Julius Irvin, 4* 2018 DB, Anaheim (Servite), CA (COMMITTED)

Rumor on WW board is that Irving dropped USC. How many DBs are ND going to get this year?

ND still wants at least one more, but would take 2 if it were Irvin & Gordon. Boykin is the third guy if they don’t get Irvin or Gordon.

The messages being put out are all over the place on who is leading.

Even after talking to his dad last night, the ND guy says he isn’t sold. He thinks USC is still in the lead after talking to multiple people. The dad wants ND because of Lyght & USC jerking them around. But the kid wants USC. UW falls in the middle. They are giving him the attention USC isn’t, & a lot closer to home.

The USC people are saying they gave him some love & he pledged his commitment to them.

The reason there is a big ND pick is because he announced his date immediately after Lyght met with him, but I think that was just a coincidence.
The ND guy still used the word “SHOCKED” if Irvin chose ND.

I’m still calling it USC/UW battle.

Is Irvin visiting USC this weekend? I think that will be pretty telling if USC is in it or not.

Apparently Woodbey is on a visit to USC, don't know if it changes anything if he flips.

This is exactly why I hate tOSU, ND, Bama and Oklahoma (or whoever else) recruiting the west coast.

If those schools butt out, UW’s place in the pecking order is much higher. But when Bama comes in and takes the top RB from the west, then we move down a tier.

Anyway, so the dad wants ND and the kid wants USC. And we are somehow still “in it” because of... ... ...

We are the 7 with the good personality and we are up against two Bruce Waynes.

Lake didn’t close him early. We have to close early or we are fucked.

How long will it take to become a Bruce Wayne? We probably won't win a national championship until we can recruit at a higher level. How long will that take?

See Clumpson.

Didn't Clumpson have 13 ACC championships before Dabo?

My first thing I would do is work on the OOC schedule.
Schedule teams across the country, big name schools, & build the brand.
Even if you lose some, kids love the idea of playing at big time venues for everybody to see.
