    I guess I should warn you, if I turn out to be particularly clear, you've probably misunderstood what I've said.

  • Thanks! McGlinchy said that he was told that we're only taking 4 OL, but he could be committing within a month. His family really wants him at ND, but he knows the numbers situation and he's not ready to commit at this time. I don't see anymore OL committing to us right away, so he'll have his chance to look around to see other schools. I still like our chances there, which could leave Johnson out of the mix... We would absolutely take Ethan Pocic no matter when he decides to commit IMO. Hope that helps, good luck to PSU this year, congrats on getting Brenneman--STUD!

  • Thanks. Will be interesting to see if McGlinchey makes it out of next weekend uncommitted.

    For realz!!!! I wouldn't be surprised to see us take Johnson if he decides he want to join. Hoping we tell Munger and Latham we'll take them on the DL. I hate the fact we offered them as OL.

    Very underrated current 3* who is likely to get a major bump in the rankings as time goes on IMO. Word is he loved his visit. On the plus side for us his cousin is Scott Booker who joined the Irish coaching staff this year. Booker is getting rave reviews as a recruiter so far and the comfort level in recruiting his cousin certainly can't hurt our chances. If we land Johnson, oline recruiting would be done almost certainly.

    With mcglinchey to nd, it's probably a pitt psu battle with wvu in third. He's always said he wanted to stay very close to home. He's prob the recruit psu most needs right now.

    Is it now PSU's turn to leave Meyer with scraps?

    He more tham likely end's up in state college imo. Why in the he!! would you choose pitt or wvu over P.S.U?? The Nitt's already have a stud QB & TE in the fold. Also I can see Foster swaying P.S.U's way after he see's how much they air the ball out under O'Brein.

    Wouldn't count out ND with his cousin Booker being a coach on the staff. The question becomes will we take a 5 OL. Johnson is suppose to be visiting for three days this week.

    It's only right as much as he poached them last year.

    I wouldn't count them out, but I would bet highly against it from a numbers perspective. I think ND would be 3rd even without MM just because of how he's stressed distance. Some kids just never want to leave home and he seems like one, cousin or no cousin. Hope I'm right AND that he doesn't want to go to Pitt.

    So basically tell McGlinchey that ND lied to him and they're really taking 5 OL?

    I wouldn't count them out either outside of that fact...and how many OT's do you need? That would be four in one class right there. Have to imagine ND will still recruit Johnson until their current guys sign, but don't see them being heavily in it for now.

    Yeah, I think it would set a bad tone to take an extra OT now, especially because ND hasn't taken a lineman under 6'6". Not only would that probably piss off McGlinchey, but ND needs interior linemen more than tackles now.

    Also, GO BILLS! Super Mario WOOOOO!!!! I'm more excited about this coming year than I have been in a looooong time.

    Another Bills fan? And a Michigan fan at that, you rock brother! Go Bills and no doubt this is our year for playoffs.

    ND joins Michigan in having a MONSTER weekend. Congrats guys, happy to see these guys not at tOSU.
