'19 TN ATH TJ Sheffield (Purdue Verbal)

[Luckylucci]

Well, that's just dumb

Not really, it doesn’t sound like the staff has been pushing here for months. So if he wants to decide now, it’ll more than likely be somewhere else.

I watched his film, and even though he's a consensus 4 star, I'm fine passing.

BOOM

So weird especially since Loy gave a Purdue CB.

Cool beans

 

[NDinMI]

Slightly surprised. Wasn't a huge fan of his film, but I'll gladly take a speedy & shifty play maker. I'd assume we are done at WR now? Still looking to possibly add Cornelius Johnson if he wants in? He says he will still OV several schools to be sure, but if he's still looking then we need to still be looking.

 

[koonja]

Ehh, ok.

 

[arrowryan]

Definitely a surprising, but welcomed commitment. But the last sentence of “I plan on taking official visits to multiple schools to make sure I made the right decision” doesn’t sit well. Might as well have waited to make a decision. I’d keep recruiting the position because I already have him as “most likely to decommit” in this class.

 

[NDinMI]

Just watched his film again. Not too bad actually. Not as bad as I had thought. Maybe I watched his Soph highlights at first I'm not sure. Will be interesting to see how this once ends.

 

[IrishFanJMercy]

ESPN things highly of him he is currently rated as tied for our highest recruit on their website

 

[ResLife Hero]

Caught the Rivals guys by surprise too. They finished their Cam Hart commitment podcast saying they expected a lull after taking Hart.

 

[NDIrish88]

He says in the 247 article that he is still taking other OV's to other schools and will not shut down his recruitment. This must be odd circumstances. Knowing that he is still taking more OV's, wouldn't the staff still go after other WR's? This is so weird.

Probably told there was one spot left at WR....first come first serve.

 

[BabyIrish]

He seems to have above average speed and agility, but not close to elite. However I think his technique and route running are his best trait which tells me he’s very coachable. I like this pick up, if it sticks.

 

[NDIrish88]

Yeah I agree but given he wants to take other OV's I would think the staff would still go after other WR's if it is a top of the board player.

Also can he play corner?

 

[koonja]

No bat signal from BK. He ain't happy.

 

[ResLife Hero]

Noticed the same thing. Hoping this isn't another Isaiah McKenzie "commitment".

 

[BobbyMac]

The rare surprise. Thought maybe ND was passing or pushing him off till later.

Dino's dancing all across the internet.

 

[NDIrish88]

On the Rivals boards, Driskell just said that they could still add a third receiver if it was one they absolutely wanted.

 

[EddytoNow]

This was a nice surprise for today. The staff is doing an excellent job in filling needs and building depth. Welcome to ND TJ.

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

A welcome surprise on a Friday. Nice pickup.

 

[koonja]

I have a funny feeling ND didn't expect this, nor did they want this.

Didn't read the thread before I posted. Something strange is a foot at the Circle K. I'll give him until sundown to renounce his OV's or he gets excommunicated.

5'10", 170, 4.7 forty, no BK bat signal.... I'm ready to fight someone.

Who wants to visit their PCP?

 

[NDIrish88]

Yeah something went wrong on here. Staff didn't know and he wants to take other OV's. No BK signal yet. This is just weird.

 

[Irish YJ]

Purdue got Loy'd. lol

Welcome aboard TJ, that is, if you're really aboard.

 

[IrishFanJMercy]

Does seem odd no signal from BK

 

[KizerWilhelm]

Loy hinting here that he's not convinced Sheffield actually ends up Irish https://247sports.com/college/notre...ame-Fighting-Irish-football-119619071/?Page=3

EDIT: lol, forget hinting, he openly said earlier in the thread that he thinks he ends up something else on NSD https://247sports.com/college/notre...ld-commits-to-Notre-Dame-Fighting-Irish-footb
