Bottom line...are you a troll or are you here for discussion. If you're here for discussion - we welcome it. If you're here just to gloat and brag (which it seems as if you're doing, stating Yuri will enroll at Cal as well as Arik), then we'll just be deleting your posts and banning you. This isn't a smack-talk site. Go to the Rivals national board or Scout or ESPN for that. We're here to talk Irish football and college football.

(And anyway, as bad as ND has been lately, Cal has nothing on us. That's saying a lot.)

Thanks in advance for the link...

Damn it, NDinLA, when I saw you posted on here I was really looking for the 'west coast' inside scoop on Armstead.

Information only, no gloating or trolling. I made no suggestion re: Arik other than press a conference is scheduled for Monday. I can't control if other people read into that positively or negatively.

Posting controversial information and refusing to cite a source is text book trolling. Even if it's just a well-informed poster on a Cal board, say so. Otherwise, you'll continue to be branded a troll.

Seems pretty irrelevant if there is a presser or not, his presence will be a dead givaway. Unless he tries to sneak his 6-8, 300lb body onto whatever campus unnoticed of course.

On a separate note, ND has secured Seal Team Six for a special California retrieval assignment for delivery to SB by noon Tuesday. Super hush, hush though. Don't tell anyone. I can't reveal my source or else I would have to kill you. (That should absolve me of being labeled a troll, right?)

RT @johnbreech: Source: prospect Arik Armstead has enrolled at Cal & will begin classes Tue LINK

As we learned from Ishaq's recruitment last year, this isn't dispositive. Lax commented that Arik has also sent in his paperwork to EE at ND; this could merely be a reflection of that process at Cal.

 

[Irish2155]

Is he in ND's directory?

 

[magogian]

Is he in ND's directory?

Nope.

 

[Grahambo]

Who else is an EE at Cal?

 

[NDTampa]

zach kline? I think thats his name

 

[Rack Em]

Nope.

He's in Cal's. See below. But, like Whiskey said, this doesn't mean much at this point.

[sharksamardzija8345]

sure would like our chances better if he was listed in ND's directory as opposed to Cal's

Correct. Last year Ishaq was in PSU's directory and not ND's, and a lot of people read way too much into that. Being listed or not listed is no solid indication of where Arik is going to commit.

 

[Grahambo]

To be fair, the flip side to that was he was on his way to PSU until Diaco showed up so if Diaco didn't show up, maybe Ishaq isn't at ND.

 

[ohara831]

I hope this is not true. After spending all day at a boring CLE, I come home to this news. Maybe I'm still at that seminar, fell asleep and this is just a nightmare.

Doesn't look like Arik Armstead to Cal is official... RT @arikarmstead: some people are just retarded

Yeah, I think the last part is correct. I mean odds all point to Cal without Armond coming to ND... so it's a safe bet for people out there to "break" news (a la Epitome). From last I heard, he certainly hadn't committed to Cal before going on this OV to Auburn, but he has filed his EE paperwork at both Cal and ND.

I beleive that tweet is in response to USC fans trashing him..

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Correct. I don't know why Jason thinks that comment by Arik is in reference to people assuming he's committed to Cal. He still hasn't addressed that directly.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

This article supports the theory that Arik showing up in Cal's directory doesn't mean much.

@BryanDFisher:

Arik and Armond Armstead are visiting Auburn this weekend. Which is weird if Arik is enrolled and Armond can't transfer there.

Fisher covers CFB for CBS.

 

[Anchorman]

Any chance we get Armond but not Arik? Seems like Arik probably is independent and/or not going to ND if he's going to announce Sunday morning and Armond gets here to visit on Sunday.

 

[Rocky2820]

To be fair, the flip side to that was he was on his way to PSU until Diaco showed up so if Diaco didn't show up, maybe Ishaq isn't at ND.

Yeah, I'm not suggesting that Arik is going to commit to ND or is not going to commit to Cal, nor what might need to happen for either of those to occur. My point is simply that his presence in Cal's directory is no indication whatsoever that he has committed there at this point. He very well may, or may not... who knows. But don't base anything off his inclusion in their directory.

 

[aubeirish]

Diaco will probably sneak into luggage compartment of Armond's plane back from SB to Cali. Then, make his way to the Armstead's to wake up Arik at 4am on monday. Then, at 4:30am we should have a new commit. This all sounds so familiar.
