'12 OK RB Barry Sanders Jr. (Oklahoma St. Transferee)

[Who'saWildManNow]

That's because nobody knows they have a football except for the other student athletes.

Seriously, its ridiculous! That fan base is pathetic.

 

[IrishLax]

This development shocks me. How much of this continued Stanford recruiting success is Polian?

 

[NoTrE_dAmE_BrAhH]

Per ESPN insider. he list his top 7 and they are Florida State, Alabama, Oklahoma State, Oregon, Notre Dame, Stanford and Auburn.
he went on to say he will be narrowing this list down to 5 and he will take all his offical visist before making a final decision

 

[Irish2015]

Surprising that we made his top 7

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I thought he was down to 4 already, and then he had a top 2, and now a top 7 that will go to a Top 5??

I'll put all my measly vbucks on Bama or F$U.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Stanford...

 

[Domina Nostra]

I have always thought we would be in the running because he seems like such a good kid and would fit in very well. (I know, I know, he is an OK St., I mean OU, I mean Alabama, I mean Stanford, I mean FSU LOCK).

Obviously the odds are against us, but you never know what might happen if we start winning again.

 

[IrishInFl]

Huh, that's funny. I don't see Texas anywhere...

 

[IrishSteelhead]

I always question the hunger of players with famous dads. Sanders was one of the most humble and hard-working guys ever, but I still can't help but wonder. Regardless, I would be very happy to have him, although it sounds like a longshot.

Jamie Newberg: "It's early for Sanders. Talked with his coach today and he said that this could go down to the wire. FSU, AL, AU, STAN and Ok-State. Two teams coming on STRONG are ND and Oregon. Right now I would watch out for the 'Noles. "

I'll take coming on strong!

That means there is a chance!

Most important aspect right there. There is plenty of time for these kids--not everyone finishes their recruiting before July.

 

[ACamp1900]

of all the big name schools on his list ND def. is highlighted as one of the top with potential to play early... if nothing else...

and as has been said, no better gentlemen on and off the field than his father... and sometimes apples roll pretty far from the tree... but not often.

 

[BleedBlue&Gold]

his daddy ran out of the spread in Detroit, even went as far to say" the fullback just got in the way". Barry, talk to your son, tell him it can be done. i think C. Wood rushes for 1,100 yards, if healthy!

If we land BSJr, it would have to be considered the biggest recruiting coup in some time...and that's including last year's epic Lynch saga. I just feel like he's the south's to lose. It would be a HUGE statement to teams like FSU and OSU that ND is for real. I would go so far as to put landing him up there with landing DGB.

I would go so far as to put landing him up there with landing DGB.

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa....

let's not get carried away here.

 

[Praytorian]

I agree with the WOAH as far as talent wise, but as far as position of need..... We do have some great WR talent lined up in this class at the moment.

Keith Marshall maybe, but not Barry Jr. Barry Jr. would be a helluva haul, but still considered somewhere between 5th to 8th best RB (depends who is garding them) in the 2012 recruiting class.

 

[supairishfan]

If we can't get Marshall take Barry Jr. This would be a huge statement and it would be awesome to have both.

Pipe dream

Update

College Football Rumors - Rumor Central - NCAA - ESPN

Focused primarily on four schools: Alabama, Florida St., Oklahoma St., and.....STANFORD. (I really don't like them.) Not an official list but everything around him is saying those four are tops.

 

[IrishLax]

Stanford is in a better position than people realize. It's going to be a heated battle between FSU, OSU and Stanford until the end.

 

[GBdomer]

Will be at Florida State this weekend.

 

[phork]

Confirmed as his final 4. NEXT.

 

[Irish2015]

Who's in his final four?

 

[Blaise]

Confirmed as his final 4. NEXT.

Exactly..... Move on to the next best RB and lets go get it

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Who's in his final four?

F$U, Ok St, Stanford, Bama

 

[Buster Bluth]

Hopefully he stays in Oklahoma.

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

I believe at this point, if he continues with that final four, he'll end up where his pops played at Ok. State.

 

[anarin]

so it was confirmed what we knew since february?

I'm shocked!!!
