ND just landed 3 star and #22 rank Safety Mykelti Williams. He had a strong Sr year and came in 3rd in mr Football in the state of Indiana. Nice pick up but weird that they went after a 3 star prospects with so many big names on the board still. This gives ND 22 commits so far. Overall nice pick up and we needed some depth at this position.

Word is ND will finish strong in recruiting. Names that look like they will pick ND are:
4 star WR and Under Armor All American Equanimeous St Brown. He is 6'5 220Lbs. Big target for ND QBs. Reason why it looks like he ends up at ND is because ND told 4 star WR Lawrence Cager that their isn't a spot for him anymore. St Brown is who i want. Kid looks like a stud.

4 star TE and #1 TE in the country looks like he is about to switch to ND. This is a GREAT pick up for ND. He has been committed to UCLA for awhile but always wanted to be at ND. 6'4 222lbs is another big target for ND. He needs to add a little weight but that should be no problem. He has visit ND 4 times already. UCLA is already looking at 4 star TE Chris Clark. Another nice pick up here for ND.

Safety- (3 players, ND has room for 1) 3 star Ben Edwards, 4 star Tyree Kinnel and 4 star Justin Reid. ND has told each player who ever commits 1st gets the spot. ND really likes Kinnel but Kinnel is waiting to see who Mich hires. Edwards is waiting on stanford and looks like ND is his back up plan. Reid is new and looks like ND's back up plan if they can't land the other 2, one hell of a back up plan. Kid is good.

4 star RB Ronald Jones. This would be another Big pick up for ND. He just de committed from Okla St. Jones likes ND a lot. Its down to USC and ND. Looks ND out of the SoSo recruiting. Back up plans would be Conkrite, Dexter Williams, and Nick Brossette. SoSo is still an outside shot.

If ND finishes with these guys look for ND to be in the Top 8 in recruiting.

I've seen Mykelti Williams ranked as high as 16 on rivals, #28 on 247, #22 on 247composite, #41 on scout and as low as 71 according to espn. He sounds like another fringe 4 to upper 3 star player to me, but another good addition.

That would be a great ending to the class, I've had my doubts about Soso for a while and the big push at RB kind of confirms that. Even looking at the UAB kid.

Also I've read that Tillery plans on playing DT when he gets to Notre Dame. I don't know if that means they'll look at another o-linemen in this cycle or not.

I think that signals there might be trouble with some other DL targets or current commits and this is to fill a gap, more than we have any other OL commits. We need to restock DL with depth. We saw how disasterous it was when we didn't have it this year, but not at the expense of OL depth. I think we've done well on the OL the past couple of years, but I would rather they have gotten another DL than convert Tillery into one.

That is possible I don't think they'll be adding any more D-Lineman, or none are considering them I don't know about losing prospects.

Listening to the Army AA game, its become more clear than ever that they should just drop any pre-tense that these guys are student atheletes, and that Div. 1 football is nothing but the NFL minor leagues. There is zero commitment to the academic mission anymore, and the schools seem to be okay wih it. One guy said he picked LSU because they rotate RB's to keep him fresh for the NFL. One guy committed to USC, said he was only going to be there 3 years, and I don't think he meant that he was going to graduate early.

The only thing that will ever allow ND to be a true national power is if the NCAA steps up and curbs this out of control attitude that school doesn't matter. Because ND has stuck by that mission, most other schools don't. Hell everybody remember Cardale Jones, who is now hearalded as the next great OSU QB had to say about classes? His only crime was being honest.

Yeah Ross made comment about only staying three years, either he really does only intended on being at USC for three years or he made a slip up while in front of millions. The kid going to LSU seems like a punk he took a few swings at a kid on the field and then they gave him the MVP he should have been tossed from the game, it was a pathetic display.

Our four early enrollees have all signed their financial aid agreements and are on campus to start classes tomorrow. Tevon Coney, Micah Dew-Treadway, Tristan Hoge and Jerry Tillery, welcome!

Here's hoping the athletics dept. has instituted the grandparent wellness program so we can keep em.

It appears that both Day and Stanley are coming back for next year. Or at least, that's the current rumor.
