I thought I read Elijah wants to decide at the USAAAG. Doesn't he want to take two more visits?

Pretty good day for #NotreDame stuff. Shepard and Greenberry 100%, hearing Elijah Shumate and Yuri Wright both favor #Irish as well

If we got Shumate and Yuri it wouldnt just be great, but incredible. Bosco is going to produce top talent for years, especial next year, and having a connection with them would be soo huge.

The rumor I've heard is that he was ready to commit but opposing coaches are pushing him to wait and take his other OVs. Something about them assuming we're going to get smoked in our bowl game.

I didn't even think of it that way. Yeah, having arguably the best HS team in the nation as a pipeline school would be amazing.

Also heard that other coaches were "calling us out" about him playing RB if he comes to ND.

Basically they are saying we are just feeding Shumate stuff he wants to hear to get him to ND.

I hadn't heard we were recruiting him to play RB.

I don't know how offering RB would entice Shumate to come to ND since he's stated that he wants to play defense.

But Shumate prefers defense. So I'm not sure how us saying we like him at RB too is disingenuous.

The neg. recruiting usually starts to come out when the writing is on the wall. I think the other coaches just know he's Irish and they are throwing their proverbial "hail marys".

Rumors on a couple of sites from posters that Wright and Shumate are probably headed to ND. May or may not take another visit. Could commit at any time.

If Wright doesn't visit UM, that's huge. A Shumate, Wright commit would be huge.
