Man I hope this kid picks the Bucks this time and not to steal time from Mr. Wilson's topic but didn't ND say this with Willingham also

o don’t fret this recruiting season or where the Irish end up being ranked, Irish fans. The Irish already landed their top recruit in Weis.

Once Weis does his magic on the Notre Dame sidelines; I don’t think you’ll have much to worry about in recruiting anymore.

I am not sure if anyone really knows their relationship or if they even have one. I believe Wilson transferred in after Cotton/James but before Pittman - I would at least hope that he is in his ear.

Weis' strength in numbers (Just more on the infamous 7 coaches visit) - Chicago Tribune

Weis' strength in numbers
By Teddy Greenstein
Tribune college football reporter

January 26, 2005
When Charlie Weis offered to send seven assistant coaches to visit recruit David Nelson in Texas, it was not his first foray into that novel form of group therapy. Weis sent seven assistants to Akron on Jan. 16 to visit Lawrence Wilson, whom ESPN.com recruiting analyst Tom Lemming ranks 16th nationally among defensive ends.

Wilson, who pulled his commitment from Notre Dame after the Tyrone Willingham firing, was impressed with the two-hour visit from the Irish Seven—Rick Minter, Michael Haywood, Jappy Oliver, Rob Ianello, John Latina, Brian Polian and Bill Lewis.
"It did help," Wilson's mother, Sarah, told the South Bend Tribune. "He was very surprised."

But Wilson, who reportedly carries a 3.4 grade-point average at St. Vincent-St. Mary, the school that produced LeBron James, has not made a final decision. Ohio State, which sent four coaches to Wilson's home the day after the Notre Dame visit, is considered the slight favorite.

And don't look now, but Florida with coach Urban Meyer is also in the picture.

Lawrence was visited by Urban Meyer and a contingent of ND assistant coaches on wednesday. He was impressed by the Notre Dame pitch and had a good talk about the academics and student life of Notre Dame. Lawrence is extremely tired of the recruiting process. Ohio State will have the final visit with Wilson on friday but the coaches visiting were not mentioned. His father said Lawrence should have an announcement by sunday and that ESPN may carry the announcement.

ESPN may televise the announcement? Huh? No offense to LW, as I believe he will be a monster in college, but he's not on anyone's top 100 list. The only reason I can think of to have his announcement on ESPN is because he is going to choose ND. We all know Lemming is an ND hawk, and having a player on tv pick ND over tOSU on national tv would be major for Lemming.
