I don't care where McKnight goes, as long as it's not USC.

And rumor has it that FSU has picqued his interest. When is he deciding?

That's the thing that hurts about players choosing USC over ND.... we'll have to face them. I'd love for JC to rip apart USC for the next 4 years. Just make them hurt, bleed, cry, that they couldn't get them from their own state...

All in all, I think ND has done pretty well considering our play this past year. Next year, defensive recruiting will still be critical. But I like our chances of getting the juniors we need!

The latest story out of the McKnight camp is that he is trying to decide whether to visit FSU or Alabama this weekend, and whoever is chosen will be the third contender along with LSU and USC. He is supposed to announce his final decision on signing day on ESPN.

Sounds like McKnight is looking for a warmer climate the Indiana. As for Brian Smith good going any defence at this point is an addition ND sorely needed.

I agree Stonebreakerwasgod. Several years ago we were spoog'n over landing a 4 star in DJ Hord. Today we complain we aren't landing the 5 star kids with several 4 star kids aboard. ND will be back with the athletes CW is bringing in.

take a look BS actually is a pretty good ILB, he seems to have faster game speed rather than his 4.7/40 time.

If you go with the Scouts, Inc./ESPN 150 ratings, BS is not just a pretty good ILB, he is an elite ILB, they have him rated as the #4 ILB in the country behind only Galippo, Dewey Elliott, and Chris Strong, and the #10 Linebacker overall. That rates him ahead of some heavily recruited LB's like Lorenzo Edwards, Chris Colosanti, Austin Box, Rolando McClain, Josh Bynes, Kendall Smith, Jordan Campbell, and J'Courtney Williams among others. The LB that Iowa picked up and is trying to say is the reason that Smith became expendable, Bruce Davis, is a 1 star on Scout, and a 3 star on Rivals, and is not even ranked at the LB position by either board. Iowa is just trying to save face on that story; Brian Smith is a big loss for them, and a big pick up for ND. By all accounts Brian Smith had a monster senior season, and is far from being just a fill-in for an open spot. Smith is definitely an elite recruit which makes it all the more baffling as to why Minter never offered him a scholarship.
