National Signing Day 2017

Sparty and recruit issues again?

Donovan Winter not signing with Michigan State today - Orlando Sentinel


They had the issues with McDowell's Mom a few yrs ago. They had the QB recruit with assault issues. This one has just gone black.

+ Austen Roberton last year getting kicked out of HS

 

[OCIrish]

Why do I keep coming back and looking at this while laughing????

 

[PANDFAN]

and NOW all of current commits have signed....sweedishblack guy is in

 

[irishnd31]

You beat me to it. LOL. Someone please rep this man for me.

 

[arrowryan]

Everyone has sent in their LOI. Its nice not having anyone pull a Deontay Greenberry

 

[Blaise]

Why I love I went to ND... As much as our standards hurts us getting some top kids, it avoids these stupid drama stories of bad apples in recruiting.. We at least wait til fall camp to get in trouble with law

 

[BobbyMac]

What makes you say that? Not asking for the link, but wondering if you know BK's bookie or just a hunch.

Because there will be someone down in the 100's that they can give a scholarship to.

I'm not really upset with the WR situation, at least #'s wise but the CB position is troubling. Even if it's a Scout team issue. Too important to have the #'s to challenge the WR's in practice.

Just heard Kelly on the radio. He stated there were a few kids we were late on because of New DC and they fit the new system better. He said as of last night it looks like them coming to ND is going to happen. Looks like the 3 we have been talking about is going to happen. We shall see

Amen. Even if we didn't have any of the hopefuls pick the Irish, having a drama free NSD is a pretty big win after a 4 win season.

I hope Kraemer et al. will be ready on the interior in 2018. That'll be a nasty dogfight.

Did they get bumped up to a D at corner because they didn't sign the one legged blind kid out of Vermont?

I think the grades for WR, DT and FS are VERY generous. CB is an F.

just more proof ND rcts slow to act kids

sweedish black guy will start out as strong safety per lyght

Agreed on FS and CB. WR doesn't bother men. I think a good DT and a very good NT is a good class. Here are my tweaks.

I am not the biggest fan of this class (relatively speaking) but it's going to be a top 15ish class so I don't see how it can average out to a B-/C+ in your mind. That would be a below average class.
