'13 IN ATH Jaylon Smith (Notre Dame Man & Graduate)

[Bogtrotter07]

Seriously, how fast is this guy?

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

6-3 220 with a 4.55 forty.. yes please.

Edit: I randomly researched Anthony McDonald and found that Scout.com actually had him at 6-3 220 with a 4.55 forty out HS too.. shame.

 

[WhoDeyIrish]

40 times are a joke.

 

[Ironman8]

To answer all of our speed questions, Jaylon just ran a 4.44 at the best of the Midwest combine. Yikes.

Should be our #1 target.

I would agree 10000%. Kelly and Coach D should be the only to recruiting this young man

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

@AllenTrieu: Jaylon Smith ran a 4.44, played end in 1-1s and wasn't stopped and just made a leaping, spinning INT in 7-7a

 

[NDPhilly]

should be our #1 prospect. That speed and size for a HS junior is amazing.

 

[Grahambo]

I'd like to see his cone drill time and vertical.

I don't dismiss 40 times like some do nor do I hinge everything on them like others do. I like them but they are a little further down on my list.

Should be #1 on the defensive side for sure and probably Top 3 overall. I think they really need to focus on OL and RB this period.

If we cannot keep Jaylon Smith in state and to Notre Dame the 2013 class will be a fail in my opinion.

 

[Irish Fam]

I don't know about calling the whole class a fail based on missing on one kid... seems a little irrational

Plus his brother goes to OSU.

Yea... it's a little more complicated than that.

 

[NDPhilly]

Per II visiting March 3 and we seem to be in good shape.

Could he.....maybe.....in the right atmosphere....with the right people around....get the feeling....to commit?

 

[Irish Fam]

yes

A couple of weeks ago, a poster on the 4HL board said he coached against Smith last and after the game he said, "Go Irish" to which Smith replied, "heck, yeah, "GO Irish."

 

[TerryTate]

March 3rd appears to be a second Jr. Day

Hunter Bivin
Evan Lisle
Jaylon Smith

 

[NDhoosier]

Could he.....maybe.....in the right atmosphere....with the right people around....get the feeling....to commit?

 

[rtrn2glory]

Lisle should get an offer that day too...with two targets on the o line to michigan we need to go after him hard before urban starts to.

hopefully elmer can make it that weekend to help seal the deal for these three guys maybe.

I respectfully disagree.

 

[Irishnuke]

With his brother being at OSU I don't see him committing so early. Hope I'm wrong though.

 

[rtrn2glory]

this years odenigbo...imo

 

[Irish Fam]

this years odenigbo...imo

explain please...

 

[DillonHall]

this years odenigbo...imo

EDIT: same question as Irish Fam

 

[GBdomer]

Odenigbo and Jaylon Smith are two completely different players. Not this years Odenigbo imo. This years Noor Davis maybe. That would make more sense to me.

 

[STLDomer]

Either way we need him more than anyone else. him and Councell would be the only true DOGs on the roster with Danny Spond being kinda able to play it too

 

[rtrn2glory]

explain please...

i meant in terms of my want...my bad.

i want him as bad as i wanted odenigbo from last year.

 

[beryirish]

Ha I hope it's not the same outcome then..

 

[rtrn2glory]

me too

 

[Zbi]

The class would not be a total fail. I think that we have to keep the best talent from Indiana in-state.
