Very similar to Chris Martin in terms of measurables and athletic ability for a DE. Grades might be an issue

I am very good friends with the girls basketball coach at Beverly Hills high school, and a couple months ago we had some drinks with one of the football coaches at BH, who I've knows for a couple of years and used to give me the skinny on Shaq Evans (same league - always was a stud but a very emtional kid, but I digress).

Before Pete Carroll left, Townsend was pretty much a shoe-in for SC. When Carroll left, the coach told me Townsend was open to anyone. He told me back then all the schools that were recruiting him, and it was an impressive list of assistant coaches that had been to the school to check him out, including SC, UCLA, Miami, and yes, ND.

I got to see Greg one night up close and personal, and he has a great body for football already as only a junior. Kid has some really nice size as far as height and thickness, and that is without even doing weights yet (his dad won't let him). It's interesting that jason, in post 2 in this thread, compared him to Chris Martin, as that is the exact same gregarious personality Greg Townsend Jr has. Without getting into details, all I'll say is that I can predict with great certainty that he will not come to ND. I hope that you can can all laugh at me and say that I was wrong 9 months from now, but I doubt it...

Seems like a Pac-10 lock and Washington appears to be pulling all the stops. Love his highlight so i hope your wrong LA but i doubt it

LOL at tharinger, another wrong scoop from them. He told the SC Scout recruitniks that "committing to USC right now might be the best thing to do" and that his mom wants him to go to SC and also that he laughed and said he might have some major family problems if he didn't choose SC. And now his facebook status says "Big decision to be made real soon...I'm excited."

Personally, not sad to see him go...

Townsend never screamed RKG to me. Maybe I'm wrong though.
