A solid pick up. I've read complaints about running back recruiting and not getting the elite prospects and blaming Denson but at the end of the day if he can coach a kid up to an elite level at college does it really matter if the kid was a 5 star recruit.

I'll take the 5 star DE/LB/CB/OL/S/WR/QB over a 5 start RB any day of the week. IMO, it an overrated pos. If you have no OL, IDC how many 5 star RB you have, you aren't going to do shit, and they are not going to make plays on Def either.

Josh Adams was a three star prospect. Greg Bryant was a five star. I agree that the RB position rankings can be heavily skewed by factors out of the control of the player, more than most other positions. As long as we can keep top O-line prospects coming in, I’m not that worried about the RB position.

I agree I'm not worried about it either I've read some people grumbling about it but my feeling was if they can get 5 star production out of a 3 star recruit who cares, it means they can coach.

A four star DE out of Texas is committing tonight to either Notre Dame or Texas. Many believe Notre Dame hold an edge over Texas.

Great addition for Notre Dame they've needed this type of talent on the D-Line.

Notre Dame added Punter Jay Bramblett out of Tuscaloosa Alabama. He's rated as a three star and one of the top punters in the country.

They gave 3 stars to a punter he must be good.

Quite a dilemma. The top recruit in the country at his position, and I hope he never gets used.

I hope so too but at the same time a punter that pins the other team deep in their own end can be very helpful for both the offense and the defense.

And if he’s a qb as you say they can run some fake plays :D

ND gets commitment from 4* Ohio OL Zeke Correll. Has big-time offers from Alabama OSU Stanford, Michigan and Penn St.

Was nervous about Jeff Quinn but seems to be don g a good job closing on elite OL.
