You're probably right. But I remember ND fans feeling pretty good about him because he also has another brother on the ND staff as a GA (not sure if he's still there or not).

Yeah, check the upshot for the rest of the class thread, it's being discussed there. In short, the realistic 5th years are Lombard, Moore, Collinsworth, and Utupo.

If you honestly think that will stop the ND recruiting staff from stopping OL recruiting , then you're out of your mind. ND thrives on OL and will take anyone they can get, if they are promising.

anyone have an idea of some guys not on the radar that might end up there within the next three weeks?
i don't have a clue personally
imo we won't get juju or quick. perhaps we snag hendrix late in the game, but outside of him i've got nothing

We will make a run at some prospects in the next few weeks. The staff is back together this week on campus. DC will be announced early next week. We will make a run at one or two more guys maybe off the radar.

ND seemingly had those numbers in K/P's.

Edgar Cerenord DT from American Heritage is expected to receive a visit from Alford this week as well and an offer could come during that visit. We're going to try and set up an official visit so the other coaches can see him as well and maybe the offer comes then.

Good for him. I was really high on this kid. I was hoping we could move him to receiver, or just return man.

You sure this is who you are thinking of? Not the QB from Iowa?

Normally not a fan of him, but I'll allow it.

Coach D (Bryan Driskell), formerly of ISD and now Defiance WRs Coach, breaks down the class of 2014 here:
Grading ND's 2014 Class | Irish Sports Daily
If you have the time to read it, I think it is a fantastic breakdown of the class. Probably the best I have seen by a wide margin.

Small college :
Defiance
Ohio Northern
Heidelberg (I almost became a student prince)
Baldwin Wallace
Wittenburg
Tiffin
Ohio Wesleyan (one of my favorites)
Mount Union
John Carroll (family school)
Bluffton
I just loved this old Ohio Valley Conference kind of stuff. I would expect Coach D is coaching at Defiance University, which used to be Defiance College.

Notre Dame’s 2014 recruiting class has already signed their letters-of-intent and are looking forward to joining the Irish football team early this summer and while we know all the familiar names like Nick Watkins, Sam Mustipher, Quentin Nelson, Drue Tranquill and Nyles Morgan, there still might be another prospect joining the class soon as a preferred walk-on if he should choose to and that’s Westlake (Calif.) wide receiver, Alex Egurbide.
The 6-foot-6, 200-pound prospect has received offers from a number of Ivy League schools and has also had a number of big time Division I programs invite him to come to their programs as a preferred walk-on, including Notre Dame, Oregon, Michigan, Purdue and Minnesota.
“Everything’s been going really well and I’m looking forward to making my decision very soon,” said Egurbide. “I took a number of visits over spring break and saw some great schools, so now I’ll just discuss things over with my parents and decide where I want to go.”
South Bend ended up being one of those spring destinations.
“It was really a great visit and I feel really blessed to have the opportunity to go there if I so choose,” stated the California native humbly. “The only downside of my visit there was that all the coaches weren’t there, so I didn’t get to meet with many of them. I did sit down with Dave Peloquin, the director of player personal, and he told me a little bit about the university and about their football program. He told me what being a walk-on at Notre Dame meant and then he had one of the students show me around campus.”
Other than not being able to speak to the coaches it sounds like everything else concerning his visit went splendidly.
“It’s a beautiful campus and I like the way it’s self-contained,” explained Egurbide. “It’s not like Michigan, which feels like it was just dumped right in the middle of Ann Arbor, so I like Notre Dame’s campus quite a bit more.
“Obviously, their football program is also impressive and they have all the best facilities to help them be successful. Their tradition is amazing and being able to touch the ‘Play Like A Champion’ sign was really big for me.”
With everything all said and done now, what’s the Westlake receiver’s timeline on making a decision?
“I’m in the process of talking to my parents and I’ll probably make my decision in the next couple days. I’m pretty much down to Purdue, Minnesota and Notre Dame, so that’s who I’ll be choosing from over in the end.”
