As of right now, the headline with respect to the visitor list heading into the weekend would have to be that nine of ten verbal commitments will be on campus only Rashad Kinlaw will be missing. The list gets kicked off with a certain tight end prospect that tried to make covert plans for a last second visit, but spilled the beans on Twitter.
He will be on campus until Thursday before heading to Columbus to watch his brother play in tOSU's spring game. The Irish are making some good impressions and a late push to get a commitment, as he is set to announce April Montelus will start his trip early and remain in town for the spring game.
He likely projects as an interior linemen after a big run of tackles and the staff has said they could take a fifth offensive linemen this year. James Onwualu WR - St. Paul, MN. Word on the street is that the current verbal commitments really wanted to meet the OFD crew in person , thus the huge response in attendance. By the way, he just dominated in the Rivals. The staff appears to be sticking to one RB this cycle.
Green recently visited both Florida and Florida State for their spring games and distance may be a factor here. Commit : James Onwualu , Corey Robinson. There are still a ton of outstanding offers to this group, but the dust appears to be settling on a few names for what appears to be the remaining spot at WR. The top name on the board right now is probably Laquon Treadwell Crete, IL , who appears to be done with spring visits.
Demarcus Robinson Fort Valley, GA is the other top name right now after his visit to campus a few weeks ago. Heuerman visited in early April and is on campus again this week. He will be announcing his decision at the end of the month. I think the Irish are a little behind Miami and Ohio State at the point, but anything can happen over the next week or two. If the Irish miss on the remaining targets on board which is possible , look for current commits Jacob Matuska or Corey Robinson to move to the TE position.
The staff appears to be done here, but still has several offers out to prospective offensive linemen. This came as a relief to many, as there were subtle concerns about the integrity of the line after defensive stars Manti Te'o and Kapron Lewis-Moore moved on to the NFL.
Speaking of Te'o, he was on the sidelines cheering on the Irish and told Alex Flanagan of NBCSN in a sideline interview that he thought the defense would be "great" this season and that he expected Prince Shembo and Louis Nix to provide leadership.
In a game that was not exactly action-packed, Jones displayed flashes of greatness while fielding passes from Golson and Rees. While nothing he did was blow-your-hair-back amazing, he proved that he can catch the football in traffic and make a decent run once the ball is in his hands. This is important because with star tight end Tyler Eifert out of the picture, Jones will be the go-to receiver. Unfortunately, his performance on special teams was not as inspiring; he actually managed to drop a fair-catch punt.
Notre Dame ranked a dismal 93rd in kickoff returns and th in punt returns last season, according to the NCAA.
