re: This Year's Craziest Recruitment?

One other weird ND one I forgot, not as weird as Lynch/Tuitt, but still funny. Ishaq Williams was down to ND and PSU. He was going to make a visit to PSU on January 15th. ND D-coordinator Bob Diaco found out, and hopped on a plane early that morning and landed and made an in-home visit at 4:30 a.m. Not only did Williams not go to his PSU visit, but he committed to ND on the spot (and was also enrolled in classes and in my dorm two days later ). What made it even better was all the PSU fans thought it was a mistake and false rumor, because he was in their student directory (because he applied early to both schools, and sent in the form that he'd enroll early to both schools, so he'd have the option of then choosing which one. So, technically, he was listed as a PSU student, and it caused the Nittany Lion fanbase to freak out ).
