From the looks of things the staff is gonna put in some serious work on the trail from now on. I hated losing Alford, and I think he is great at what he does, but it may have been a blessing in disguise. The organization and fresh concepts that Elston is bringing should pay huge divedends in the long run.

a lot of this is done by Aaryn Kearney...he is the man behind the social media stuff....bk even gave him a shout out on signing day

 

[GBdomer]

Getting a really good feeling about him and Dillion

Nice! I do recall him talking about employing students in the recruiting office. Could you imagine having that job!? It would complete me lol.

 

[rtrn2glory]

Hopefully this class lives up to the hype it seems to be getting from the recruiting sites.

 

[Luckylucci]

Like GB noted, he's pretty high on ND early. However, he's another kid that is really high on OSU early as well. Hopefully he takes his time.

would love to be a fly on the wall to hear what Urban's selling pitch is that gets these guys to "close" the door so fast.

 

[GBdomer]

Will be on campus in a few weeks for junior day

 

[Irish#1]

Don't expect a commitment, but would love to hear we lead after junior day.

Gotta think the longer his recruitment goes the better. ND led for Garrett and Pryor before they picked the Suckeyes.

[Luckylucci]

In terrible news for closet OSU fans, Black has essentially eliminated OSU from consideration due to not getting offered. I questioned how IE would handle this, so go gently fellas.

Still a handful of schools in play, most notably ND, Stanford, Bama, MSU, UM, and UCLA Loy believes it comes down to the 4 bolded with ND being the leader and Stanford being a legit contender, should he gain admittance. Good news is, he wants to EE and won't be able to at Stanford.

Buckeye message boards are probably littered with "Didn't want anyway" comments.

or.... will get anyway.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Would be a really nice pickup.

 

[BeauBenken]

Bobby Diaco will be mad at us if we steal this guy from his state...

This kid's workout looks real to me! I tend to believe what his trainer says about his abilities and work ethic.

 

[irishff1014]

Per Loy will be on campus until tomorrow. Getting Black and his parents was huge for ND.
