'27 AL LB Ellis Mcgaskin (Offer)

[ND7983]

Sounds like this could be very unexpected. He is class of '27 so maybe some question if this commitment will stick.

Kids in the ‘27 class are committing now. I’m surprised more haven’t committed to ND yet. I think ND isn’t letting most of them. ND is pretty much already done with ‘26, so they can get to ‘27.
Anyone they take now are kids they really want. They will only take 2-3 LBS, so I’m guessing they really want this kid.
They will save a spot for Witten of course.

Because the kid asked them all to keep it quiet.
That’s why I said I don’t like that one guy going all over Twitter about it.
If a kid is announcing, and On3, 247, ISD, IB, Rivals, all say nothing about it, it’s because the kid asked them not to.
What happened, happened, days ago. The sites all know.
That’s why I mentioned to pay attention to him. At that time, I didn’t know when he was going public.

Loy said he likes ND in his typical code.

The LSU guy put in a pick for ND too this morning.

My point is, Tom publicly called it Saturday.

Was real sneaky to say pay attention to a kid that was reported to be announcing soon and likes ND lol

Did anyone know he liked ND? I didn’t until last week. I didn’t even know who he was. When I was told what I was told, I didn’t even know what was going on? LOL
I don’t think anybody really did. That’s why I said pay attention to him. And I had no idea it was today. With ‘27 kids, they might contact the staff & the staff tells them to hold off for a bit. I thought it would be after all the July 4th weekend announcements.

Yes? ISD has been consistent on ND's position. On3 even had quotes from him being high on ND. I looked through IB and the only thing I could find post pot of gold was that "Bullough was in Alabama to check in on Ellis". Sometimes other sites have it first, not always going to be on IB.

I also enjoy the "really crappy that these people on Twitter will post a gif to ruin a kid's moment" but then posts "pay CLOSE ATTENTION to this guy" on an internet message board in the same context lol

And why would he think it would be better to hold off until after all the July 4th announcements? Tell us you’re telling us something without telling us your telling us something.

Yeah. 17 people on reading the 2027 IE thread is the same as posting on Twitter.

Who said anything about IB?
Oh, you are one of the people who thinks everyone who says something gets it from IB? Cute. No. It might shock you to know that some people have family members/close friends, etc… at ND, and get info straight from the horse’s mouth.

 

[NDVirginia19]

I prefer to get my info straight from the horse's sphincter on IE

 

[GrangerIrish24]

Yeah. 17 people on reading the 2027 IE thread is the same as posting on Twitter.

And the people on Twitter post what they see on a message board. So….

 

[IrishLion]

Yeah. 17 people on reading the 2027 IE thread is the same as posting on Twitter.

Some might say the transgression is worse, as it's directly in a thread related to a specific name, whereas the Twitter bat signals are isolated, attached to a name only through the context of timing...

But I'm just a dude on a message board with no sources of my own

I said IB. The kind of arrogance to assume because you didn’t know that no one else knew typically comes from one direction.

The best part of IE is the aggregation of info by normal people who are also diehard fans. Playing the “I drop hints” card is lame to people who likely have subscriptions to all the sites and can get the subliminal posts from Singer/Loy/Coach D.

Pushing his commitment to 2pm.

Thanks for the heads up!

Eastern?

 

[notredomer23]

Alabama is CST so I don’t think he pushed anything

 

[Ricochet]

Alabama is CST so I don’t think he pushed anything

Exactly to him it's a 1pm announcement it was and still is just not thinking many hear times for such things and just think EST.

 

[Irish Man3]

Just my simple opinion, if the kid didn’t want ANY publicity for his commitment…… he could’ve just committed rather than posting on his social media and sparking speculation.

 

[Irish du Nord]

Yeah. 17 people on reading the 2027 IE thread is the same as posting on Twitter.

17? Uh, try 40…

Well?

This kid’s film is damn good. Freeman and the rest of the staff are absolutely killing it. A lot of fun being an Irish fan these days!
