Per Jeff Baumhower IrishEyes:
Defensive tackle Bruce Gaston from St. Rita High School (Chicago, Ill.) is a primary recruiting target for Notre Dame and Gaston has the Irish as one of his final two schools.

If he doesn't choose Notre Dame I'll be pretty surprised. Good to add a little more help on the defensive line. We need to recruit some speed at outside linebacker and safety badly.

Gaston and Nix on the same day so that Irish Nation can sigh collectively all at the same time.

I really want Nix but I like this kid too so I hope they both join us. He's from the same school as Darius Fleming so I hope that this means that the kid is just as talented as his former teammate.

The golden ring is out there - who grabs it Gaston or Allen?

With all due respect (and it's a large "Now Due") to Mr. Tate, the ring within their grasp is brass, not golden. The gold leaf is applied the day one or the other, or both, steps on campus as a student. There IS a gold ring available upon graduation.

I have one (ND gold ring). The gold ring was a stand in for a gold helmet...ND is no carnival carousel... the supply room is runing out of them (gold whatevers) for 2010.

I thought the little hobbit destroyed the ring at the end of the movie before Liv Tyler sailed away to never never land. She still managed to look good with those pointy ears.

Waiting to hear from Kelly this week and then plan an official visit to ND to meet in person.

Also visited Wisconsin and rated it a 10 out of 10. Said he really was impressed and enjoyed it. Looks like Wisconsin is pressing for him and Beau Allen.

Will be visiting this weekend, per ISD. His dad said they will be there are 12:00 per Kelly's instructions, and they'll meet with Kelly at 2.

Kelly said he would be hosting recruits this weekend, but it was assumed it would be local kids that weren't big-time recruits, something all colleges do to keep the local h.s. coaches happy. But apparently Kelly has been working the phones (which is a shock, because all of the sky-is-falling people who obviously know what Kelly does every second of the day made us believe that Kelly is ignoring recruiting), and there are some verbals (Leuders, Lombard) and important recruits (Cooper might make it as well, and expect more names to trickle in) that will be in this weekend....

The timing is appropriate. It'd be a nice way to show the ND fanbase. I like it. Kelly's doing a lot of under-the-floor stuff that will pay dividens.

I am torn on this kid. Who would you want more, Gaston or Allen? I am leaning towards Allen but I would gladly take Gaston. We could definitely use another DT commit.

Why wouldn't you take both? We only landed Stockton last year, so a couple of more wouldn't hurt at all.

Time will tell of course, but based on BK's track record you are exactly correct! I was being sarcastic of course ... some Irish fans think that recruiting a 3* player is a sign that ND has lowered their recruiting standards and that the player is a "bust"! It's nescient thought to expect every recruit ND goes after has to be a 4 or 5* player. There has been plenty of good players that went into CFB as 2* and 3* recruits that did exceptionally well!

Per ISD on his visit with BK and the other recruits he noticed he was the only Non-committed person in attendance. He said he was very impressed with Kelly, considering he honestly didn't know much about him because he was at Cinci. He also said Darius Fleming really likes him and that he thinks ND will compete for a NC next year. Overall, a very good visit.

Seems promising from ND's perspective.
