[irishff1014]

I can't do it from my phone but if someone can upload his 247 announcement video very respectable kid IMO.

Three-star CB Elijah Hicks makes college decision - CBSSports.com

Awesome sauce

4-star according to Scout and Rivals, and his grade is rising on 247. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets his 4th star there.

His Senior film shows a lot of improvements from the previous year. Very instinctual, fluid and has a nose for the football. Not afraid to make contact.

I noticed that his speed isn't great, but I don't think he's inherently slow. He just doesn't seem to run correctly. I think if he hits the offseason hard, he can get faster by improving his technique.

Watched 1:24 of his film and that was my only takeaway.

So where will he play? He's too slow for defense. I guess we are used to our corners getting burnt...

 

[irishff1014]

I don't believe he has great speed but i believe he is fast enough. He tackles very well, has good hands, He is pretty good in coverage.

he is slower, but physical, instinctive(helps mask speed), can play man and goes against cali's #1 wr's from bosco, mater etc

Vaughn was reported as being pretty slow last year (4.8), he's been doing fine.

if ND can land either amari carter or Thomas graham then this will be the second year in a row that ND has killed it for DB recruiting. now for some DL.

I think you get Graham AND a safety just not named Carter.

idk, i feel like graham is going to usc/oregon. was checking out his twitter yesterday to see if he was congratulating hicks on his commitment, and noticed that he only likes usc/oregon things. didn't see anything about nd. obviously, could mean nothing, but it was enough to be noticeable for me.

Awesome news!!! I'm on vacation in Puerto Vallarta so am only occasionally checking in. Great pick up, Go Irish!!!

I think what ND sees in him is the same thing they see in Pride, Love and Vaughan. Tough, smart kids who are ready day one to compete. Great article on 247 where his HS coach raves about this kid's makeup and how he "gets" ND. I see a very high ceiling on this kid especially because of his passion and desire to do great things.

Real supportive...this is a huge moment in this kids life, a celebratory moment. And you come with this negativity.

Visiting Michigan this weekend. Welp, that commitment didn't last long...

Good source?

Hope he stays put. A better Matthias Farley at this point of his career.

HS coach on Elijah Hicks: '100% signing with Notre Dame'
A little reassuring...
