Who's next to commit? How many slots?

[ryno 24]

good right up very interesting

 

[NDinL.A.]

His dad told ISD that an ND coach (I forget who) was there to see him recently, and the coach told Sterling that ND wants him BADLY. Papa Sterling said that ND will get a visit in the fall (despite the fact that Sterling is about to commit to a school - most likely Georgia). Sooooo.....expect this recruitment to draaaaaaggggg out, even with the upcoming announcement...

Rivals article on who the prospects are for the final OL spot. Looks like Cook, Hobbi, and Austin are the best-chance targets as of now.

scratch austin off the list! hopefully we will get either cook or asiata (no offer yet)! it would be nice to get another 300 pounder!

I read somewhere that Kelly is really targeting a strong right tackle candidate to take control of the power side. To e honest I am very impressed with the commits we have now on the line and additional ones are a bonus to me. He dif say that de was another position of importance so with us really getting a great jump on the oline I wouldn't be shocked if he shifted a little more to the dline and or safety. I don't mean he will ignore the oline but might just ease up a bit to concentrate mre on the oter side of the ball. Just an idea because I have no idea what the plans are. It is exciting though huh fellas

Recruiting: Kelly's charisma drives Notre Dame - MaxPreps News

Article about ND recruiting status thus far.

Interesting notes:

One of the most recent additions to Kelly's recruiting haul was Conor Hanratty, an offensive lineman from New Canaan (Conn.). According to Hanratty's head coach, Lou Marinelli, Kelly's charisma seemed to seal the deal.

"He (Hanratty) hadn't met Kelly, but once he met him, he said he wanted to commit right now," Marinelli said.

On Huggins:

Rich Hansen, head coach at St. Peter's Prep (Jersey City, N.J.), is no stranger to Notre Dame recruiting his players. This year, it's star running back Savon Huggins who Notre Dame covets.

"I think the things that Savon is looking for are all present there," Hansen said. While Hansen pointed out Notre Dame's storied tradition and history as major selling points for the Irish, it was once again Kelly's recruiting charm that seemed to stand out.

"He's a dynamic kind of guy, very, very much in touch with his players. I think he's someone who will be well respected and well received in high school offices around the country."

I really hope we get him

wouldnt you like to be a fly on the wall when he is in a high school hc's office with a prospect and he is laying out his pitch! to view his charisma and approach first hand would be great!


New Board
1.) lynch
2.) one of many O-lineman offered
3.) ????

I don't think French is going to commit anytime soon.

Lynch is a great possibility once he visits with his mom

Daniels, if he get his grades up

i had read on one the articles posted here a while back that French was hot for us but in his profile the consensus does look like he is waiting for some more offers to come in. Plus the fact that he wants to play offense and we are looking at him as an olb could hurt as well! i was hoping he was one that we could jump on early but if atmosphere and academics are important to him then we will have a shot before it is over with!

Notre Dame Football - Recruiting Week in Review

Uno mas.

On Worley:

“We’ve been blessed here and the one we got now, there is no doubt about this one,” Wallace enthused. “He’s 6-5, he’s 210, the greatest kid in the world. He has a 4.1 g.p.a., been offered by everyone. He’s special. So much impeccable character, absolute integrity, great family, great kid. I mean he’s something. He’s a good one.”

On Blackwell:

“As a tenth grader he was such an incredibly raw talent,” said Rollinson. “A mixture of speed, incredible speed. He’s got a stride length like no other and he looks like he’s gliding and he’s just covering ground. He can jump out of the gym.”

In addition to Notre Dame he currently holds scholarship offers from California, Florida State, Oregon State, South Carolina, Tennessee, UCLA and Washington. A few favorites have started to emerge.

“I like California, Notre Dame, Washington, all my offers,” Blackwell informed. “I’m just waiting the recruiting process out. I’m probably going to take all five of my visits. I’m looking for a place that has a foundation for grades and a great education program, and a place I’d be able to play right away.”

 

[Ben E.]

well i think ND meets all of Blackwell's priorities! Mr Blackwell please sign on the line that is dotted! lol!

 

[johnnykillz]

Let's hope we get Starling, Worley, and Blackwell.

Let's take them all... I really hope we get another Golden caliber speed kid. Last season was exciting when he got the ball! I realize we may alreay have one, but one is none and two is one.

Let's spread that field, Go Irish!

 

[ACamp1900]

right now I would give my left nut to see ND consistently get five star Defensive front seven guys... straight up, that has been the difference the past ten years

[sportallyr]

I love that the writer feels that Lynch and Daniels will be Irish
before summer is over. Those are MUST gets in this class.

 

[ab2cmiller]

Daniels may want to commit this summer, but if he has grade issues he may not be able to commit until those concerns are straightened out

 

[ryno 24]

i agree with daniels and lynch but who do they think from the quarterback position and which o linemen do think will be in

 

[IrishInFl]

I just noticed on ISD that Lyndell Johnson is under the offered area. When did this happen? I thought he was under the prospect area still.

 

[TerryTate]

Confirmed on Rivals.

I like his offer list.

6'3; 4.46 - 40
Diesel safety with some added weight
