What is there to disagree with? Huffman's CB probably means UW currently leads, like all CB's do. He's never visited ND so it shouldn't be that surprising. And he's probably got 2 visits (to ND) before he decides. I find it hard to get worked up for a CB 9 months prior to his decision with a ton of visits to go.

Disagree with not getting disappointed when a Huffman CB hits for UDub on a player ND wants. I'm sure all the regulars here understand CB's are barometers for that day but some mean more than others. Of course ND still has time to win it. But besides the Huffman CB, you have a central Cali kid who chose not to play with SoCal or NorCal 7v7's and instead chose FSP out of Seattle. We shall see. I'm still hoping he's our slumpbuster.

Those dudes blow

John Ross has tons of potential, quickest combo guy ever. I didn't realize he had 7 TD's. Won't surprise me if he has a good career.

Now my man Dante Petitt is legit. I started going to JSerra games his senior year. He was WAY underrated, hiding in plain sight in America's #1 HS conference. I dug into my 2014 file and saw that he was my #6 WR for ND. I had a weird but eventually solid Top 10. I thought Brent would be an APB, couldn't decide if Andrews would become a TE, a Flex or Shark 2.0 in college. Mike Dudek would be Tom Brady's best friend if he hadn't blown out each knee 3x. Injury messed up Simmie Cobbs too. Actually I'll admit, pretty proud of that list.

Allen Lazard - IA - (IA St)
Micah Quick - CA - (OU)
Terry McLaurin - Indy (OSU)
Justin Brent - Indy (ND)
Mark Andrews - AZ (OU)
Dante Petitt - Orange Co CA (UDub)
Mike Dudek - IL (UofI)
Simmie Cobbs - IL (IU)
Jamal Custis - PA (Cuse)
Adonis Jennings - NJ (Pitt/UMass)

Of course, what Petitt did in the Huskies' return game was Hesterish.

I understand the CB's and it was just my initial reaction. I think this one stings a little because it is UW and ND has had some recruits lost recently as I posted above. I don;t really sweat it until Sinclair gives his CB. He takes those pretty seriously.

I also remember last year people lost their minds, myself included, when EJ Holland and the rest of the UT writers flipped their CBs for Nana to the Longhorns. That turned out well. Still a long way to go.

LOL. Go back and look man. There was a ton of people who were pissing their pants and in the fetal position.

I did go back and peruse the Nana thread. I guess you were right. While there were definitely a lot of people freaking out, NDIrish88 was leading that charge. Now he is the voice of reason. LOL

I was super pissed about Nana. EJ Holland just needed clicks. I will have few drinks, watch the USC game, feel a lot better lol.

LOL at the first comment on the 247 article NDCrusader just posted.

Now I know everyone is going to be down on our chances because Fresno and ND haven't been so kind. But I really think if we sell him on the idea of bulking up and playing rover he'll come to ND

He is still visiting ND. Sounds like those other schools are pulling away though. He’s been good this weekend at the adidas championship. Side note, Sam Huard looks great and Gee Scott has been dominant

So McMillans have arrived at ND. Isn't he supposed to be in South Bend until Sunday?

I'm gonna put on my emerald colored glasses, pretend he's a lock and have a great weekend.

Who we got on bagman duty this weekend? Can Wooly swing down with a pre-approved, zero interest loan for Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Earl?

Yeah, ISD had said that they would be on campus for a long weekend. Lots of ground to make up here. Let's hope for a great weekend.

Not by the numbers but by the quality, this weekend is every bit as important as last weekend

4 days in the Bend? I couldn't do it... unless they reopened the Kitty Kat Lounge.

Let’s not waste the money. Save it for a kegger before the USC game.

ISD and Rivals have updates on his visit. If Loy and Wiltfong feel strongly enough to put CB's on the enemy then I don't think it is very promising, but hopefully the visit changed that. Washington has ND's number. Plain and simple.

NDInsider just posted an article saying that he is a "coin flip" between Washington and ND.
