Surprised there wasn't a thread on him already. He is very high on OSU but the ND Jr Day (where he was offered) visit made a huge impression on him. Very impressed with this kid, gave a really eloquent and mature interview with ISD after his visit. Hope we can beat out OSU for his services.

There is a lot of talent in Ohio this year especially at the DE and OL positions! Hopefully ND lands some of them.

We have around 20 at the moment. Ohio and the mid-west are loaded down with talent. We should end up with our fair share in this area.

Just listened to an interview he gave on II. Sounds very intelligent, and he was very impressed with ND's 98% graduation rate. According to McMullen he'd play defensive end or defensive tackle.

Currently has ND ranked 3rd or 4th, behind OSU, Nebraska, and maybe Oregon

OSU board was saying that they probably could only take two D-line this year.

this kid's been hyped up pretty big time in Ohio since his sophomore year...plays with another stud (Latroy Lewis on the other side) and they form a very dynamic combination...we seemed to really impress him last weekend, it would be nice to get him back on campus soon.

this guy is a stud, him and the other DE lewis make a for a pretty difficult match up at the highschool level(both 6-6+). one positive for ND is they play in a 3-5 stack instead of a 4-3 so he used to playing the odd front 4 technigue.

Per ESPN:

It's still early in the process, but ESPNU 150 Watch List DE Greg McMullen of Ohio already has a top three in a very specific order: "I like Ohio State and Nebraska with Notre Dame creeping up," McMullen told Bill Kurelic of Bucknuts.com. "I really liked Notre Dame so they are about to move up into the top three. Ohio State, Nebraska, Notre Dame, I like all three. But Ohio State has the upper hand because I'm in Ohio."

McMullen had also previously indicated interest in Oregon, but the Ducks do not appear to have offered yet. Interestingly, he told Josh Helmholdt of Rivals.com that he doesn't plan to expand his list significantly. "I think it is kind of ridiculous to have 10 or 15 different colleges when in the back of your mind you know you're not going to go to a few of those schools -- a waste of their time and a waste of my time," McMullen said. "It's a lot less drama and a lot less stress."

Ohio State has made McMullen a priority, and that carries a lot of weight in the Buckeye State. Kurelic predicts: "I still feel like he is Ohio State's to lose, and I don't see the Bucks missing out."

For the most part kids growing up in Ohio want to be a Buckeye so can't fault the kid for that if that's his decision...really tough to pull kids out of the state if the Buckeyes want him

I understand that but there are so many talented DE's in Ohio this year that OSU can't sign them all. Ohio is stocked with talent in the 2012 class.

Very true...with that being the case it almost turns into a first come first serve with OSU's limited schollys this year.

Would still be shocked if he went anywhere other than OSU. Only chance is that Ohio St gets a few better D Linemen & stop recruiting the kid and we are there to swoop in.

Never know, but I wouldn't get our hopes up.

Committed to Nebraska.

Says he will still talk to ND and possibly visit for a game though.

Will we land a DE this year, Ironman?


*shakes Ironman8 vigorously*

Is Ironman8 the board Magic Eightball?
