Fuller just picked OSU. 1 down. Damn it. Oh well. He was a long shot anyways.

Yeah he was trending to someone other than Notre Dame for a while and considering the number of guys they lost in the secondary it makes a lot of sense.

not sure.

I think it was an article or rivals or 247sports about it Najee Harris I believe. Basically what I got from the headline is that they were pushing hard for his services.

Yesterday Caleb Kelly tweeted an image of several OU fans giving him a hard time on social media about being selfish, and not making his announcement early so OU can go after someone else if he's not coming there, and that OU could get better players than him anyway. He wrote that he usually doesn't reply to fans via social media, but that this "ignorance" was going to a new level. Maybe he'll consider the fact that if fans treat him that way before he even signs, how will they treat him following a bad play/game/season. I agree that we we look like we're on the outside looking in, but you never know.

GO IRISH!

Assholes who tweet or contact recruits via social media are some of the world's most pathetic losers. I would sincerely hope our fans don't engage in that.

Is it tomorrow yet?
'Twas the night before signing day and all through the corridor. Not a creature was stirring except for Van Gorder. The fax machines were plugged in and loaded for bear in the hopes that the faxes soon will be there.

With Brian and Paqui all snug in their beds with visions of 5*s danced in their heads.
When out of the Gug there arose such a clatter Brian sprang to the window to see what was the matter.

Away to the window he flew in a flash tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

South Bend was all covered with new fallen snow that gave a luster of mid-day to objects below. When what to his eyes did he see, a bunch of recruits with signed letters for thee.

One by one he called them by name, on Davis on Kelly on Robertson and more on McCulloch on Jones and the rest of you all. From the top of the Gug to the top of the dome. All of you all of you all please come home.

One by one their faxes came through with the machines all a buzzing and the coffee fresh brewed.

And as the daylight broke on the campus in South Bend, a sigh of relief set in as NSD was about to end.

Jones and Robertson are the most likely to end up Irish.

So apparently now some schools (a few in the SEC) are crying foul about the equipment truck stunt, saying its an NCAA secondary violation. We're not supposed to advertise our interest in a given recruit. Apparently driving up in a big truck plastered with ND's logo is not okay. I love ND's response, that's just the coach's mode of transportation, so not a violation.

From the land of the bag men, that's rich.

SEC team/s complaining about recruiting violations is hilarious. I love irony

IDK about anyone else, but I am all set with Robertson at this point. This has Eddie V written all over it. Sure he is a great talent, but I want guys who WANT to be here. He seems like he does not and ND is a fall back. Move on IMO. Waiting till the last minute, jumping around and retaking tests for another school. I am all set with these types of Divas....

Drob update: He has canceled his visit to Georgia for this weekend. He gets his SAT scores back today or tomorrow so we will know maybe by this weekend. Its also not a lock that he picks stanford even if he gets in. This was just one of his goals to say he could get into stanford.

Most say ND is the team to beat.
