C.J. Holmes

[Bodizephax]

C. J. Holmes a 4 star athlete 6'0" 190lb(all purpose back/Safety) out of CT has offers from the likes of Alabama, Michigan, and Notre Dame.
Word down on the barrio is that he may be the next Irish commit. Anyone else hear this?

Notre Dame is a red hot destination for top highshcool prospects.

Young recruits love Coach Kelly ! C.J. Holmes is a stud ! No wonder Alabama wants him !

on twitter he posted emojis of a gun and a finger and a face rubbing its chin. essentially..."should i pull the trigger?" I think he will be irish. will it be now or soon? maybe. plus, it sounds like we're pitching him that he will be the next Prosise w/ his versatility.

Would love to land this kid. Explosive athlete.. maybe he will bring Tarik with him!

I believe Holmes is still on campus today, and several sources say his folks love ND, and seems universal that he was a standout at the invasion and was loving everything about the day. Sounds like a commit waiting to happen, and hope we see it today.

Wants to play O...most want him on D...letting him start off on O could be a deciding factor

Commits to the Irish !!

Not a 5*

So doesn't count as a decent recruit for @cgvr

haven't seen film of this kid and so I can't say what I think of him yet. reading a short while ago that he scratched his scores at the opening today and so nobody knows what he tested at. someone elsewhere also posted that his dad was saying that he ran a 4.6 today which I hope is wrong because that is a terrible time for a guy that say people could or will play rb in south bend

Nonsense. Here is the link to the 2015/2014/2013 combine results. In 2016, only 10 RBs ran a sub 4.5. A lot of big time NFL RBs running over 4.6- Jeremy Hill (4.66), Carlos Hyde (4.66), LeVeon Bell (4.6), Montee Ball (4.66), CJ Anderson (4.6) Andre Ellington (4.61), Stefan Taylor (4.76) Theo Riddick (4.68)- dude should have never dawned that gold helmet??

A legit 4.6 is very good for a hs kid.
