'15 FL ATH Dexter Williams (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[tko]

Loy and Wiltfong just doubled down with their belief about Williams to ND

Splitting kings in a drunken state is never good.

 

[PANDFAN]

Potential game changer. If only there were a flowchart that neatly explained whether we should start tweeting recruits like Cane fans...

hahaha...the amount of grown men on these kid's jocks is sickening

 

[IrishLion]

Haha nice. I didn't see this, but just posted this in the National Recruiting thread.

 

[Irish YJ]

This is where I'm at.

You're in the group chat?

Robbing from Peter to pay Paul is not softening the blow IMO

This is an absolutely terrible idea, considering long term CB depth is just as bad as (if not worse) than RB and Carlisle/Prosise can play as an "emergency back" this year if everyone got hurt.

 

[Irish Fam]

I just don't understand the dire need to have a fourth rb on the depth chart next year. In an emergency, Carlisle could somewhat easily slide back there.

I understand the concern about 2016 RB depth, but I can't believe we will lose both Folston and Bryant next year. Maybe Folston, but I even doubt that.

Additionally, as mentioned previously by others, RB is one of only a few positions where a true freshman can step in and be very effective. There are endless examples of this so I won't waste anyone's time listing them.

At worst, we bring back a fifth year that we will have otherwise let walk, and bring in a couple big time backs next year. The depth chart will be inviting, and if we have the type of season we all expect to have, convincing a couple immediate impact guys to join should be much easier than this year (see 2013 recruiting class).

I assume it's more of the same ("we still expect Williams to be Irish, etc.), but just in case...

 

[koonja]

Farley's going to end up playing two ways at RB and safety next year and win the Heisman.

Yup. Status quo. "Should" be ND despite late pressure from Miami.

 

[koonja]

What's the name of the Oregon commit at RB who loved ND but we didn't recruit him? Lol at us.

 

[Irish#1]

This is an absolutely terrible idea, considering long term CB depth is just as bad as (if not worse) than RB and Carlisle/Prosise can play as an "emergency back" this year if everyone got hurt.

I don't know if it's a terrible idea, but I would certainly move Carlisle to RB before anyone else.

 

[IRISHFAN76]

What time and stations r covering. Esb Farrar and Dexters announcement please and thankyou

 

[irishfan]

Coleman has pretty electric film at RB, but he just moves like the perfect CB.

I'd almost prefer not to see Procise get moved to RB cause I think he's too talented in the Slot. I honestly think he would push TF for time there, but he has too much potetential in the Slot. If we have the numbers to bring Carlisle back for a 5th year, he is he the no brainer IMO. We need 4 RBs on the depth chart. Last thing we need is an injury to TF or GB and suddenly Adams (good film, needs to bulk up) is our #2.

 

[PANDFAN]

What time and stations r covering. Esb Farrar and Dexters announcement please and thankyou

noted all of them in upshot for rest of class thread

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

Who cares.. Malik will take 30% of the carries anyway.

 

[NDdomer2]

if dexter sticks with his commitment or not, Kelly is going to need Folston or a combo of Folston/Bryant to have a great year next year to start showing RBs what they need to see for ND to be attractive.

 

[IrishInFl]

I had a dream last week that Dexter picked Miami. Dexter Williams to Miami confirmed. Btw, I really did dream that. Sad, eh?

 

[tko]

if dexter sticks with his commitment or not, Kelly is going to need Folston or a combo of Folston/Bryant to have a great year next year to start showing RBs what they need to see for ND to be attractive.

and to save his job.

 

[Ironman8]

Who would ND fire BK for?

 

[tko]

Who would ND fire BK for?

Jon Gruden

 

[Ndaccountant]

Who would ND fire BK for?

Not as pertinent as how far is ND willing to go for football greatness?

 

[Irishnuke]

If anyone watched Dexter, they should know he doesn't wind up in Miami.

 

[ND NYC]

if he's Irish, great!
if not, so be it.
its his choice and his alone.
we will be fine.
we are ND.

i'm done worrying about these types of situations...its exhausting and im to old for this shit.

 

[drake29]

Who would ND fire BK for?

They wouldn't fire him but if he loses another 4-5 games next year his seat will be hot.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Who would ND fire BK for?

Mack Brown

 

[#1rish]

Sampson tweeted out an article on Dexter about 20 minutes ago, and some guy replies to him on what his gut feeling is. Pete responds with "I'm not betting against Tony Alford."

 

[ThePiombino]

Mack Brown

Well that would fill that TX void lol

 

[Irish8248]

If anyone watched Dexter, they should know he doesn't wind up in Miami.

Solid play on words
