'10 NC LB Kendall Moore (Notre Dame Signee)

[WabashFalcon]

With all the LB's, I have to think that the 3-4 has to be used much, much more than the 4-3 base.

I think right now our team is better suited for a 3-4. We are still gonna have most of our talent back next year too. Brian Smith, Darius Fleming, Steve Filer, David Pozluzny, Anthony McDonald, Manti Te'o, Zeke Motta, Carlo Calabrese, and Dan Fox. The Irish would like to add Kendall Moore and Anthony Barr (who could play DE and from reports the Irish have begun discussing the possibilty of RB). Its not a bad problem to have.

I think right now our team is better suited for a 3-4. ...

Why?

Explain.

 

[jason_h537]

Why?

Explain.

Kerry neal and Darius Fleming are more tweeners that are perfect for the 3-4. Sean Cwyner and Ethan Johnson are those big 3-4 ends that stack well against the run. plus our depth at LB and lack of at D line better suit our numbers. I prefer a 4-3 d and am happy to see us go back to it but our recruitng that past couple years have been for a 3-4. Now we need Cwyner and Johsnon to bulk up to play tackle, Neal moves down to DE ( which i think will suit him better), and hope Fleming is athletic enough to play SAM.

 

[Brown]

This team has lots of LB depth / talent ... and lack of depth/talent at DL. I don't think we run a true 3-4 because of our lack of size on the defensive line. No true nose tackle to gobble up blockers and let our talented LBs do their thing. We need as many bodies on the line as possible to slow down oppositions running attack.

 

[WabashFalcon]

Why?

Explain.

We have more talent at LB. We do not have two stud DTs in the middle. More talent, less "holy-shit-they-are-throwing-the-ball-all-over-the-field-because-we-have-no-pass-rush-up-the-middle".

 

[NDinL.A.]

UPDATE: He's coming to ND on the 26th of June, this Friday, with his parents. Good friend and fellow ND recruit Prince Shembo will be there as well. The 26th is a big day for ND recruiting...

 

[jason_h537]

Dont forget Amerson. Hopefully we can get Lueders and Hendrix to commit tomarrow and finish it off with a Moore, Amerson commitment.

 

[IrishAddiction]

He seems really excited about the visit. Said of the possability of committing on the visit "...they say you just know when your on campus. So Im just waiting to get that feeling." Very nice articlie on him i found, link below. Also talks about Shembo.

I really like coach Brown.

I really like coach Brown.

Nice quote in the Mike Frank article

I'll also get to hang out with coach Brown. I really like coach Brown. We talk every week, and we e-mail each other all the time. I really feel comfortable with him.

Some day soon we'll have to recruit against Corwin Brown, when he is a head coach somewhere.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Hopefully thats not for a while.

 

[jason_h537]

With all this coach in waiting BS going around, I say we name him next. Corwin is a man, this guy will be a great coach. I just hope if he does leave he gets a good job. With the exception of Randy Shannon, most black coaches have to suck it up at Miami (OH), and Buffalo.

Well, guys like Ty Willingham and Karl Dorrell set the African-American race back 30 years LOL.

P.S. My 2 favorite teams, ND and UCLA, had those 2 clowns as head coaches. Oh the horror. Not good times. And UCLA hired Dorrell after Ty had that great 1st year with ND, and he was basically Ty's clone. In other words, he sucked ass.

Back to the topic, hope Moore's visit is going well!...

 

[jason_h537]

I didnt want to bring those two up. Like you i also have love for UCLA. Aggghhhhh i cant believe i didnt get in

 

[The Polish Irishman]

Yeah Bruh.!
Im Out Here Now.. Its Tight Already.
But Ima Take The Tour Tomorrow.


Moore wrote this on C. Martin's facebook page last night. Martin had or is recruiting Moore.

 

[IrishInFl]

I like that he wrote Ima. Like Ima firin ma lazor!

Me too! UCLA said no to me; I think they actually laughed at my application ha ha. But USC recruited me hard, sending me things every week, and I got in, but thank God I said no (I switched my major to education in college, and I didn't need 6 figure loans on a teacher's salary). Went to a state school and I'm cool wit it.

As for Moore, he and Shembo are on campus, but no Amerson, as he couldn't make it...

 

[BGIF]

... Martin had or is recruiting Moore.

For UNC, LSU, or did Mom remind him, "You recruit only for ND or your Juco back here."?

 

[jason_h537]

Would love a Moore commit. get the Fauria taste out my mouth

 

[jason_h537]

Rumor goin round that Moore will commit July 11th. Checkin out some sites for confirmation. Don't hold me to this, just passin on what i read.

You may care to reconsider those words considering his alledged infraction.

I wasn't very optimistic about LBs in this class considering the last two classes. He would be a nice addition.

Yeah, outside of Barr (who might not even play LB), i didn't think we would get a solid LB this class. KInda reminds me of a more athletic Toryan Smith.

Think its legit

High School OT.com - N.C. State, Duke on Moore's shortlist; announcement date set

Gotta be optimistic with quotes like this

This past weekend, Moore visited Notre Dame and came away impressed.

“It was nice, and I enjoyed it a lot,” he said. “I wanted to find a little bit more about them, and now I feel like I know enough about them to make a decision.”

Beat me to the punch. And that was the quote that stuck out to me, about knowing enough to make a decision.

The interesting thing about this, is that in another article I read he said when he commits he'll still take a few official visits (looked, can't find the article right now), which flies in the face of what CW preached about being a solid commit. He did not say that in this article though, so maybe he'll be solid to whoever he commits. I like where we stand though...

 

[roto-stud]

irish ill. twitter reports K Moore down to final three... NC St., South Carolina and Notre Dame... will make choice on 11 July 09...

 

[jason_h537]

Yup, read some boards that say he already commited to Weis and is just making it public. Hope their right.

 

[OCIrish]

Me too!!

 

[WabashFalcon]

Man... he's like a bonus buck. Didn't really need him, but glad you found it in your pocket.
