[connor_in]

I have just confirmed the silent verbal we have all been speculating about:

soooooooooooooooooooo, it's been a like 5 hours, anything new coming in?

 

[WeisWeisBaby]

John, how good is your kid's foot so far? Think he'll be ready to kick into the wind by gametime tomorrow?

No, and there hasn't been in a few days, and I wouldn't expect any new info untill Sunday at the earliest, but if Jon's team wins this weekend I wouldn't count on anyting comming out for a while.

Right now I don't think we have a silent. That doesn't mean we are far off though. We lead with Page and Baldwin.

If Page was a silent commit, I do NOT think he would cancel his officials till he was ready to announce because if he canceled his officials shortly after a visit to ND, it would basically scream to the whole world that he's going to ND.

Page has officials lined up for 11/30 with S. Carolina and 1/11 with Clemson.

With all that said, I still don't think Page is a silent because I don't think he would make such a big effort to try to attend BOTH the S. Carolina and Clemson games this weekend.

Page said he has no favorite. He will attend the Wake Forest at Clemson game Saturday afternoon and will try to get back to Columbia in time for the Florida at USC game.

He does have a favorite.

It was Notre Dame Stadium. It was the facilities. It was the locker room, the campus, getting former Heisman Trophy winner Tim Brown’s autograph on the sideline, meeting a big-wig from NBC and just about everything else. A.C. Flora four-star offensive lineman Kenneth Page said it crossed his mind for a second about pulling a Michael Floyd and verbally committing to Notre Dame.

Good info on Page. thanks.

i don't know if anyones brought this up but i thought Baldwin insisted he wouldn't commit until NSD

Baldwin hadn't planned to announce untill NSD, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't commit before then. Plus if there's only one spot left and it's first come first serve then sometimes plans change.

We have 4 spots left, correct? (21 current verbals and 25 are allowed) Do we have any extra scholies from this year that would allow early enrolees (the ee's would apply to this year)?

There's going to be at least one EE (Cwynar), and it's rumored that one of the players we're currently recruiting (maybe the silent verbal) also wants to enroll early.

 

[SoCalDomer]

Then we shouldn't have a problem with not enough scholarships right? We have two lineman, two recievers and a rb remaining that we're actively recruiting?

well a lot of people are speculating charlie said we would only take 3 wide receivers in this class so that would leave only one more wr scholarship

With current young WR's on-hand, plus Goodman and Floyd, I would suspect one more would be it for this year.

That may be CW's thinking, but if another WR not named baldwin were to commit then Baldwin committed, I doubt CW would turn him away.

I really think that all depends on whether or not he told other current commits or recruits that he would only take X number of WR's. If he just set that number before the season and didn't make any promises to other kids than I agree with you. If he promised other kids that he would only take 3 wr's this class than we have already seen is recent years (i.e. jones, frazer and no mustain) that he won't go back on his word.... and as we have seen this year that is a good thing. I think kids might be catching on to the Pete Carrol's and Meyer's of the world that will say whatever they think recruits want to hear.

If the silent wants to enroll early, and he is in fact a silent then it isn't Baldwin. Baldwin is also an elite basketball player.

 

[GoshenGipper]

To my knowledge Baldwin will not be an EE, but I haven't heard the EE in connection with the silent outside of people speculating while trying to put the pieces together. But the good news here seems to be that the rumor about a silent verbal is gaining legs. Earlier today RJ Blanton's stepdad who goes by E-Man dropped this hint about it. He asked if they (meaning the fans/posters he was talking to) were "ready for a surprise this weekend?". While he wouldn't give up any specific names he did drop another hint that it would be "quite a catch". To me that sound's like a WR.

 

[greenandblue]

I just realized how to find out who commited. The last recruit to meet with Braxton Cave is him.

Well that sounds promising, and exciting. Did that happen on this board? i went into the member list and searched for E-man and it didnt show up.

Nope. Gotta go now; I gotta race like a pee horse.
