Big23Head 2,431 Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 The II podcast yesterday talked about Olmstead and Carroll both as fits at ND and high likelihood to end up at ND. They both visit this fall and both fit the mold. Would be 2 top OT prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big23Head 2,431 Posted September 5, 2017 Author Share Posted September 5, 2017 Notre Dame set to host elite junior back Notre Dame will host top junior prospects this weekend, including Chez Mellusi. The Naples, Fla., running back earned an offer from the Irish on June 29 and has been hoping visit South Bend ever since. Notre Dame reached out on the first day of the contact period to set that trip in motion for the four-star athlete. “(Notre Dame) has sent me edits, then I talked to coach (Autry) Denson on (Sept. 1),” Mellusi said. “I told him I had a bye week this week and he said the Georgia game would probably be the best game for me to visit. That’s just how it happened.” The Notre Dame coaching staff has done a thorough job in recruiting Mellusi, putting them in a strong position with the versatile South Florida standout. “(Notre Dame) is going to be the first real school I’m visiting and as of right now, they’re definitely on the top because they’ve kept the most contact, they’ve sent the most stuff and coach Denson is just a really cool guy. He’s really upfront with me. I want to visit and get a feel for it and I’ll see if I like it.” The 6-foot, 175-pound running back has a pair of visits in the works following his Notre Dame unofficial. “I’m pretty sure I’m going to North Carolina in November,” Mellusi said. “I might be going to USC in October, they’re a pretty good school too.” Hurricane Harvey is set to disrupt the Naples area toward the end of the week, possibly causing problems for Mellusi’s trip to Indiana. “I’m pretty sure I’m coming by Friday night,” Mellusi said. “Hopefully this hurricane doesn’t mess anything up. We’re under a state of emergency right now. But they don’t really know if it’s going to hit us yet because they say it’s too early to tell. If it hit us, it’s going to be pretty bad.” If all goes as planned, Mellusi will travel to South Bend with his father, who is also high on Notre Dame and what they have to offer. “I’m going up there with my dad,” Mellusi said. “As soon as I told him I got invited to the game, he said, ‘oh, we’re going then.’ He’s really big on education. All schools are pretty good at football, all the Division 1 schools. But what else do they have?” Mellusi is well-informed on what the Irish have in store but can’t wait to take it all in this week. “I’m looking forward to meeting the guys and asking them some questions, how Notre Dame treats them and stuff like that,” Mellusi said. “I want to see the campus and the facilities but I know the campus is beautiful already. I just want to see it.” Mellusi rates as the No. 204 overall prospect and the No. 9 at his position in the South in the 247 Composite rankings. He also holds offers from Arizona, Boston College, Kentucky, Miami, Michigan, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Rutgers, USC and Virginia. Aside from Mellusi, the Irish will also host key junior prospects David Bell and Joseph Anderson this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big23Head 2,431 Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Notre Dame to host top all purpose back Notre Dame will host Eric Gray on Saturday, the No. 2 all-purpose back in the 2019 class, per the 247 Composite rankings. Standout Eric Gray told Irish Illustrated that he will visit Notre Dame this weekend with his father. The Memphis, Tenn., junior all-purpose back is coming off a spectacular sophomore season of more than 2,300 yards rushing and 43 touchdowns. The 5-foot-10, 185-pound prospect shows impressive top speed, acceleration and balance, often beating defenders to the edge and churning up big yards. The Irish will likely be looking for a perimeter to follow commitments Markese Stepp and Jahmir Smith, a pair of bigger backs who excel as downhill rushers. Gray first hit Notre Dame’s radar before his sophomore season. “They’ve been sending letters and posters since last year and a lot of different stuff and been reaching out to my coaches, trying to get me to come up to a game last year but I just couldn’t make it up there,” Gray said. “This year, they sent it again to my coaches, my coaches sent it to me so I was like, ‘I got to get up there.’ And this was the perfect week to come and watch them play Georgia. “They said that I’m a big prospect for them and they wanted me to get down there and see what the Fighting Irish had to offer.” Notre Dame’s 422 yards rushing in its lopsided defeat of Temple last week caught Gray’s attention. Assessing that punishing ground game in person on Saturday will be critical. “Notre Dame has impressed me a lot,” Gray said. “I like their run game. This will be my first time actually get up there watching Notre Dame. That’s a big reason why I wanted to go, to see their facilities and actually watch them play and see how their offense works and see if I can fit into their run scheme and things like that.” Gray has a loaded fall schedule set, including several key visits. “I’ve got quite a few (visits) lined up,” Gray said. “Next week, I’ll be staying in Memphis for the Memphis-UCLA game. On the (Sept. 30), I’ll be going to Tennessee versus Georgia. October 7, I’ll be going to Ohio State-Maryland. And then Vanderbilt-Kentucky and then Ohio State-Michigan.” With next spring’s early official visit window, Gray plans to sort through his recruitment in the coming offseason and bring it to a close prior to his senior year. “Since the new rule, you can go on (official) visits as a junior,” Gray said. “I plan on doing my official visits in 2018 between April and June and then committing right after that. “I’ll go into my senior season and I won’t have to worry about colleges or anything like that and I can enroll early in January.” Gray has plenty of college football in his blood. His uncle is former Ohio State running back Maurice Hall who split carries with Maurice Clarett during the Buckeyes’ 2002 national championship year. Also, his father played at Tennessee State. The four-star back has been hearing promising details about Notre Dame through the coaching staff at Lausanne Collegiate School. “My coach is a big fan of Notre Dame,” Gray said. “Our offensive coordinator, he talks to me about the academics and how good of a school, outside of football, they are. South Bend is not a bad place to go to college. I look forward to seeing all that.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
