The best center in high school is a silent commit to ND. Good news is his family is already looking for a condo in South Bend. Reason for a silent Commit is because he wants to honor his word and go and visit Florida during Thanksgiving weekend. Chances of him not picking ND is very slim. He is a man of his word so I think when he becomes a Full commit we have nothing to worry about. This will be a big pick up for ND.

Was never a big fan of "silent" commitments. Seems like every year we get one or two which don't work out.

he's #1 in the 2015 class I believe, which would mean 2 ESPN300 JR on the O-Line.

Silent commits don't me a lot but at the end of the day if he's considering Notre Dame it's better than having no shot.

I agree, I think he is a little more then a silent commit when his parents are looking at condos. He wants to be Irish and all he is doing is keeping his word to Florida. I see no problem with that. We bash kids that dont keep their word so I see this as a high character kid.

I would prefer that he commit and tell the coaching staff that he is only going to Florida to keep his word.

Who was that other kid that kept waffling back & forth btwn ND and Florida ... his name escapes me. His dad was a Florida alum, I believe, and kept persuading him to go to Florida. Dammit ... what was his name????

I hope Alex likes watching his team suck horribly on offense.

His parents could be looking for condos, just to look at condos in case their son went to ND? Like someone said, if they are looking, then it means they are interested, does not mean they are going to buy. Fingers crossed, I like the fattys!!

They have condos in Gainesville too. Nice ones. After the last couple of recruiting cycles, its "I'll believe it when I see it."

If an athelete commits but its silent, does it make a sound?
