According to Gerard Martinez, Kyle Prater confirmed he is 100% Trojan and has ended the recruiting process.

Hes the Trojan admin so of course there is reason to doubt with other rumors suggesting hes going to Notre Dame in the coming days, but if Stoops is hired here at Notre Dame. We'll see how committed he is on February 3rd.

Yup, loved his visit and told them he's solid. His parents loved it to, and Prater got along great with his future teammates. He'll be enrolling in January...it's a done deal...

I wouldn't want a guy who would completely go back on their word like that, it makes their word unbelievable even as a teammate.

Happens all of the time. Kid gets excited during a visit and then pops a commitment. Shaq Evans did the same thing when he visited USC.

i think this prater matters if tate leaves floyd and him could be rediculous throwing to a 6 3 and 6 5 receiver as a quaterback thatd be a dream

I care about prater because it's USC and we have to defend him for 4 years. Kid's a beast. Who's going to cover him?

College football: Local ND recruits Lombard, Rees say they're still going to South Bend; Prater contacted by Kelly but sticks with USC -- chicagotribune.com

By Mike Helfgot Special to the Tribune

Kelly also contacted Proviso West receiver Kyle Prater over the weekend. Prater, the top-ranked receiver in the country by Rivals, announced his intention to attend USC last week for the second time.

Prater made an official visit to Notre Dame in late November while Weis was on the hot seat.

"He is going to stay strong on the commitment unless something changes," said Johnny Prater, Kyle's father.

"Unless something changes".....way to stand strong there, so if he changes his mind, his undies, the wind blows differently.... maybe wishful thinking on my part, I am sure he means w/ the sc coaching staff, but this quote still leaves it open for Kyle to switch.

I read it the same way.

There might be some unrest if their offensive coordinator goes back to the NFL this year...

Since Prater is an EE does anyone know when the latest he could change his mind would be? I'm guessing even if the OC is leaving, USC won't make it public until after NSD and even its before then it would almost certainly be after Prater is enrolled.

Prater is still talking to ND, but word is he has not been approved to early enroll. Gotta think he is a Trojan at this point.

I believe the NCAA likes to phrase it as "lacks institutional control." haha

LOL... I spent about 5 minutes trying to think of that phrase... then said f' it... and said "program out of control." LOL

Guess it's a phrase that the NCAA can't spit out with regard to USC either... wait till Swarbrick is running the NCAA.

God, I hope Kelly can work the magic with Prater this weekend. It seems like Prater wants to go to ND but has been looking for a reason to finally do so. I think with the coaching situation finally settled, things could be looking up on the Prater front. Huge weekend if he is indeed visiting with Cooper.
