with good news about Etienne Sabino, rumors about Robert Blanton and Steve Hare updates. Hmmm, I wonder what they could be?

Just buzz maybe without any base.

 

Rumor - Blanton's Dad doesn't like idea of long drive to ND.

 

Rumor - Sabino final 3 are ND, NC and FSU.

 

Blah.

damn. anyone know? if so, send me a PM.

 

and whose Steve Hare?

I know they've been going pretty hard after Sabino... Blanton rumors are nothing too new, so no real surprise there... Hare? Is that some recruiting analyst I just don't know about, or is that supposed to be Shayne Hale? *Shrugs*

 

It would be something if Filer doesn't have a spot with the Irish, after all the chatter of him "silently verballing" to ND.

 

Lets say the Sabino rumors become something, and he verbals. Do we sacrifice an offer at, say, DL, or DB, and take in a 5th LB?

It would be Filers own fault for not showing any love back and missing his ride, im not waiting for him.

not sure. we would probably take our max if sabino and filer committed.

I think the staff would take 5, and I think they actually will. You need #'s at LB with our new scheme, I think we can all agree on that

 

I don't see how you can or would say no to a Sabino type player or a Filer. I know people can mention it would eat into next yr's schollies, but some kids you can't turn away. Filer and Sabino along with others would foot that bill.

 

Just my 2 cents

steve hare is a writer for irish illustrated, not a prospect. Making Sabino's top three doesn't excite me. News that he planned a visit would be better.

 

I desperately want to land Blanton. He's a stud, ability to play safety and corner. I hope he or newman is our next commit. If we even get close to Blanton it's all Corwin Brown.

steve hare works for II and Ohiovarsity

Rumor - Sabino final 3 are ND, NC and FSU.

landing sabino and filer would be awsome but unless anything has changed i think UNC is probbly still the leader for sabino. i think sabino would fit at DE/OLB for ND then he would at OLB in a 4-3 like UNC, not to mention the versitility will go a long way come draft day.

The rumor was started by a poster on II who is perceived to be very reliable and in the know. I believe he is from the Ohio State site. He actually said that there is speculation that ND is in the lead for Sabino. Again, purely rumors.

Actually, I saw a quote from a FSU guy that said ND is in the lead for Sabino.

Interesting... I'm slowly working my way out of the "We can't afford to take 5 Linebackers" bunker... not there yet, but getting there...

 

With this kind of Sabino chatter, a chance at Steve Filer, and the promise from Arthur Brown to at least make an unofficial visit? Things could get interesting in the near future...*does diabolical finger tapping*

 

Now I think we can start to imagine why Jonathan Meyers, and Jon Major, didn't receive offers...

Actually, I saw a quote from a FSU guy that said ND is in the lead for Sabino.

That poster is legit, the dude has his contacts. Sabino wants to get out of Florida, we're in great shape here.

This might put more pressure on Filer to commit if he really wants to come here.

Actually, I saw a quote from a FSU guy that said ND is in the lead for Sabino.

 

I could be wrong on the OSU part, it could have been FSU because he made a ton of Florida comments.

i hope the rumors are right about sabino, the kid would make an amazing OLB.

If Sabino, Filer and Brown wanted to commit, I think CW would take them all and not worry about next year. These guys are too good to pass on with a hope to land someone as good next year.
