Recruiting Thread:

[socaljim242]

I'm saying we will never know. You're the one who said working for your team's athletic department is a sign of failure, now you're backtracking. You started backtracking as soon as we pointed out that one of your players did the same thing.

"You're the one who said working for your team's athletic department is a sign of failure,"


I did not make a blanket statement. I wrote
" Chris Zorich sounds like a wonderful human being whos gone through alot and I hate to use him as an example . I'm sure he put his all into it but the guys only job after getting a ND degree and a law degree was at the athletic dept at Notre dame. \Anyway, looking forward to this years season."

So clearly I was talking about one player and one situation. If Tommy goes back to ND and becomes an assistant coach it would not be "a sign of failure" in my opinion. .

Are you two still bickering?

Recruiting is over . Gotta make up stuff to argue about. How about the draft? Highest pick ND or USC? most 1st n 2nd rounders?

 

[poewelch84]

I think Notre Dame will end up with the higher pick in the first round, and 3 taken in the first two rounds possibly 4 in Niklas but I think he ends up a 3rd or 4th rounder.

 

[poewelch84]

The only first rounder for USC that I see is Lee.

Of course you wouldn't make such a blanket statement, because that might include SC players. I forgot its only a problem when it happens to ND players.

 

[poewelch84]

No predictions SoCal? I think Nix, and Martin will be first rounders likely Tuitt too but he might fall to the 2nd round.

Of course you just wanna keep arguing things you just made up. You clearly have a reading comprehension issue.

"So it has nothing to do with the school. USC has it's share (most likely more) of guys who just couldn't cut it in the real world so not anything against ND"

So no it's NOT only a problem when it happens to ND players. LOL. Freaking hilarious .

Sorry dude long day. Hmmmm. I think USC has Lee going before any ND players. I think martin is the first ND player taken followed by Nix. I think Marcus Martin of USC is taken after those two.
I think George Uko and Morgan Breslin go before Tuitt. I think Xavier Grimbl;e gets taken in the third round along with Nikolas but with Troy taken before X.

I still don't get why Niklas left. He would of been a 1st rd to early 2nd rd pick next year.

Well nothing in life is guaranteed. It's like you're on a game show and you just won $100,000. and they offer you a chance to win $250,000. but there's a small chance you can walk away with nothing. Well that's what these players have to deal with but not only do they have to take a chance they don't get hurt they have to put in the time ,a whole year of workouts and practice for free when they could take the sure thing and start getting paid. With the new agreement it's the second contract that pays most of the players.

You're the one who keeps saying that if an athlete works for their athletic department it's a problem, I'm the one who says it is not.

 

[Irish7478]

I think he saw this as an extremely weak TE class. The top TE 's in the class are all underclassmen, and I don't think Niklas knew all of them were coming out until after he had contacted his agent. Had he known how many good TEs were coming out, he might have stayed, but being a 2-3 round pick probably isn't much worse than he'd get next year.

 

[poewelch84]

I think Nix or Martin will go just ahead of Lee.

 

[poewelch84]

With so many good WR it will be hard to pass up on their size and ability.

 

[poewelch84]

Tuitt and Martin are ranked higher according to ESPN and Tuitt is also in their top 25 to U$C's lone player Lee. I don't put too much stock in rankings but ESecPN doesn't usually tout Notre Dame players.

Dude just give up you keep saying things I didn't say and I keep showing you what I did say. You must be smoking pot or getting old but this is getting tired. Move on.

 

[socaljim242]

I put Lee as SCs only first rounder. I only see Nix goinf in the first for ND and after Lee. It's just a guess of course . For all we know Tommy goes before both. Ok maybe not.lol. You think Tuitt has low 2nd early 3rd possibilities?

I actually think Martin ends up in the 1st round, or early 2nd. Tuitt won't last until the 3rd round I'm not positive he'll end up in the 1st but he'll go in the 2nd for sure. I also think Watt, Jones, and Niklas will get drafted in the mid rounds 3-5.

 

[poewelch84]

Also forgot about Shembo he'll likely be a mid round pick as well.

I think it will all depend on Shembo's interviews. If it goes well he could make it into the 4th round. If not, he will be an undrafted free agent.
