2018 Master List

[BobbyMac]

He has only 1 CB, to Southern Cal, from *drumroll* Tom Loy. Do you really think there's enough interest?

He's not you typical born in LA, Dad's from LA, went to SC/UCLA kinda kid.

Bad news is he just transferred to Calibraska Junior College in Calabassas.

But that's not a thing

 

[NDMIA]

Can someone please expand on why some of these RB's haven't been offered? Whether its grades, not fast enough, not good enough? I know ND wants to take 2 RB which is awesome. Thanks

Fabian Franklin MS RB 0.9281
Camron Davis FL RB 0.9241
Harold Joiner AL RB 0.9133
Asa Martin AL RB 0.9064
Ronnie Walker VA RB 0.9057

News you weren't expecting to hear...

ND is in contact with and could possibly offer a Top 30 (per Scout) QB from the class of 2018. It's Tanner McKee of Centennial HS in Corona Ca. He was the back up QB as a soph when Von McKinley was a Senior.

Freebie here:

Unique recruitment for Tanner McKee who talks top schools visits and more

What's the rationale?

 

[NDdomer2]

What's the rationale?

Avery Davis will be needed at CB

 

[NDShark]

Avery Davis will be needed at CB

Ha! Just read the article (always a good idea). Apparently he's planning to take a 2 year LDS mission and would technically be considered a 2020 recruit.

Intriguing updates from ISD on this kid. Per the Power Hour released today and a look at who USC is leading for LBs, Bo might be an actual option. Couple that with offering his kid brother, and this could get interesting.

I guess the real question is, does he fight Bauer for Bo?

I'm still a little skeptical that it might just be posturing to get his brother an offer from USC. With that said, he's given very positive reviews of ND to BGI and 247, as well. He's been in communication with the staff for quite awhile, so this isn't out of the nowhere. Playing with his brother is very important, and they were impressed with ND offering both, at essentially the same time. Sounds like it will be more interesting to follow than I initially thought. We'll see.

Edit: He'd be a really versatile player for Elko. Drop end seems like a perfect fit, but I think he could also be moved around depending on who else we land or is on the roster at that time.

I don't know their depth chart situation, but Southern Cal does have verbals from two other LBs, and is leading for a third. It very well could be posturing to get little bro an offer, but I'm not sure if he has that much leverage right now. I bet Crus has better info about everything that's going on.

For your edit: Jamie at ISD mentioned that he has edge rusher potential the other day. The kid is good and versatile, which would be awesome for Elko.

I've been persuaded to believe this is something very real. As you guys have mentioned, as well as someone earlier, SC currently has: (forgive any sp errors)

IE Gaoteote ILB - Committed
Raymond Scott OLB - Committed
Merlin Robertson ILB - Worst kept secret in silent commit history
Solomon Tuliapupupupupu ILB/OLB - Same as Robertson

At WDE they most likely have Cameron Latu coming in

Lastly you have to watch Devon Williams who is sorta a Chase Claypool type that SC could use as a big SS or OLB as he fills out.

Lastly, SC will take any JUCO player they want and have a history of doing so in December.

How does Calvert feel about that? He was first to commit but yet they continue to stack em deep. I'm starting to really like the psychology of this deal.

24/7 ranks him the #923 player in the country, so obviously he's a take

Good news that the ND sites are gonna give him some coverage. Geordon Porter from Cali.

He's been followed for quite some time. Tall track star. Just what you want. Was way under recruited until Bama offered last week.

His 247 says 4.4 40

 

[zelezo vlk]

Per ISD, Rasheed Walker has received an offer. Harry is on the prowl

 

[phgreek]

His 247 says 4.4 40

Hudl had him at 4.57...thats a big span. Maybe Hudl is an old number...

 

[BobbyMac]

His 247 says 4.4 40

Ran a 4.57 at the Opening LA. Has run a 10.69 / 100M.

 

[BobbyMac]

As much as I like Walker, I would be fine if ND offered this kid. He's going to explode.

5-10.5 - 195lb ... Greg Bryant frame and combine measurables.

It'll be interesting to see if Northwestern offers. I heard he may not currently be an ND qualifier at this time.

Anyways, you can tell this kid is an electric athlete. He's the last guy in the second vid, you can really see his athleticism in that drill.
