'12 NY DT Jarron Jones (Notre Dame Signed LOI)

[BeauBenken]

2 wont be enough. I would like to see 2 stud inside linebackers in next years class

If you've seen what Diaco said about Grace, you would feel better about our current situation.

Not to mention Niklas is gonna be a STUD- it's in his DNA. And if Williams ever gets it, he's going to be even better. We're in pretty great shape, at least at OLB. ILB, now that's a position just begging for someone to come in and take ownership of. At least we get one more year of Manti!

i think grace is going to be pretty good...he just looks like a football player and is from a school where that's basically the be all end all. if he can do it physically we're set b/c he's got the head for it.

Is this done for a reason or do people not know you can delete posts? It's not a big deal obviously but I wonder.

On the topic of the thread, if we land Arik the defensive line depth would start looking scary.. No disrespect but the days of relying solely on John Ryan are over, for at least the next 4 years.

I actually didn't know you can delete your own posts. I thought you had to be a mod, so when I want to take something down, I just put a '.'

Here's what I wrote though, and eventually deleted because it's really not news:

I like how when I get introduced I hear 3 kids yell "overrated" all of em wearing notre dame appearell

 

[BeauBenken]

You can delete a post?

WTF?! 3 guys in ND gear yelled "overrated" at Jarron?! I sense rival fanbase trolls.

 

[phork]

News to me...

 

[t3hjc]

Who the hell would yell overrated at him? That's almost beyond my comprehension.

I really hope so. But the incredible stupidity some people have is mind boggling.

I know, seriously. It doesn't make any sense.

 

[Domina Nostra]

Just trolls.

 

[tadman95]

Amazing what people will say or do to 16/17/18 year old kids.

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

Seriously, people go overboard.

sidenote: When you go to the edit function there is an option to delete the post.

 

[SirStrutsAlot]

not a chance in hell a real ND fan shouts out "overrated" to jarron jones. definitely some trolls.

 

[gkIrish]

Everyone calm down. He retweeted about 5 different people telling him those kids weren't real nd fans. He understands

 

[NYMIKE6]

JJ just let some of us IE members find out where those lil' fake ND b@$*@&ds are we will straighten them out for you.... After all we are coast to coast our reach is limitless.

 

[Buster Bluth]

\.... After all we are coast to coast our reach is limitless.

Hawai'i?

 

[NYMIKE6]

Hawai'i?

I don't think he was in Hawaii, but for our Cali members it just a short row....lol

 

[NDPhilly]

per II he appeared to be nursing some leg injury today. In 1v1 he got beat by scUM commit Kyle Kalis but then Jarron proceeded to beat consensus 5 DJ humphries. Needs to get more physical and does not strike Sampson as being in the same class as Lynch or Tuitt coming out of HS after watching them last year.

 

[BabyIrish]

I have full confidence that this kid will be a beast for us on the d line with the rest of the studs we have brought in.

Agreed between Longo and young Tuitt and Lynch, i'm sure their swag is quite infectious.

 

[NDPhilly]

I think he would be better at OL then DL. I dont think he has the meanstreak of a DL.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

It's good to have a mean streak on the oline also. But, I know what you mean, I think he is a better OT prospect.

 

[Pa Golden Tate Fan]

Is he related to the UFC Fighter Jon Jones? Im sure he can get a mean streak from him.

 

[rtrn2glory]

not worried about this guy at all...huge ceiling.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

^This is true!

 

[NYMIKE6]

you can never have enough athletic big bodies.

 

[NDPhilly]

He will find a spot and be a stud. I definetely believe that. I think that if he spent his HS career at OT and not DL their is a good chance that he is a 5

 

[rtrn2glory]

very possible...he gives us flexibility in our recruiting to go hard after defensive line studs with him easily being able to flip to O line.

although, i have little doubt he will learn to play with fire hanging around guys like lynch and tuitt

 

[ResLife Hero]

Assuming we keep Decker, I'd like to see this guy stay on the DL. One thing a 3-4 needs is a big front 3, and if he can continue to fill out and develop his athleticism, he could be a HUGE asset as we try to develop a line capable of going toe-to-toe with the SEC and other national powers. Not to mention, if he blew up Humphries, the kid obviously can ball.

Not many people are in their class...
