Thomas Booker .......... DE MD Offer
Houston Griffith .......... DB IL Offer

Two most important coming?

BobbyMac · May 6, 2017

Would love to see the following commit:

Houston Griffith
Thomas Booker
DJ Johnson
Cam McGrone

Add Jam Franklin too. No need to wait till July. Get the P's on campus that weekend and wrap it up.

That should carry the Irish into the Opening where they get another wave of commits.

As important as any that are likely. But who knows what may develop?

BobbyMac · May 9, 2017

John Branham Jr invited.

With Gervin out Johnson is pretty important.

7 guys coming in is considered an Invasion?

sounds more like a minor foray

IrishLion · May 9, 2017

Landing those top three names would be the dream

It's a month away, still a lot of time for guys to commit to it.

So once Gant chooses pOSU, McGrone is an auto-offer.

But is he on instacommit watch if he gets the offer in-person at II?

I'd think so. I'm not sure they haven't already told him they're gonna offer at Invasion.

The staff has a really good chance to gain a lot of media momentum back with a strong haul at Invasion that could include (if invited/offered):

Cam McGrone
Houston Griffith
Thomas Booker
DJ Johnson
Paul Maola
Anthony Torres
Avery Young
Jacob Lacey '19
George Karlaftis '19

and Jam Franklin if his schedule is forced to be shuffled.

I'll put the O/U for commits at 3.5 unless some combo of Griffith. Booker and/or Franklin get at large invites for The Opening. We should know today regarding Franklin and Booker.

NDdomer2 · May 11, 2017

so i know once upon a time someone said they were working on tracking our results from these type of events.

e.g. if someone camped as a junior, did they return as senior, did we land committment etc.

I take it that never got finished or maybe isnt done yet, would be interesting to see results

So, something that I wasn't aware of, until recently, was that McGrone tore his ACL at the end of last season. My guess, the staff is waiting to see how he moves post injury. Hopefully he's able to work out at II.

Wow that is pretty quick to turn around and work out for an offer. Not everybody is Tranquil or Crawford

Correct. That would be my handiwork.

He torn it the night before the Stanford game last season. That's why you see him on crutches on his unofficial last year.

I read somewhere that he's already started working out on full release.

8 months by the time II comes around. I think he's doing everything but full contact right now.

Here's a story from the Indy Star:

Standout area football recruit Cameron McGrone ready to get back to work

Curry Benn

Corner from New Orleans will be at the II

Curry Benn, Landry-Walker, Cornerback

The Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge will be held in Indianapolis on Friday June 9th, the day before Irish Invasion.

There's gonna be a lot of talent just 2.5 hrs away.
