Seems to be taking the DE thing seriously. Def looks thinner than last time I saw him 7 months ago.

I may have missed it but is he a dual sport guy?

I may have missed it but is he a dual sport guy?

Yes, football and quidditch

 

[irishandy]

Is ND recruiting him at DT or DE?

3 sport. Hoops too.

Is ND recruiting him at DT or DE?

Yes.

Whatever he wants to hear.

Is ND recruiting him at DT or DE?

Apparently TE.



But actually it was more of a funny blurb but Singer said ND staff loved Lucas’ family and they were showing the staff 7-7 TE highlights all weekend.

I do see the 3-4 DE in him, I’m not sure schematically ND can’t convince him to be a 4-3 DT and it’s not that different at all but that’s their job.

I think he'd be a great 4T or 5T in a 3-4. I think he'd be a great Big End for Freeman.

With that being said, a 3T in a 4-3 is much different than a 4t or 5T in a 3-4. A 3T is outside shoulder of the Guard. So, he will still always be inside of the tackle. While a 4 or 5T is either head up on the tackle or outside shoulder of the Tackle. Which would put him on the outside short of an attached TE. A 3T, outside of a stunt, cannot win truly going outside. While a 4 or 5T can. Tuitt is a good example of a 5T working outside pass rush versus say, MTA and Jayson A, as examples, haven't had that type of reality. At least until now for MTA. Tillery didn't either, accept when they'd allow him to stunt with Kareem.

This isn't to say he doesn't want to or wouldn't play a combination of both but they are quite a bit different if he envisions himself as an edge type of pass rusher. He'd never get that opportunity if he was a 4-3 DT outside of stunts.

I think they're taking the right approach to it and telling him he'll play all over. Which is not only true but also very likely.

Mike Singer seems to think ND did well with him.
Said he is a big personality and was the star of the show in terms of personality.

You don't see that mix of schools together very often, but it looks like distance isn't a concern.

 

[deise mike]

We've been impressed with Freeman so far ....this is the type of recruitment that will really show his abilities.

If he keeps it up.... ND is going to have to start doing the "It's Coming Home" chants at games.

And you're talking to an Englishman.

If not us, please anywhere other than SC...

Agreed, they are all about equally distant from Germany.

 

[irishandy]

Is he coming back for a game in the fall?

 

[NDdomer2]

think you got the wrong DL here.

 

[BobbyMac]

Agreed, they are all not about equally distant from Haiti.

FIFY

 

[Luckylucci]

Is he coming back for a game in the fall?

It's expected. But nothing has been set. At least that I know of.

Easy mistake. Not much difference between Haitian and Hessian

Was very based when Washington crossed the Delaware on Mardi Gras to the surprise of many hungover/still drunk Haitian mercenary troops!
