You're a stronger man than I am then. I start to hyperventilate if I don't get my self imposed daily dosage of Irish Envy.

 

[JughedJones]

Why are you guys so sure that Prestwood will be back ?

Well, it's kinda just wishful thinking, but he IS coming for an official in December with Lynch (via Momma Lynch)

And Rudy just said he'll be back.

I wish for the death of Urban Liar.

Go to Irish Sports Daily, thiers a article about him still being in it for Notre Dame. You are right though, he does like FSU and Florida.

Thanks for the info. Maybe the visit with Aaron will solidfy and re-confirm his initial mind. But reality is he may not want to be so far away from home and that is ok, and all of us here will wish him the best of luck. FSU would be alright with me as well as someone posted above..., I would hate to lose this young man to Florida though.

His high-school coach also seems to really like Notre Dame and was shocked when Jordan de-committed. There is a long way to go in the process but for him to de-commit instead of just taking more visits holds up a red flag to me. The coach also brought up that distance away from home may be a real strong factor. It's a lot for a young adult to go through. If he takes his visits to Florida State and Florida and has not committed before his visit back to Notre Dame for the banquet, I like our chances with Momma Lynch involved.

we've heard his before though, it would be great to get Prestwood back because he has such huge potential but its hard to imagine after someone decommits. I trust u know more than us on this issue but not too confident

Top ACC, SEC and CONFERENCE USA news, opinion and analysis.

It debunks the legend of Urban Meyer the"Offensive Genius".
Basically says he is a great recruiter and has a great eye for Offensive coordinators.
But, he is not the Spread Guru.

My attitude if a player de commits he had his chance the offer is not longer on the table. Mack Brown plays his cards right and loads on talent year after year without all of this de committing hoopla.

Mack Brown runs a completely different program than Notre Dame does. There are many many players Mack Brown can get that we can't. When somebody is smart and good, ND has to do what it can to get them.

Amen. Us and Stanford. Standby for a fight.

Kelly can’t publicly talk about the decommitment of Florida offensive tackle Jordan Prestwood, but he was asked generally about how he handles such instances.

“I’ve told our staff unless I see a letter of intent, you need to keep recruiting him,” he said. “There’s so many shifting and moving pieces out there that I’m not tripping over that.”

ISD: ND, BK Ready To Go Written by Christian McCollum Thursday, 14 October 2010 17:57

You know what? One of the strongest impressions I get, and things I like best about BK and his assistants, is how much they care about the young men that play for them. I think this is true of all the young men they recruit, prior to the first offer. The Irish coaching staff probably asks more of its players, and probably provides them with more tools for development, and they base this on an incredibly strong, highly functional relationship with their student athletes.

This is why the statistics on Kelly’s player development are through the roof; also, this is why Kelly expresses the sentiment that recruiting is an ongoing process until the student athlete is enrolled in the university and putting on pads. What (healthy, functional) relationship, where trust building is key, do you know of where one party issues a “my way or the highway” ultimatum, early in the process, before either party can enter into an official agreement? Isn’t the first point of an actual agreement where either party has an obligation to honor on NSD?
