ND Junior Recruiting Changing for the Better

Well, that didn't take long! ND has 4 recruits already committed for 2008. All except one within 100 miles of the university. And the one is Golic's son from Connecticut. That is saying something. It shows that there is a change in strategy for Charlie with this class. Instead of recruiting nationally, he is focused on protecting his backyard. I think this is a GREAT idea.

It's hard to get an 18 year old from somewhere like Florida (or any other warm weather state) to leave for South Bend. And I don't blame the kids. They are 18 years old and thinking with their other head. But, to go after kids that are already from cold weather regions, just makes sense. And if you can steal a speedster or two from Florida or Texas or California at the key positions, like you know ND can, all the better I say.
