You take every single four star plus defensive front seven player you can get... All the times... Go without an o line if you have to damnit!!! All the front sevens!

We are getting tight on spots and I don't know if he's a prospect you need to take right now in August.

Numbers are really tight right now and we already have two DT's committed. Same reason we stopped recruiting Wade-Perry. So no, I doubt he's a take right now. Doubt we are even recruiting him. Have you heard his named mentioned at all anywhere until Hinish saw him today?
I love the Hinish and Ewell pickups and they might be the 2 strongest kids in the class but they are IMO both better suited to be NT.

Getting elite DT(3T) it's almost impossible for ND so when you can get one that has the upside to turn into one of those elite types then you've got to take then and IMO Jeter is one those guys that could eventually become elite.

You're gonna have to tell me which elite traits you saw in his highlight tape.

I'm convinced I've found the Problem, GBDomer has a stigmatism, he isn't seeing the profile correctly... He sees:OT when in fact we are talking about a DT.... That must be the issue here.....


Must be....







Or he must be killed.

If we can get Gilmore to work the magic he has worked in the past these next two classes of D-lineman should be special.

Looking at that pic, it appears ND pillaged and raped the state of Pennsylvania for their best players. I wonder how PSU likes being on the other end? lol

Also trying to visit on that weekend are David Adams and Kurt Hinish

I realize that folks are saying he's not a fit and I see it too. However, this sure seems like a coordinated recruiting effort.

Mind catching me up here? Why is he not a fit? Looks like a stud at a size that is simply hard to recruit. Numbers be damned?

Fit from a personality perspective not talent. This is from some pay site mods and then others like Greyworm, mentioning his twitter account. Just not something you typically see from ND recruits.

So I checked out his Twitter, and yes, he retweets some dumb shit. He obviously presents himself as a pretty arrogant kid. But is there more to it then his Twitter page? Does he act dumb in interviews? Has he gotten into trouble?

I'm not saying you guys are wrong, but if it's just Twitter, then I would just go with what the staff thinks. He apparently excels academically, for what that's worth.

Staff has questions on him outside of the classroom. It's more than just his Twitter account.

Can you guys elaborate or are the rest of us supposed to just accept it and move on? I'm not saying you're wrong, but the cryptic "not a RKG" stuff gets old if we are trying to have a real conversation about his recruitment.

I suppose it matters what kind of attitude issue we're talking about. The staff couldn't work that outta Blankenship for example, but there are plenty of guys that have used the opportunity to become better men. Bettis did that back in the day. Hell, he sold crack shot at dudes.

I don't see anything in there that 90% of any major recruit wouldn't want. Championships, nfl, hall of fame, money and the celebrity status.
