    Well ND has picked up a verbal from 4 star RB Giovanni Bernard from Florida. Don't know much about him other than he is 5'9", 198lbs runs a 4.5 and has offers from Alabama, Florida, Fl St, Neb, Ten, Miami, and so on. With that kid of attention there must be something there one would think. 8)

    Good pickup for the Irish. He was one of the top players in Fla, that says something about him. Looks like we lost out though on Cody Riggs, but maybe he'll want to bring Brandon Linder with him to South Bend. That would be OK with me!! :)

    I keep reading that the Irish are poised for an excellent class this year. It seems that Charlies gamble on bringing in so many players for the USC game payed off. A lot of kids left with very good impressions.

    There are 2 kids who I am hearing have done a 180 on the Irish are Seantel Henderson and Kyle Prater both seemed to be not interested at all in the Irish and now are supposedly very interested. A lot is left to be determined but if (big if) the Irish finish 10-2 this class could be top 5 or better when it's all said and done.

    Got to give it to the big guy, he works his ass off. If he'd only made a great choice for DCoord when he came onboard there is no telling what he might have accomplished.
