Meet the newest unofficial member of The Fighting Irish.

Wiltfong with a CB a couple of days ago. McGrone will be at the Stanford game with a bunch of Indy guys. Offer watch obviously.

That's a fun tape to watch. Player. Period.

So there's this guy plus Dallas Gant and the other linebackers in 18. Isn't that too many?

Bauer's the only guaranteed LB. Both Ademilola's will be lineman though Justin is still listed as an OLB at 240+ right now. Oghoufo could be an OLB but isn't the thinking the staff sees him at WDE down the road?

The Fonger knows something to CB a kid that's right under his nose in Indy.

I think Wiltfong has slipped a bit recently, but that's just my personal opinion. I know that many are extrapolating The NJ LB twin and the MI kid to DEs, but would they really? Especially if the new DC runs a 3-4. So maybe you could take 4 linebackers, but Gant will be the pick of the litter, it sounds like and he may not want to bother.

I just want the kid because Bogs vouches for him, and Bogs is as good of a judge of character as anyone.

That's as good of a motor that I've seen in a long time and he likes to hit.

If they go 3-4 OO is one of Daelin Hayes back ups at ROLB till draft day. The "little" Ademilola is pushing 250 already. He's going to be lineman, you can't fight them genes.

Bo Bauer is the pick of the litter from MLB, Gant would be behnd IE Gaoteote for me but they could both end up in Columbus. *vomit*

Just keepin' it real.

Getting ready to post the #1 Sophomore in Indiana's profile, David Bell who's visiting ND this weekend. Guess who his favorite team growing up was? You guessed it. More sorrow so has a sad on me.

Luckylucci · Oct 12, 2016

Considering that I think being physical at the point of attack is one of our current defenses biggest weakness. Plus, I'd like to see a move towards a 3-4 base with bigger players up the middle. I like him as a prospect. Bauer/McGrone at Mike/Will. I think Ovie would start at Dog LB (to use terminology folks are familiar with). Then we can still go after ROLB. Maybe Ovie grow into that. Justin A. might start off here. I'm all in, for some physical football

Just saw the tape. Kid is a want.

Had a very productive but injury shortened season.

In 8 games he had 93 Tackles, 20.5 TFL, 4.5 sacks in Indiana's top 6A conference.

Also has a 3.92 GPA. Scored a 107.5 Sparq last summer. 4.69 / 40. 4.25 shuttle. 33" Vert. 40' PB. Very good score for a to be junior LB. He claims a 4.47/40 on Hudl btw.

I hope CME offers him quickly and gets on him personally. He's visited Ohio St but they haven't offered yet either.

ND Fan Vancouver · Dec 25, 2016

Wow! Numbers aside I'd take this kid no matter what. Very good instinct. Really good speed especially closing speed. Takes good angles and is a very aggressive, hard hitter. Looks really polished in coverage too. Not as long as Ovie but faster. Love this kid.

DomeX2 eNVy · Dec 25, 2016

I could see this kid fitting Elko's rover position.

LB all the way. Plus with Ovie and Bauer already committed ND can wait and go after the top of the board guys. He wouldn't be an upgrade over Bauer or Ovie. Plus all we have to do is hold off Michigan for Gant

Wiltfong says IU. Great for them if they can pull him.

That CB will go cloudy if ND, OSU or Tenn offers... possibly Michigan too though i haven't heard of any interest there just guessing with the pull they've had in Indy the past 2 cycles.

Luckylucci · Apr 13, 2017

I like him as a player, and he sounds like a fit so I'm a little bummed this won't happen, but I can understand not offering at this time.

I know. Wish he was 6-3. Love his film but I liked Asamoah's and he ran a 4.9. lol.

To be fair, he had much better measurables last year than any of ND's realistic targets had this year. Ran 4.6 and 4.2 shuttles. He plays fast too.

Hopefully he's there later if they need him.

BeauBenken · Apr 13, 2017

Definitely one of those times where you wish ND had more room because you hate seeing this kid go elsewhere.

BobbyMac · Apr 13, 2017

This is encouraging. They wouldn't be putting this out if there wasn't genuine interest and something of a plan about his recruitment. Could be something like, Cam, if Gant goes elsewhere the spot is yours or if we have one more defection in the front 6.5, a scholarship is yours.

Not to hijack the thread, but is that edit from the university? Because I've seen it everywhere and I kinda hate it. Shows no personal flair, just photoshopping a number and a name.

NDdomer2 · Apr 15, 2017

The characeutuer type one is legit nice work. The others are alright but do seem like anyone with the right software could do.

I would put the jumbo Tron one as the worst of the ones posted here, as the jumbo Tron and the text on it look the most "fake" or easily duplicated by some scrub.

But ND has stepped it's game up with these.

Big23Head · Apr 17, 2017

Tore his ACL last fall, I didn't see that mentioned prior but may have missed it. May return for II this summer. Staff wants to see him move.

Irish hope in-state linebacker returns - Notre Dame - Scout

BobbyMac · Apr 27, 2017

Bo, Ovie then Cameron & Shayne. Mike, Drop, Buck, Rover in '20. I'm good with that.

It'll be interesting to see where things go if Gant picks OSU. Do they wait for a guy like Jack Lamb to visit, before handing out more offers? Or do they immediately start looking for other options with offers? Try and get some players to camp?
