Just watched his DB film on Hudl and I think he could be a decent FS. Takes good angles to the ball and anticipates well. Ball skills aren't too bad, but he's no Kyle Hamilton. Didn't see any film of him playing corner however so not sure if you could put him on an island against a WR.

On offense an obvious comparison is KAR form last year's class, just not as shifty or fast.

This guy is going somewhere to play O, as he should.

He's good but I wonder how his game will translate? Geez, I hate saying this because he was shifty and fast enough to score on teams with big runs.

But he looks like he has a difficult time changing direction at full speed and he lacks some top end speed. That's usually not a good combo but maybe I'm way off. Perhaps he'll make me eat big ol bag of crow.

Never thought I’d see ND offer someone from a Muskegon public school.

Did he transfer from Muskegon Catholic? His jersey in the ISD picture says "Catholic"

Noticed that as well. Looked into it and yes he transferred from Muskegon Catholic to Muskegon. That explains a lot. Not your typical move, but Muskegon has been one of the top teams in the state the past few years. Step dad is AD and Hoops coach at Muskegon. Basically wanted to be somewhere with more exposure and to play in a higher division.

Read down through this tweet thread. Kid is punching back at Loy.

Are you sure he's punching back, he basically just agreed with everything that Loy wrote about him.

Loy's response is claiming that the "all over the place" reference that Martinez took offense too, was simply trying to imply that there was no consensus to where he will end up. Could be Loy spinning it, who knows.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Appreciate the chat, Cam. Good catching up and thanks for calling. For those interested, the “all over the place” note was in reference to sources being unsure about where he is going to end up down the road. As I said to him, it wasn’t worded in reference toward his actions.</p>— Tom Loy (@TomLoy247) <a href="https://twitter.com/TomLoy247/status/1130965041635840001?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 21, 2019</a></blockquote>

Any particular reason he didn’t sign with Ohio State in December?

The rundown is as such. When OSU DC Jeff Hafley left for BC, Cam decided he didn't want to sign early but would remain committed to OSU. Now he's been communicating with ND BTS and some other schools as well. Playing offense could be more important than it was the first time around. ND recruiting him as an ATH.

ATH = We like you on O and D, but we'll probably put you on D if you sign.

Watch him flip to someone else

I don't care where he goes as long as it's not Navy.

He's Keenan Reynolds and Malcolm Perry right now.

I'd tell him he'd play Ultraback at ND and give him QB snaps too. Can you imagine him QBing the formation TJj went 85 on? Tremble lined up at FB and the best blocking back right behind him, fakes the handoff and follows Tremble and the back into the hole.

Yes... My OC interview is Friday.

He seems like he could hack it (NW, ND, TNA) and they lost that poor kid in an accident, so it would give the fanbase some really good news--which they need.

Remember those early Kelly years when it was just bad story after bad story? That was unbearable.
