Gabe could end up playing TE or DE in college but ND is recruiting him at DE.

He grew up a Sooners fan and OU and Stanford look like they're going to be ND's biggest competition for Gabe. Gabe has said that he'd like to visit ND this summer.

Yesterday he stated ND and Stanford were the leaders for his sevrices. Altough, I think if OU offers they will end up right in the mix.

This will be an interesting situation this recruiting season. Is OU in the market for a TE? Does OU take too long and tick off Gabe? Only time will tell...

I like him at DE- we always can use another DE- plus he is as smart as all get out- just wondering how fast he is.

OK... that link doesn't work! You can just go to YouTube and search Gabe Ikard. You will get OHSSE Top Football Recruits 2009 #1. His part is at the 1:46 mark.

In the small amount of video I saw on him he showed good speed and nice hands , along with some quicks.

Ikard

This kid is a Notre Damer....a visit to the University will convince him. Look for him in an Irish uniform.

Per ESPN,

Offer from Sooners causes Gabe Ikard to reevaluate his list

Tight end Gabe Ikard was surprised by his newest offer from in-state power Oklahoma. The ESPN 150 Watch List prospect spoke with affiliate Web site OUInsider.com about where he now stands.
"I had pretty much narrowed it down to Stanford and Notre Dame. Really, it was down to Stanford, Notre Dame and OSU. Now you can throw OU in there. Obviously, that doesn?t make my decision any easier."

Count OSU out, this kid is smart. Academics mean a lot to him. So now look at Stanford and ND, which one is not like the other? Thats right, Stanford. With ND's academics and storied football program, this guy is going blue and gold.

Maybe, but smart kids think outside the box of state school and realize that football may not be their lives career. A good education at a very well respected univ. will probably go a lot further than football. Thats why ND is so great. yeah, we produce NFL players, but we also produce well adjusted, smart, and well rounded business men. I think this guy is mature enough to realize that.

Is likely going to visit for the Michigan game on Sept 13. In order to get this OK kid out of OK, they will need an official visit. ND remains one of his top schools, along with OK and Stanford.
