Entry Not Allowed

didn't realize he was in cbus this weekend.

anyone with access, it is greatly appreciated.

Chasey · Mar 23, 2014

Nothing much he just said that he got to talk extended with coach fickell and coach Meyer. Ohio State and Michigan will be in it for the long haul blah blah blah. He and his dad have more trips to plan blah blah blah. In other words it's the same article just a different school.

Luckylucci · Mar 27, 2014

It's between OSU, MICH, and ND for an April 12th visit. According to his father they are leaning towards South Bend. According to J.hemboldt at rivals. Also said that he wouldn't put Mich over ND and has them pretty equal right now. OSU will be in it until the end but doesn't believe he ends ups there. Bama is getting a visit and make a push but he doesn't think they will get in the top 5. Oklahoma is the sleeper here.

I take that as ND/Mich top two with OSU, Iowa, and Oklahoma off the pace. However, keep in mind that they take a lot of visits so this could change in the future, though I don't expect it to.

Thanks for the info. Do either of the other schools have spring games on that date? Seems like all things equal, I'd rather see some live football.

Sorry I spend so much time on IE at work, so I try to keep what I google at work to a minimum so I can't look it up.

ND's is the 12th not sure about UofM

dublinirish · Mar 27, 2014

OSU's spring game is april 12th also

Bogtrotter07 · Mar 27, 2014

I think that scum article in the allthingscunkbear thread tagged it as the 5th of April. But almost everything else was wrong in that article. Please refer to I-LAX critique.

GBdomer · Mar 27, 2014

Wilfong hinted today he could/should be in South Bend for the spring game.

Nice.

OCIrish · Mar 28, 2014

Would love to have him come for the spring game, and see some of the other recruits...... I have a feeling we end up with him, no info, just what my gut tells me at this point.

rtrn2glory · Mar 28, 2014

long way to go here. i see this one extending into the season with our game against ann arbor being important and the success of our defense under BVG. Hopefully we can keep coombs away from him from urban's team

IrishLax · Mar 28, 2014

Hilliard locked in for the 12th now. Great sign.

Ironman8 · Mar 28, 2014

Huge. So awesome he is coming back so quickly.

Cackalacky · Mar 28, 2014

That's our spring game right?

Yeah, chose to attend ours over OSU and Michigan. Was a three-way race for this visit. Good sign that we're currently in driver's seat.

Alabama is also going to get a look, so that might be another wildcard down the stretch.

Sooo.... hmm... I guess that's still good?

EDIT: this is what Wiltfong has said...

"The next two visits of the spring are locked in for the nation’s top outside linebacker Justin Hilliard.

Per his father Carl, the Cincinnati (Ohio) St. Xavier talent will take a visit to Alabama next weekend before traveling to Notre Dame on April 12 for the Irish’s spring game."

Cackalacky · Mar 28, 2014

So Alabama first then ND for spring game? I will take that.

Redbar · Mar 28, 2014

That sounds really good. Who is his primary recruiter? Is coach Kelly handling this one?

He has a very good relationship with Elston his primary recruiter. Also enjoyed his interaction with BVG last time on campus. BK isn't going to become too many guys primary recruiter until it's time to lock things up like with Nyles Morgan.

R100 LB Hilliard down to 10

Josh Helmholt makes it sound like Hilliard isn't locked in to the Spring Game, but that it's his most likely destination on April 12.

GreenSox04 · Mar 31, 2014

assuming that top 10 is in no order, but ill lie to myself and believe that it is.

Go ahead, no one will fault you.

With the exception of Iowa, his top ten is like the holy grail of college football.
