Receiving interest from the staff
Powell Hoping To Impress Irish

Not a strong offer list at this point but is receving interest from Arizona, Auburn, California, Florida, Nebraska, UCLA, and USC as well.

Notre Dame came to my school when we were having spring ball,” said the Nevada running back. “I believe it was the running back coach (Tim Hinton) who talked to my coach and told him that I am very high on their list and they’re thinking about taking three running backs this year. They told him they’re going to go back and watch my film and then they'll see how I do in this camp coming up in Fresno. If I do well there, they said I could possibly get an offer right on the spot.

I'm thinking the 3 possible RBs would manifest itself in the form of probably 2 true RBs (1 quick slasher and one bigger back) and then a swing type who can play both RB and slot.

Had a huge opening game against top 25 talent - granted Chaparral's top defender is being investigated and didn't play.

30 rushes for 304 yards; 34 receiving yards; 6 TD (5 rushing)

Maybe he'll get another look for an offer (along with Dieter)

We have a offer out to his teammate as well... Vegas is starting to put out good talent in football, more so in basketball tho

I think that I read that Ronnie Stanley (OT) was scheduled to visit ND for the USC game. Maybe Ronnie can bring his teammate Shaq Powell with him on the visit

ColinKSU · Aug 21, 2011

He looks funny in his Rivals profile photo.

That's all I got.

Legacy · Aug 22, 2011

Bishop G is ranked by SI.com in their Preseason poll as the 6th team in the nation. Their opponent, Scottsdale Chapparal, won state for the last two years in Arizona in the second largest division, 5A. Chapparal has Conor Brewer and Davonte Neal, was ranked #20 in the same preseason poll.

"Bishop Gorman continually ran Powell to the left side, behind 6-foot-6, 280-pound tackle Ronnie Stanley.

Powell even added an interception on defense after his fifth touchdown of the game.

Meanwhile, Chaparral's biggest offensive threat, senior receiver Davonte' Neal, was never a factor until it was too late."

Doing pretty solid against #9 Armwood right now on ESPN2. Not a total burner but he is well built and quick through the holes. Reminds me Remound Wright... who is still waiting on his offer....

Thanks for telling me what to watch tonight.

Bishop Gorman has the ND fight song. Sweet.

crzychris · Aug 26, 2011

For a guy with his measurables he is pretty physical. I think BP would have more points on the board if he had more than 12 carries.

calvegas04 · Sep 30, 2011

Big game tonight for Stanley and Shaquille Powell

No. 23 Servite versus No. 11 Bishop Gorman

Game will be on ESPNU at 7PM PST

Big23Head · Oct 3, 2011

Powell was named player of the game in the win over Servite.

Riddickulous · Oct 3, 2011

Him and David Smith are two players who I think could get late offers if we fail to pick up one of our remaining RB targets.

jonesman · Nov 29, 2011

This guy just got moved into the latest Rivals 250. So, he is now a four star recruit and also was named Nevada player of the year by ESPN. With ND losing out on Marshall and recruiting his teammate, wondering if ND gets in the mix with this kid???

OCIrish · Nov 29, 2011

I think they had damn well better.....if we end up with only 1 RB recruit this cycle, we've got issues.

But we just moved 2 WRs to RB. And neither are the power RB that Mahone is.

Wood
Riddick
Atkinson
Roberson (God willing)
McDaniel
Mahone

RB is not the issue it was 2 months ago.

Riddick was for Stanford only if I am correct. So Wood, Atkinson, McDaniel, Robberson, Mahone. Wood is the only proven back. We need another guy for future. BAD!

NDPhilly · Nov 29, 2011

Calm down we are I. Good shape with Russell.

News flash: none of these high school studs are "proven" either.

Had 3 TDs in the first half of the State Championship, and now appears to be on the bench as his team is up by 51 early in the 3rd quarter.

Here's a nice article on him. Definitely not a problem with grades if his offers are Vanderbilt and Duke.

Gaels’ Powell has big numbers, waits for recruiters to dial - Stories - ReviewJournal.com

If we only get Mahone, I would hope they put the full court press on for Ty Isaac.

Ty Isaac and Ryan Green are who I hope for. Elite power and Elite speed. Both very realistic.

Mahone is going to be a force from the get go.
The Bang Bang Notre Dame Gang is about to set the boyz get it!

GoldenIsThyFame · Dec 11, 2011

Committed to Duke.

Buster Bluth · Dec 11, 2011

Can't go wrong there.

DomerInHappyValley · Dec 11, 2011

Visited on the 9th and committed today.
Any possibility of flipping him?

Buster Bluth · Dec 11, 2011

I don't know how you can flip him when he hasn't even been offered.

When was Niklas offered?
I believe it was after his visit in January but I could be wrong.
