Sounds like a risk on his part of some schools filling up. At what point after signing day to we decide on 5th years?

Yep it was risky for Pryor and Clowney to do that, they missed out on the school they wanted to go to.

Anyway, I think he ends up at tOSU

Pryor and Clowney, (during their commitment at least) >>>>> Neal. Theres a good chance by waiting that Neal has his offer list drop by a few top schools

Pryor and Clowney were both consensus 5*, #1 overall recruits. We are high on Neal for very good reason, but to compare his staus with that of Pryor and Clowney seems like quite a stretch.

You are right, but I also think the schools that are after Neal realize his talents and will not shut him out.

I hear what your saying but Neal is a special talent that's underrated and laughable that he's not a 5 star across the board.

He might be the fastest prospect in the class is an elite WR and a elite CB.

He's a top 10 prospect IMO because I see him as one of the top 2 or 3 CB's and as top 5 or 6 WR.

No worse than 25% as he has officials scheduled for Ohio State, Arkansas, and Hawaii. Maybe even 33.3333333% since I doubt he would ever go to Hawaii. Now personally I'm cautious to be optomisitc at this point so I'd say 50%.

Its a two team race from what Im getting. Not really "earth shattering". I feel like ND getting the first visit is GREAT in this case. It sets the bar for his other visits. The fact that Meyer and his father have a long standing relationship definitely hurts ND, but ND can make up for it in many areas. Both schools can offer PT and both schools have a bright future. As we all know and count on (which i think is overrated to a point) is the ND education. I think its overrated in the aspect that is the excuse on why we dont get a player or why ND fans dismiss kids who don't pick ND. Education is second to none. But at the sametime that is why ND hasn't been relevant for 20 years. ND has made adjustments to who they let in, but to win in the 2012 NCAA game you have to take some chances on kids. With the setup ND has for its players educationally and socially there is not reason why ND shouldnt take a chance on kid with character issues/suspect grades. Not saying Davonte is that kid because he is the opposite, but sometimes talent is questionable. Not saying I want Will Hill's but its time to get aggressive!!


ps. I am hearing great things on some "talented" kids.

Straight.

And now is not the time lol. Im not into stealing the kids moment or starting rumors to only have a "social media" outburst on them on twitter and facebook lol.

On NSD you will be very entertained with this class by the potential that it will hold from top to bottom. If ND can sign Nelson or Davonte all the pieces are there for 2013 run
