Elston's in deep here.

Michigan vibe at this point.

I see a SDE, not a Vyper.

The CPL high school that produced Derrick Rose, Jabari Parker, Nick Anderson and others for basketball.

Football fans, you may recall Martez Wilson from back in 2007. To my knowledge, I don't know of a Simeon football player having attending Notre Dame recently if ever at all.

Shame on you.

Shame on you.

I'm under the impression that most here wouldn't have a clue who that is.

Only if they’re not true 30 for 30 aficionados.

Simeon has traditionally been strong in football, basketball and baseball. They're one of the better CPL football programs in the state. The 2022 team was very legit. They opened the season with wins over Wheaton South and Bolingbrook. Lost in the state playoffs to a very good Crete Monee team, then won the City Championship against Taft and Prep Bowl against Fenwick. 12-1 overall.

Burgress is a year younger, but I like him better as a prospect vs Lightfoot, even as good as Lightfoot is. Both play for good City programs. If ND is going to break through and get a player from Simeon, this would be a great ice breaker at last.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Last week added offers from Alabama, Colorado, Wisconsin, Washington. TAMU yesterday and USC today.

Tommy Rees is recruiting him for Alabama.

You cursed us using a pic of him on the field at scUM.

This isn't Prescott's son is it?

No.

Four-Star Edge-Rusher Returning to Notre Dame in July

Chicago (Ill.) Simeon four-star edge-rusher Chris Burgess has been blowing up this offseason. The class of 2025 talent picked up a Notre Dame offer back on March 17 and then added offers from Iowa, Ole Miss, Indiana, Missouri, Georgia, Tennessee and most recently Alabama.

247sports.com

Visiting this month. That’ll be his fifth visit in total, and fourth this calendar year.

He’s also visited Michigan and Illinois four times, but has only visited both schools once this year.

It’s very clear to see where this recruitment is trending.

I’m with ya. CB for Ohio State.

 

[EvilleIrish]

That’s a hell of an offer list for a three star.

 

[CanadalovesND]

That’s a hell of an offer list for a three star.

247 is the only site to have him as a three star. The other “Big 3” have him ranked within the Top 250.

It is an impressive offer list for a high school sophomore. He’s also relatively new to football. Channeling my inner Koon here, but this young man is put together quite impressively for a 15/16 year old. Very low body fat percentage. You can tell he’s a solid 240.

Definitely trending towards the next Keeley Rushing. Gonna be wearing a premium price tag this time next year and he’s already been to UGa Bama to get an appraisal… and was offered by both.

Do not want....will not help get a class of 25 5 stars

Maybe we can hold back on this narrative until more substantial information comes out that points to this perhaps being the case.

I heard the 2026 class is the class that will be special anyways…..
