hopefully thats how it folds out. And when it does, think the NCAA will let us play with two footballs instead of one? |

As for OSU, they should be more than fine at WR. Stoneburner and Posey is a great way to start, to the point that they'd actually be ok without any more WR IMO. I'm sure Buckeye fans would like to see a 3rd hop on board, but I don't see it as a necessity. Would that be a fair assessment? |
I know that have Goodman, but he doesn't strike me as a gamebreaker or future top pick. Same goes for anyone in last years class for ND sans Duval kamara, and that's assuming Kamara develops, because IIRC he's incredibly raw.
I think you'll see us take at least two other WR prospects, one for sure in Scott, and then likely one of Thomas/Tate/Floyd/Fuller. LordJeffBuck went through it before, so I won't.

So 4 WR total is the best guess. Thanks guys!

I think the writing was on the wall for this one...we never really heard anything towards Floyd seriously considering us and it seems we are after Fuller and Thomas really hard right now, with Scott seemingly in the fold. Plus, the Brew Crew never mentioned him as a top target...this is likely because we knew he wasn't coming here rather than talent. ND will get a good one...Floyd is the 2nd best WR in the country next to A.J. Greene imo.

Floyd has U on his short list
Cretin-Derham Hall receiver Michael Floyd said that of the seven schools he's still considering, Notre Dame and Ohio State have emerged from the pack and that he's taking a wait-and-see approach with the Gophers.

Cretin-Derham Hall receiver Michael Floyd said that of the seven schools he's still considering, Notre Dame and Ohio State have emerged from the pack and that he's taking a wait-and-see approach with the Gophers.
Floyd, one of the nation's top receivers, said recently that he narrowed his list to Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State, Florida, Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin. But it appears he's moving closer to a decision.
Notre Dame has long been rumored as Floyd's top choice, but he denied rumors that he's already given the Irish a silent verbal. He is hoping to take an official visit when Notre Dame plays host to USC on Oct. 20.
"I really like their coaches," he said. "They're real cool guys. They're real, not fake toward you. Some coaches [in recruiting] try to be something they're not."
Floyd said he also liked what he saw on his unofficial visit to Ohio State last month. He reiterated that he still is considering Minnesota but wants to see how the Gophers do in coach Tim Brewster's first season.
Floyd said he might follow the advice of his advisers and stop giving interviews on recruiting once his season starts.
"I want the focus to be on the team and us having a good season," he said.

Crabtree claims that Ohio State is the team to beat for Floyd with Notre Dame as the darkhorse.
Interesting...?
