Weis has shown freshman have an opportunity on his team. Meanwhile ND's RB corps are still longer on potential than they are on results.

There was a recent article on Urban Meyer's lack of success recruiting RBs. Something about his scheme and play calling may not be attractive to RBs with NFL aspirations.

How can anyone attack Urban's recruiting? His offense does fine with the backs he can recruit. (Chris Rainey, Jeffrey Demps, Percey Harvin). Plus he recruits so phenomenal with so many other positions it seems silly.

But, with Florida out of the equation for James, that really helps our cause. He would be a great pickup for RB for 2010.

What we are saying is that TRUE RBs do not really want to go to Florida. In a spread option team, you take two steps forward and pray that you get the football. You will be lucky to get fifteen touches a game... something you do not want if you are a HS showcased RB.

I believe Alford is helping in James recruitment but yeah Polian is responsiblr for alot of guys. To his credit he always gets us high 4 and 5 star players though

Wrong! He actually came from The School of Rock. I hear Jack Black was an instructor.

Jordan James UW Official Visit

Jordan James UW Official Visit

9/8 Per Greg Biggins

James, Rowland impressed by Washington - ESPN

Jordon James (Corona, Calif.) took his first official visit to Washington over the weekend ...

"It was a good visit, I really enjoyed myself there," James said. "The campus is great, it's a beautiful place and the city of Seattle fits me well because it's so laid back and I was real comfortable there.

"Keith Price was my host and he was cool, I got along well with the all the players there actually. Overall, I thought it was a great visit and I can definitely see myself at Washington for the next four years of my life."

James' next visit will be to Cal (Oct. 3) followed by Notre Dame (Oct. 17). In November he will visit Arizona and UCLA.

He'll announce his college choice at the Under Armour All-American game January 2.

UA All-American RB James leaves game with injury

UA All-American RB James leaves game with injury

Per ESPN

Jordon James' 75-yard touchdown run was about the only positive development in Corona's 45-14 loss to Mission Viejo. James, however, left the game in the second quarter with an injury and did not return, according to the Orange County Register.

A longshot before the weekend, ND moved way up on James' list. Free insider article from ESPN:

RB James enjoys South Bend - ESPN

Loved the visit, except for the cold (we're not used to 40 degrees LOL). He'd be a great get, although I still see him staying in the Pac 10. Hope I'm wrong though!

Out of all the rb's in this year's recruiting cycle, I really feel like this kid has the most game-breaking potential. One of those players who will take a play that needs 2 yards and break off for 45. I keep my fingers crossed for this kid

I like what he said about life after football - it's not just a 4 year commitment - but, a 60 year commitment that the Notre Dame family makes to you. Like I've said here many times: people all over the country ask me about my ND class ring, seemingly in awe - like a National Championship ring.... but, I never played, or it as no diamonds (shamrocks & dome on the side), and it's smaller, and.... but, anyway - with the interlocking ND... I wear it like a champion!!!!!!

Recruiting Thoughts


Jordan James – The California speedster has visits remaining, and he has a test score that he must improve. The latter is often times a deal breaker for the Irish. I do not like the odds of James ending up in South Bend.

Fans like to ignore that ND has stricter Admission Requirements.
