per Rivals... Butler said he is announcing first week of August. I see either FSU or Georgia in his future.

I think we are pretty much out on this one. Next...

My gut says we're out...but...

He did say that it was important to him to 1.have early PT 2. be in agreat atmosphere 3.have great coaches 4. be part of a top-notch recruiting class (sic).....check, check, check and check for ND

What happened to the whole playing with J. Slaughter thing. Gesh. ND just kinda vanished. Doesnt look good for us.

The thing that resonates with me is that he made a comment about being 100% committed when he makes his decision. He said something to the effect that he has learned some things in this whole recruiting cycle and once he makes his decision he will not visit anywhere else unofficially and will only be making one official to the school that he chooses. I dont know but it just made me think he was hinting at something there? Could be me just wanting it to much though.

I don't ever think that was something he said he would do. Never his priority.

LOL, it does sound like CW's theory to recruting this year, but I just dont see it happening either. It would be a nice surprise and get for this class, but its very unlikely. Not saying it wont happen, but unlikely, lol

I would guess U$C or F$U. I have said it before and I will say it again, I don't think he is much of a loss. I would much rather have Floyd, J Jones, Baldwin, or Tate.

In looking at those comments those could be one of two schools. FSU or ND... With SC you would still have Bowden in his ear about playing time. And we haven't given up on him yet. Him knowing about the Floyd and Goodman situation seems to tell me that he is considering them just as much as the others... I'm still not wavering. I believe the rash of committments will definitely open his eyes again... Because ND will once again be flavor of the week before he commits...

Oh yeah got an intriguing phone call today from a different person on campus than the guy with the Hale thing (coincidently was told that the package deal is now off and more schools will factor in and he admitted that he was wrong...) Takes a big man to do that... Still I told him that he would have to give me more verification than just his word next time... Lol.. ANYWAYS back to the point but there will be big news out the ND camp within the next two weeks and it doesn't concern Robinson and Filer... I asked but he would not tell me the information... Saying we should here something big within the next two weeks and its recruiting wise. I asked if it was a commit and he said no but news of some big visits not recently discussed over the internet.... He doesn't post here just reads to see if people are correct in their assumptions... Thats all for now and I'll just leave it at that... But rest assured there is no speculation just news of impending news...

I think Big is relative... In my mind, visits are just visits. It is great that Corwin and Charlie will get to see these guys face to face, but Big News to me is a commitment. I could consider the fact that a really hot blonde talked to me at a bar last night BIG news (in more ways than one...hehe), but when I am out 3 drinks to her and I don't get any lovin', the Big News was nothing more than a little unwarranted excitement in my pants. Anyway... Just my view. He needs to tell us of Big News of a commitment. Is your source Dave Peloquin?

-------If you are right about another suprise visitor besides Bryant, Trevor, Filer, Brown, Sabino and even Patchan who probably isn't anymore then you would've redeemed yourself after the Hale saga, or you may have dug yourself a deeper hole.

i know none of us believe in "moral victories" or anything but i gotta say, i'm just glad we were seriously in on a kid like this! butler is the kind of prospect who wasn't even considering the irish a few years ago. as a few of us said back when butler made some nice comments about ND, it's GREAT to be back in the postion to be *serious* players in the recruiting game again. we haven't seen this since holtz. i for one, am enjoying it, *however* it shakes out! :D

I gotcha knight but I really don't know... If he told me and I spat it over the internet and it wasn't true it hurts him as well as me... He like the rest of us want to hear it told to the public by the prospect...

I understand that and I thought about it for a sec... Because of what happened before but since I am not saying X guy is going to commit or visit on Y date... I think if we heard something out of the ordinary that would qualify... But I'm not going to guess whats going on because I tried with him and failed... I am not going to create a false statement...

But thanks anyway Knight....

I know the Will Hill thing is retarded and not true. I think everyone knows that. ND is not on any of his top 8 lists, but he's going here? I just don't think anyone even takes that serious. As for what you were saying about Hale (Which I can respect a little more because he could've gotten mixed up with EJ and EJ committed.) Keep the good info. coming and as long as it's not an all out lie or even unbeleiveable then you won't be crucified.

I could consider the fact that a really hot blonde talked to me at a bar last night BIG news (in more ways than one...hehe), but when I am out 3 drinks to her and I don't get any lovin', the Big News was nothing more than a little unwarranted excitement in my pants.

Off topic, but give CB a call, he may give you some tips on how to close the deal...

Good work TAA!
