It seems like the next two home games (Stanford and BYU) will have some elite recruit visitors. Is there a list somewhere of who will be at these games? Also, it seems like a lot of 2013 recruiting action for, what, 3 more spots in this class? Not that I mind, as the more recruits interested in ND the better, but it makes me wonder if ND is just paying for some midwest vacations at this point. Or are the guys they are bringing in so elite that its worth the outside shot you flip someone?

Ultimately my personal opinion is that Tarean Folston is the only one we have a real shot in the long run. The other ones seems to be long shots.

I hear you. OTOH, get the kid on campus, let him see what ND has to offer, and who knows what can happen?

Since we are finally winning, if we keep it up I don't see why it wouldn't attract the interest of more top recruits.

I agree. I don't love the fact that Hawkins and Redfield are USC commits and Willis is visiting with them. My opinion is purely based on what has been reported so far, I am all far minds changing in NDs favor haha.

Because most of them are still too stupid to qualify.

Yeah that's true haha. I remember someone saying dre kirkpatrick could barely speak english during his signing or his grammar was brutal. Either way with the standards here, it takes a lot of guys off our list.

The only top remaining recruit we need to worry about is Alexander and even he is hesitant to leave the comfort of the "football first, education second" state...

ND needs to beat Miami.

 

The recruits will be beating on the door.

 

Great to here about the visitors but all I care about is kicking Miami's butt all over the field...

LJ Moore? Priest Willis? Cole Luke?

 

What is the back-up plan when Alexander doesn't come north?

Moore is at worst 50-50 Irish/Ucla.

for 2013 recruits, I agree with you, but I believe there are some 2014 recruits that are coming and we have a pretty good shot with them.

Winning will take care of everything, especially if we win big. Time for the offense to be offensive.

Absolutely. The guy could even be considered a heavy ND lean right now at this point, if you were to be optimistic.

I also get the feeling that the staff is telling him not to bother.
