It sounds like Dan's top 5 involves most of Big 10 country with a sprinkling of western flavor:

 

PSU, OSU, ND, Michigan, and Stanford - no particular order

 

As for Baldwin, the final 10 are:

 

OSU, GT, Miami, UF, FSU, Pitt, Michigan, ND, Alabama, and Southern Cal - no particular order

Danny really liked Stanford when he visited. Really liked it.

sounds good, but im not sure we get either of them
none of us are sure but in the end I think ND get's McCarthy and I bet it comes down to ND and UM for Baldwin.

 

I can step back from being being an ND fan and not be bias and I can REALLY say that I believe that ND is a better fit for him.

With both of these guys, I think we're in as good a position as we could ask.

 

With Baldwin, we're on the radar, are going to get an official visit (baring some unforeseen idiotic move on ND's part), and can woo him a multitude of ways (big receiver tradition at ND, combo of thin depth chart and a pro style offense, academics, etc). Considering the HS he's from, to ask for anything more than that would be foolish. We've got a shot.

 

With McCarthy, we're amongst his top 3, and also have a good things in our corner (family ties, interest in academics).

 

If I had to guess, I'd say we land McCarthy, but don't land Baldwin, but thats just a guess.

yea Baldwin is a big dude, it isn't very easy for a 6'7 kid to play receiver. I'm sure he has long strides but sometimes that kinda size can slow you down and he's more exposed to injury compared to a smaller, more compact guy.

 

Well, I too think we have a good shot but I'm happy CW and the staff are being upfront with him about where they would play him. Same with Pryor.

I think ND is the only school on his list that he can trust when the staff says, "We want you at WR."

 

There simply won't be room for Baldwin at TE - he would have to beat out a lot of "true" TE's (Ragone, Rudolph, Fauria, Reuland, and Yeatman being the youngest names in South Bend).
