I didn't realize #winning was a 3rd grader's typical Saturday morning.

Simply said, USC is rolling. Getting Town is just another stud addition to a pretty nice class. Not to mention, it's likely they get Mama and JuJu.

Any chance of Dee Dee or Boo Boo or TuanTuan or RhiRhi or NeNe or Paw Paw or CiCi or BoBo or WaWa or ChimChim...?

Cici is making pizza, Bobo is at UGA, and Luke slept inside TaunTaun to stay warm. The rest are unaccounted for.

5. Notre Dame

Commits: Quenton Nelson (Red Bank, N.J./Catholic), Alex Bars (Nashville, Tenn./Montgomery Bell), Sam Mustipher (Olney, Md./Good Counsel), Jimmy Byrne (Cleveland, Ohio/St. Ignatius)

The offensive tackle pair that is coming in to South Bend is one of the best duos in any signing class in the country. Nelson has been outstanding in camps, games and All-American settings and Bars is one of the top talents in the southeast at offensive tackle. Both are ranked by the 247Sports Composite among the Top 10 at the tackle position. Mustipher and Byrne are both stout on the interior as well and the four are all starting caliber prospects for the Notre Dame program.

You all know my feelings about Mora and his UCLA staff but holy cow they have a chance to have a crazy good finish to this class. Kenny Young, Malachi Dupree, Budda Baker, and Rashaan Evans are very real possibilities. They are still in it for Solomon Thomas, Quick, Trey Lealaimatafao, Davon Godchaux, Kallen Ballage, Adoree Jackson, JuJu Smith, and Damian Mama. As a parting gift I say Fuck Mora!

That's actually brilliant. A great way to begin to work towards being Mexico's team and build the brand. In the coming decades that'll be a big deal. With the massive Catholic populations, Notre Dame should look into playing there or in Brazil's Olympic stadium.

247 gave ND the top TE class for 2014. So we now have the #5 LB class, #5 OL, and #1 TE. Am I missing any?

Nope but we additionally have the #10 WR class without IM or Quick. If we get one of them I would put the Brent, Holmes, IM/Quick combo over the #5 OU Mark Andrews, Dallis Todd, and Jeffrey Mead class.

Just for fun lets predict where the top 100 uncommitted prospects and guess where they end up. Rivals rankings

Adoree Jackson- USC
Joe Mixon- flips to UCLA
Rashaan Evans- Auburn
Malachi Dupre- UCLA
Damian Prince- Florida
JuJu Smith- USC
Malik McDowell- MSU
Ermon Lane- FSU
Lorenzo Carter- Georgia
Solomon Thomas- Stanford
Damien Mama- USC
Braden Smith- Auburn
Steven Parker- Oklahoma
Travonte Valentine- Miami
Budda Baker- Washington
Michiah Quick- Oklahoma
Derrick Nhadi- Virginia Tech
Kenny Young- UCLA

Also for some reason I don't think Bo Scarborough ends up at Bama

UCLA is either gonna have a huge day or swing and miss. UCLA has really made amazing strides on the recruiting trail. Mora can flat out recruit whether its legal or not. Also helped that USC was down with numbers. The fact they got guys like listed below interested in them is pretty great job by there staff.
Solomon Thomas
Rashaad Evans
Jabrill Peppers
Malachi Dupre
Marlon Humphrey
Kyle Allen
Zach Whitley and so on

Because a couple years ago they would haven't even sniffed UCLA
