'16 SC CB Nick McCloud (Notre Dame Grad Transfer)

[Denny]

Do we need to open up a scholarship now?

If Assaf and Grunhard are counted, and we get Speights, then we will be at 90. So yes.

 

[Luckylucci]

Assaf and Grungard were Spring schollies only.

Great get. What does that mean.

 

[rtrn2glory]

I would imagine it means they got their spring semester paid for now they're back on the books starting in the summer?

Hopefully this ends up like the Cody Riggs situation, but with a true #1 corner

He doesn't need to be "#1" per say, just needs to be able to contribute at a minimum, but hopefully be our starting boundary guy. Bracy can play field, and Crawford can play Nickel. Hopefully the youngens can get some quality PT behind those three as well so we're even stronger next year.

it will shake out....we always have 1-2 go on medical, i know there is 1 currently that has considered putting name in portal(don't worry, they haven't done much on field so far) and when you have a log jam at certain positions and incoming freshman expected to jump you it will cause a transfer

Nice pick up. This will give our younger guys an extra year to develop.

Speculation time!

Yes. This is how I see it. McCloud boundary, Bracy field and Crawford nickel. It also mean DJ Brown can stay at safety instead of having to move back to corner due to numbers.

Just realized this dude is from my hometown

 

[IrishFanJMercy]

Does he come back for another year?

 

[Irish YJ]

Does he come back for another year?

Let's hope so. I think so unless one of the SEC schools pay more.

 

[Irish#1]

I think the lack of a summer and full fall camp slowed his adjustment period some. He's getting better each week.

Him and Bracy next year would do wonders for letting the young guys continue to grow before needing to see starter level snaps. Some might earn them in time but similar to what we've seen from Bauer. Some guys just aren't quite ready until they bust through and that's when they should take over those snaps. At least that's my hope for CB.

Yep. And Crawford too assuming he's back.

Lol

1) I love Shawn and want him back so badly
2) I want him back, just to say he did it...lol 7 years is amazing

 

[Irishokie]

Declared for the draft

SOB. I figured this is what he was going to do. But I was holding out hope he would come back for one more year to improve in his craft.

I was hoping that he would be back next year. If nothing else, for depth!

 

[dublinirish]

had two nice picks in the Hula Bowl last night, Shaun Crawford also played and Roby Toma was an assistant coach

 

[IrishLax]

Ran a 4.37 40 today. That speed coupled with his film and size... he's about to be a mid-round pick at worst.

That is a supposed hand time of 4.37. Regardless if that is hand time or lazy time it's plenty fast. Saying that I don't think he plays that fast.

Another Rock Hillian NFLer.
