Skip QB in '16 and grab him and Johnson for '17. Redshirt Clifford. Johnson will be gone to the NFL after the '19 season so Clifford has 2 years after Johnson.

He loves ND and would already be committed if not for Johnson. Hope he gets to play in South Bend.

[Huntr]

Committed to Penn St.

silly autocorrect...

 

[#1rish]

Committed to Penn State.


Cmon Hunter

 

[GrangerIrish24]

let the Hunter Johnson dominoes fall

 

[BobbyMac]

That's good news. Sean wanted to be in South Bend but this reveals what's going on in the back room. Most likely, Sean committed there because Hunter is going to ND and PSU knew that too or they wouldn't have taken another QB at this point.

Of course if Hunter does go somewhere else, I'll bet it all Sean decommits immediately if or when ND offers.

Confidence. I like it.

Clifford has had 3 concussions in his HS career already fyi

So should be looking for him to decommit soon? Is this our next best option...only option...who else do we have a shot at?

 

[woolybug25]

Screw it. Go after him and Matt Bockhorst (who has an 80% CB to ND).

He better find a good OLine!

 

[Cackalacky]

Highly doubt Clifford would flip anywhere at this stage after talking to a couple people today.
