Keys, Patterson, and DJ Brown are all extremely good pickups. C'Bo we'll see but we needed a RB just for depth/practice purposes. You never really know with RBs who might develop.

Overall, great way to fill out the depth chart. Most well-rounded recruiting class ND has signed since the '13 class.

In the past few weeks never, at any point, did I think Boykin was coming to Notre Dame.

Props to ISD for being on top of the fact that there was still a lot of good communication there last night and this morning.

With the additions of everyone we got today, I got our scholarship count at 89.

EDIT: With Boykin its 90.

EDIT2: Actually its only 89. Had someone listed twice. If someone else wants to count to make sure I'm right, please do.

Yep, was gonna say if UF was truly out, based on ISD's podcast I would think he was a ND lean

Pretty sure he is referring to Boykin... as he has not mentioned him yet. Probably just waiting for the ok to speak on him

Trying to figure out what he meant too. He said "some more" -- which I read as more than one. Then he said "some more information." Meh.

In a response to a question about how the class said he was really personally involved in the recruiting --

-Only gets one in-home visit, so that didn't change, but with ESP it was more organized
-Easier to be personally involved with more guys when you can kind of do it in two waves with the ESP
-More active on Twitter DM'ing recruits... said even if that's not personal, it's a good way to stay in touch
