You can have an ND staff member in his home once a calendar week according to recruiting rules. So...

2017-2018
11/26-12/2 Brian Kelly & Brian Polian 11/28
12/3-12/9
12/10-12/16 Brian Polian & Clark Lea 12/13
1/12-1/13
1/14-1/20
1/21-1/27 Brian Polian & Clark Lea 1/23
1/28-2/3

This is only what i could confirm via 247 (no subscription) & Twitter

- Allowed 6 visits per student athlete w/ 1 visit per calendar week from 11/26-2/3

Does that include "sleep overs" in pajama pants (ahem, Harbaugh)?

Agreed. Plus we have Ovie.

Doesn't mean I still dont' have some resentment about not getting McGrone. Fack Michigan.

Appreciate Polian's effort on this guy just won't take no for an answer and he seems to do it in a respectable way. I remember when JuJu went after the ND/USC game to seek out to say hello to coach Denbrock. It wouldn't shock me if Tu did that with Polian and Lea. We might never win these Cali battles and I hope we spend more resources in Georgia but Cali has always been good to ND. I know the HS coaches and the underclassmen appreciate when we do this.

And sometimes it works and I know it didn't work out but sometimes we land a 5* from the Trinity league and that's worth it to the staff. They might not always work out but I don't see us never not recruiting the Trinity league.

Don't know if it changes Solo's interest but USC just reeled in their 4th LBer without Solo in the class yet. Maybe he looks for better options? PS, we have already taken 4 LBers but he'd be the best of the bunch whereas USC he's definitely 2 or even 3 on that list.

Committed to USC

Edit: I'm seeing on Twitter that he did some sort of Notre Dame fakeout thing. Yawn.

Loy’s behind the scenes article this year has me extremely intrigued on what happened with this recruitment. Sounded like he was heading to ND and then something happened. Loy won’t divulge what that was to change things.

Well that's just annoying - I would have rather not even heard of this and just assumed it was USC all the way.

Who gives a fvck? So have countless other players who we don't need to concern ourselves with.

We have a great class and we're moving forward.

It seems like every year there's one big recruit who was "gonna be a part of the class" until "something turned them off..."

And there's a dramatic cliff-hanger, and we never hear about it again. I think it's a convenient excuse to drive clicks and interest, and to cover for a reporter/insider taking a wild guess and then having to explain it away like they were "in the know."

That might be the case, but ISD actually mentioned something in a recent post as well. Depending on who you talk to, Solo told ND he was coming a week and half before signing day.

I want people to know that that is not okay. We've become more lax than this board once was just a few years back, but cleaning up stuff like that is exactly what gained this board its members.

I like to think its one of the finer fan forums out there.
