Little bit of momentum building up on the recruiting trail just before fall camp. Very nice.

Here's his updated R&R's.

That Comp .9522 is a big fat juicy # but it doesn't compute. 247 must be mid update.

Rankings 7-25-17:

247 Comp..... :s::s::s::s: ..... #23 WR ..... #109 OA ..... .9522 rating
247............... :s::s::s::s: ..... #20 WR ..... #118 OA ..... 93 rating
Rivals............ :s::s::s::s: ..... #28 WR ..... #141 OA ..... 5.9 rating
Scout............ :s::s::s::s: ..... #33 WR ..... #170 OA
ESPN............ :s::s::s::s: ...... #15 WR ..... #90 OA ....... 84 rating

Based on new rankings (and perhaps a software glitch) he appears to be a consensus 4 empty white box player.

So they are saying he is committing to Notre Dame on August 11th. Well if it's not a secret why not commit now to Notre Dame.

I've opened the same couple threads today and sometimes the stars work and sometimes they don't. Phone or laptop.

I looked at old recruit files that I opened in 2011. Same problem. Appears to be a software (HMTL?) issue.

They added a new Google Ad footer and since, the site's out of whack. I lost the ability to see who is in each thread. But i still run Windows 7 on everything at home, probably works with Windows 10 (which was brought to market by Microsoft in conjunction with Satan). It's optimized for mobile because it works fine on my Call Saul burner flip.

I'm entered my prior comments into the IE Website Problems thread. No point in belaboring this technical issue in a recruiting thread as it shows up differently for Me2SouthBend (and others) and it shows up differently on my laptop (Windows 7 Pro/Chrom 60) and on my iPad (Safari) and it show up in archived recruiting threads from half a dozen years ago.

I saw that, didn't know it was you. Just trying to explain what was the cause. Since I wrote that 40 min ago, the user attendance bar below the footer is fixed.

Now... How about that Kevin Austin!

T minus 17 Days and counting.

What's the connection there?

Did I miss it earlier in the thread?

I would have felt a lot worse if I clicked on that and it said Miami or Tennessee had taken a sudden lead. Losing a FL wide receiver to Duke, after months of being solidly pro-ND? Idk about that.

Agree. This sounds like creating a bit of hype and suspense before the announcement. Do kids do that? I would be tempted.

Well on the other hand, using duke football to create hype makes no sense. No one cares about duke football. At all.

Another example of paying attention to what the prospect is saying, not recruitniks thoughts. Austin has said multiple times that he is going to commit and then take OV's to his favorites. So whether we get the commitment or not, this is him naming a glorified leader, and holding a spot.

IDK about this one. He sounds like a good kid with his head screwed on straight, which makes Duke attractive.

However, if you are looking for the total experience, ND really is the best choice. It's not just the academics, but the faith- and family-oriented atmosphere.

I officially have no clue where he's going.

It literally makes no sense to make a decision so close to the time that the NCAA allows schools to let kids go on official visits, when you plan on taking visits. If I'm Notre Dame, I'm taking his word with a huge grain of salt because he clearly already doesn't know what the word "committed" means. I hope they continue to recruit and offer other kids even if he commits, as he's already a flight risk. If he commits, cool; if he doesn't, oh well.

Another way to say it is that he, and all of these kids, have re-learned what the word "commitment" means from the NCAA.

Thanks again, NCAA, you bunch of phonies!

Even if duke is getting the "hype", if he ovs, it's the Miami one that I'd be more worried about. I say go ahead and ov to duke.

Miami keeps him in state, it's a private school, richt is a good recruiter, and the program has momentum for first time in how long. I just refuse to take duke football seriously.
