Seems like it could be ND or PSU for Jamion Franklin too.
That's all ND unless something dramatic happens
Notre Dame leads for JaMion Franklin
Sir Loy thinks OSU leads
Think ND needs to close the gap or gain a commitment this weekend
Can't let him go elsewhere. Think he is much better than Franklin
Weird that Loy is hearing OSU leads as of today but the PSU mod thinks it's PSU or ND with ND leading
I like Mustipher but I actually prefer Franklin. More short area quickness and better with his hands IMO

The optics seem to suggest ND is after Franklin and Booker more than Mustipher, no?

Could that just be a matter of complacency though? They think PJ is a lock, so they're focusing on locking in DT number 3?
For all we know this could be something akin to a Derrick Allen situation, who was way more committed behind the scenes than he was in public.
I was just talking to my friend on the phone and he read me something that Loy said. I'm not sure where it came from, he's a subscriber. Here it is with me paraphrasing.
PJ is an OSU - ND battle unless one school starts looking elsewhere. Mustipher's a good two way player. Is he a Top 100 player? I don't think so. But he's a guy I'd extend a scholarship to.
This was apparently not in response to a question.
What school is going to look elsewhere which in this case means move on? Both are looking elsewhere but he's at the top of both schools boards and each will be in it till he signs on NSD. A commitment will not stop either from recruiting him.
Is he a Top 100 player? I think he is but that's not the point. What's the purpose of downgrading him vs what your company thinks? No one asked.
At least he'd extend an offer to PJ like the staff did long ago and like the best programs in the country have.
Does that comment grind anyone else's gears? I hate that ND has an FSU/SC lover as their 247 guy. Wish the guy at FSU would get a job at Big Lots and move on so Loy would kick rocks to FL.
He's annoying for a host of reasons but I didn't take up much disgust with this post because its along the lines of what he's been saying for awhile now. He's not as high on PJ as the rankings are, which I actually respect that opinion. Not towing the company line, and all. He's also been adamant that ND is higher on Franklin than they are PJ, which is surprising to most but that's been his narrative and he's sticking to it, lol.

--Owings Mills (Md.) Mc Donogh defensive tackle P.J. Mustipher visited Notre Dame, Tennessee and Penn State in the last month. He is also talking regularly with Michigan State, Maryland and Virginia Tech. He will sit down with his family in the next few days and decide on a commitment time frame.
My buddy just told me that per Wiltfong --> Tennessee leads... and ND might even trail PSU(???)
Sad if true. Regardless how they fell about him as a fit.
