OH CB/ATH Kyle McCarthy (Notre Dame signee)

1) Where is "the hopper?"

2) the incredible lineup of recruits that could sign in the next month speaks volumes of what Kyle must have going for him. We are actually looking at as many if not more 4-stars than 3-stars (not that stars are the end all of potential). I trust Tressel and co. and their ability to find diamonds in the rough. And if we could land Carlos along with him, it wouldn't even matter if he turned out to be a dud (which I doubt he will)

If he is simply as great of a person as the locals say he is, he might bring intangibles to teh table like the ones found in Thomas matthews.

Mooney's McCarthy, With OSU Offer, Is Set To Visit
By Gary Housteau
Date: Jan 6, 2005

Although Ohio State was a bit late coming to the table for McCarthy's services, they were one of the first of the bigger programs to extend to him a scholarship offer, and that means a lot to Mooney's outstanding two-way performer. Will this lifelong Notre Dame fan switch his allegiance to Jim Tressel and become a Buckeye or wait around to see if the Irish will step forward as well?

I like this part --
Wherever he ends up on the collegiate level, McCarthy is likely to play defense and he’s fine with that. Ohio State has told him that they’re looking at him as a corner.
I loved playing quarterback, always being involved in the offense, but I know that my future is on defense at these bigger schools and I look forward to that, definitely,” he said. “I’m excited about it and I’ve played there through high school. I’ve had experience at safety and at corner. So wherever I end up, probably on the defensive side of the ball, I’m going to be excited about it and just work as hard as I can to get playing time.”
Sounds like Kyle has a truly square head on his shoulders - zero pretensions, his expectations are thoroughly realistic...

More I hear about / from him the more I like the idea of him wearing S & G.
