Its because of the weather!!!!!

Congrats to Malik.

Our QB model: through enough mud at the wall, something has got to stick, right?

With Golson, Kiel and now Zaire, we are set at the QB position !

think he was a little annoyed with his other top schools Bama and OSU and how they handled his recruitment, then goes into ND and feels comfortable

It was my 34th birthday yesterday so I'm claiming these commits as a very good birthday gift but I'm feeling greedy and hoping some more gifts are coming still just got a little delayed.

Ha it's my birthday tomorrow. Kelly got me some nice birthday presents.

Wouldn't be surprised to see one of our QBs transfer (Hendrix definitely if he doesn't win the job this year), and this is a precaution.

Kelly likes to take one QB per year. The kids know what they are getting in to when they commit here.

This is unbelievable! I'm going to run out of Jameson to celebrate. Best recruiting weekend for Notre Dame in my lifetime.

Pretty athletic. Does he play any defense, like cornerback?

Either way I'm happy to get a 247 top 150 prospect.

true, but after next year, we should have 5 QB's with 2+ years of eligibility left

Malik - 4
Gunner - 4
Golson - 3
Hendrix - 2
Rees - 2

with Rees having 2, I'm assuming he won't be playing next year and thus saving a year for a red-shirt.. or can't you red-shirt after you've already played?
This is also assuming Golson starts and Gunner doesn't waste a year of eligibility

part of his recruitment was that he wanted to go somewhere he felt he would defiantly play QB and not be moved

Bottom line is that it is a good problem for us to have. Especially because it elevates the competition during practice

oh I absolutely agree.. was just pointing out the eligibility left for the QB's because someone said one might transfer, and really IMO Golson is the only one that might, but it's also my opinion he wins the job this year and obviously stays.. either way, love grabbing a QB who is meant for an offense like this.. cannot wait for the QB competition to push someone to be a stud, because we all know we need someone to step up and the QB play of the last 2 years isn't going to cut it

FANTASTIC NEWS! What a day. I still think 2 QB's transfer in 2012. (Rees and either Golson/Kiel) I would hate losing Kiel or Golson but Kelly appears to be able to land whatever QB he wants. It will be nice when this qb situation sorts itself out.

Welcome aboard, Malik!

I hope not! We need to bring in one of those RBs!

100% agreed. Things are looking pretty good for Green. He's the one I want!

Josh Helmholdt of Rivals apparently has spent lots of time covering Malik. His analysis is that this is the closest qb he's seen to vick in the last 10 years.
