program. They always have great offensive linemen. As does Wisconsin.

“Oklahoma and Ohio State are very good programs too. Ohio State contended for the national title the last two years and they also have good offensive linemen.”

Do any of the offers stick out?

“Not really, I’m wide open,” he said. “I want a place I’ll fit in with the guys on the team and the other students at the school. I want a place I’ll have a great relationship with the offensive line coach and the head coach. I also want to make an impact early.”


In the meantime, Shrive is working on more visits.

“I’m going to Miami in March and Illinois in April,” he said. “I’m going to schedule some more visits, I’m trying to get to some of the places that have offered me.”

Why such negative reactions up there? Think about it for a second - if Weis talked to him (and since he is who he is, I'm sure he did) then what would he say to him?

- Talk about the school/program
- What role he would play in all of that
- Goals between now and potentially playing at ND
- AND about recruiting and the 'new ND' recruiting and how that all goes

My point here is that most likely Charles told him that recruiting is like a marriage thing, and that even if he really likes ND he had better shop around because once he commits, it is final. So it would seem that he is probably taking that advice to heart and checking out a bunch of other schools. Would you really want another Omar Hunter? Let the kid look at 500 schools if he likes - if it means he ends up happy at ND, then great.

Agreed, and going into the process he said that he wanted to take his time and visit a bunch of schools. He never said he was thinking of committing to ND early, that was just a bunch of fan speculation because they're getting a Chicken Little complex.

agreed nd62. In the end if the kid doesn't want to be Irish, so be it. That's how I felt with O.H. If you don't want to be here then don't come.
