Saw something about preferred walk on.

 

[Grahambo]

Won't matter where they push. For him to have all his course requirements at ND in 3 years of HS without properly planning to do so before your freshman year is practically impossible.

He may meet the bare minimums of clearing house buts that's most likely it.

Wiltfong is saying ND would be an instant finalist. Supposedly the only hiccup is an ACT score that he is retaking soon. He hit it off with Hoge and Aliz'e at the Army Bowl.

Unless he's a QB the same way Baratti was a QB, this would be questionable to say the least.

It's for a walk on spot.

And that spot is likely unavailable now.

Can someone please provide a quick update of who is expected to EE this class? I can only remember two. Thanks!

I'm sorry, but I can't be the only one who thinks this is f*cked up. So, he moves up a grade and is set to graduate, yet presumably only has enough to pass clearing house standards? So what if he stayed in high school for his senior year?

On a side note, I'm tired of this stupid ACT/SAT crap. How much more do they need to score to get into ND, as opposed to an SEC school. I know that ND is suppose to be about academic excellence, but the SAT/ACT is a complete joke. I mean, if he scored absolutely horrible on it, then maybe I'd understand, but if he's just at the required NCAA level, I say let him in. GPA is way more important than some dumbass standardized test anyday of the week. Shows that he's consistently putting in the work to get that 3.1 GPA, just may not be a good test taker.

GPA means jack if he comes from a crap school district and took crap classes in HS. ACT is about projecting what you can do with challenging material put in your way. GPA is just a measure of what you were subjected to in the past...which could be very weak.

 

[dad4aa]

Even though I hate standardized tests, currently, it is the only way to try and measure students against each other. As Wingman said, you could have a high GPA because you went to a crap school, took an easy class load, were a great athlete and teachers gave you a free pass, had teachers that allowed you to do tons of extras credit, etc. Plus, if the teachers give easy tests you could have a 4.0 and not really be a great student. If students across the country take similar tests then there is at least some small way to try and separate their education and ability to succeed in a tough academic environment.

Like I said, I don't really like them because there is a pool of questions that the test pulls from and some tests can be easier than others. Some people have test anxiety and never do well on these tests even though they are very bright. Also, the test taking environments are different. I remember my daughter having one section she did terrible at because, during the english portion, they ran an elementary volleyball clinic in the gym across from the room she took the test and there were a ton of little kids screaming and she could not focus. But, until there is a better way to evaluate students, this is what we are stuck with for now.

What was his test score? I'm assuming you know because you're ripping ND for not taking him, so if you can let me know what his test score and GPA is, I'd appreciate it.

I DESERVE TO KNOW!!!

That maybe, but the ACT/SAT are still useless. There's pretty much no way to prepare for it, as the prep-classes are completely useless. They just show you the structure of the test and ways to prepare for it...Wow. Next thing you know, they'll be teaching a class on how to sharpen your #2 f*cking pencil, and make sure it's #2!

I do agree that GPA can be altered, but take from a guy who received a higher education and actually had to earn his way through school. Got a 3.8 GPA and high acclaim from teachers. Got pretty mediocre SAT and ACT scores, and I even took the SAT TWICE. Remotely the same score each time. Like I said, those standardized tests are a very poor judge of intelligence and workload handling. It's essentially a glorified guessing game. If you're a highly intelligent individual, then sure, your odds of scoring high on the test are better, but for those who work hard and don't have the intellect or the test-taking skills, these standardized tests are completely and utterly pointless. That's all I'll say. There has to be better ways to measure a student-athlete's readiness for college courses.

No thanks. I'll just ask you since you are the one ripping the ND admin for not accepting him. What's his test score and his GPA again? C'mon man, I've been here a long time and it's not fair that others know and I don't. I don't care if this gets me banned but I DESERVE TO KNOW!

^ Got made fun of for shitty SAT scores

About as good a place as any to put this. Talks about some of the Gorman players like nicco and Alize.

There's no way to prepare for it, except take a useless prep course that shows you how to prepare for it??

Knowing how a test is structured, and how to focus your time during it, are actually a very big help, whether through prep courses or practice exams.

Okay thanks. Our butler wrote my exams in high school, and then through college, so I was lacking the understanding of having to work at the academic side of school

So, the tests are not a test of intelligence, but more intelligent people tend to score better on them, and those that don't have the intellect tend not to?? I was genuinely confused by what you are saying there.


I am not even defending the tests outright, but find that your statements are conflicting

ND has started contact and requested transcripts from safety prospect Kameron Powell, per rivals.

3-star with a really bad offer list.

Kameron Powell

 

[Luckylucci]

Per BGI a new name to follow on the S board is Kameron Powell from Upland California. He is currently committed to WSU but there has been contact from ND and his coach expects Elliot to be in more contact in the coming days. No mention of his interest level at this juncture but he still has the ability to take OV's if he chooses.

 

[Luckylucci]

FWIW, Loy just posted that Powell is NOT a guy that ND is targeting.

He's also been committed to WSU since May of last year. In other words, he committed before his senior season and before the summer camp circuit.

True, but I don't think any teams are scared off by the Washington State program, lol.

If big dogs wanted him, they'd offer and he'd listen.

It's not that they'd be scared off, it's that offers go unreported, or he may have made no effort to further his recruitment.

I can't judge his talent well because there doesn't appear to be any seasonal film of his. (Also may play into why he doesn't have a ton of offers.)

Must be that time of the year where all recruiting reporters start drinking heavily, lol.

Per BGI they can confirm that all EE's are on campus and at Orientation today.

Tevon Coney, Micah Dew-Treadway, Tristen Hoge & Jerry Tillery on board and begin class tomorrow #ShamrockSoldiers

 

[Luckylucci]

Haha, this is one of those "why not" scenarios as ND has the money and whoever is sending these out probably has the time but we sent out a Pot of Gold to Rasheem Green.

Told Anna he was surprised. He had not talked to ND in a while and won't consider them.

Good news Luckylucci. Thank you for the update. Looks like we can stop worrying about an Alex Anzalone situation happening again.
