So, Solo is my #1 want of players left on the board. I'll probably get a few WTF's with NPF and ASB still available. But, a LB corp that includes Solo, Lamb, and Simon. Would be incredible.

I want to get back to Top 10-15 defenses and that's a great start. Especially when you include the other dudes we'd be bringing in.

Do you think there is a legit possibility he pops for the Irish? I thought he was all USC?

Certainly a possibility. But do I think we are the favorites? No, but we are pushing very hard here and it's impressing the family. Long way to go.

Yeah, to be honest. If I got to choose between ASB and PooPoo. I'd take PooPoo.

If Phil's who I think he is, he'll turn any top 20 WR into an ASB.

But if you want a Manti or Jaylon, you gotta take a PooPoo.

Certainly included in the other "dudes" we'd be bringing in. Same goes for Griffith, Allen, Bracy, Jayson A, etc. Really like Ovie's versatility, just not sure where he ends up. However, for the sake of that post, and it not getting too long winded, I went with the prototype Mike, Buck, Rover lineup.

I think we would all take a Poo Poo at this point and be thrilled. Nothing is more satisfying than a huge Poo Poo destroying a "tight end"

7:30 show is completely different from the 9:30 show. Be sure to tip your bar maids. Try the veal. Good night.

Ya'll keep talking about your PooPoo, and I'll keep comparing the recruitment to JuJu.

There's one every cycle that says the right things but was really always 'SC like JuJu, and I bet it's the same in this case with the PooPoo.

This is very true. Stephen Carr, Betiku, Rasheem Green... the list literally goes on and on.

Pretty soon we will have to add Amon Ra to the list as well.

Those are terrible examples. Solo and his family have shown substantially more interest in ND than 3 recruitments did combined. I know Stephen Carr never even visited. Did Green, I don’t remember. We’re conducting weekly in-home visits with Solo. This is much further along than those were. JuJu is a good example, the others, not so much

Guys, this is a Manti Te'o recruitment. Stop with the negativity, it's Christmas time.

Man that would be such a nasty LB haul if we somehow manage this... Our chances aren't that good though right?

According to ISD, we were running a distant 3rd before Elko left. I don't imagine that improved things for ND.

Thought I read somewhere that Lea and Polian were his primary recruiters and Elko's departure likely didn't change things one way or another.

Still, probably same conclusion?
