Amir Carlisle Transferring To ND

  • CraigR said...

    I better see 10 w's and 3 l's next season with all this talent, all be freshman and soph's. BK mishanlded the QB situation all the way. He just needs to shove all his chips to golson and let it fly cause Ree god love him can't do anything by himself. BK just have already walked up to golson and said make it happen, its your turn now. I know now BK was worried about how it would look if his 2nd season was a 6-6 hurt locker thanks to a kid (hendrix) who never started a game. Next season with all this talent and all this speed coming in its time to cut bait and hand the offense over to someone for which it is designed.

    Everrett no pressue but i expect big things outta you and so do alot of other people, you better impress or your going to be looking for the next man in, for yourself.

    Go IRISH

    dont forget 10-3!!

    Hendrix is a more complete QB. He has never gotten a start. I know some of y'all are really high on Golson, but why does that mean there won't at least be a competition between the two of them? What has Hendrix done to get bypassed? You say our offense was designed for Golson, but it was designed for kids like Hendrix too.

    Just curious. Thanks.

  • You are so right
    Every january we all get Euphoric about our so caled Monster Class.
    And what has it reaped 4-7,6-6,6-6,8-5,8-5 over the last 5 years and beyond.What we need is a bucketfull of NASTY football players in the mold of Aaron Lynch,Tuitt and Teo and hopefully Shumate(read his quotes).
    Notre dame recruiting has become the Bermuda triangle of college football.So called 4 and 5 stars go there and are never heard from again.
    And the reason Is????

  • Golson appears more explosive while Hendrix is a little slower and not as quick....Time will tell

  • Bndally, you are correct--we have 4 open slots, if we take 5 fifth year guys---
    basically, we have 62 on scholarship including 5 fifth year guys as well
    as counting Chris Badger. This leaves 23 of which, counting Carlisle,
    we have 19 commitments to this class ---- 4 left.

    But, if things get tight, we can reduce the number of fifth years--
    that is the big unknown as we move forward.

  • Looks like a good pick up. On another thread, I added this clip that I found on YouTube: http://youtu.be/9vi-xN4Jq94, but I thought I'd share it here as well. It's from one of USC's games this past season. Amir opens up the clip and there is more game footage of him at the 3:13 mark. (Note: You might want to watch the clip without the sound on since the music is pretty bad...but, of course, that's just my opinion.)

  • Hey man, irishm, thanks for posting that vid. Was great to watch Amir. Very different than I had pictured from reading the scouting reports last year.

    *Very efficient north/south style
    *Nice initial burst with more power than i imagined
    *Not as much wiggle as I though
    *DEFINITELY a RB. Not a slot guy.
    *Has a nice frame. Will get bigger. Can turn into a 20 carry a game back.

  • Amir can be a workhorse if needed. He definitely has the frame to support it. I can't wait to see what he can do at ND. He will be fighting for carries with Isaac and/or Green, Russell (if he doesn't move to the slot), Mahone, and the Cam's.

    I am not sure I ever thought I would see a day where a scholarship transfer (let alone from SC) would enroll at Notre Dame and play football. All i can say is, wow!

    Amen to that. Captures my feelings as well.

    Pleasantly surprised. Welcome to the family, Amir!

    So now we'll have Cierre Wood, Theo Riddick, Cam Roberson, George Atkinson III, Cam McDaniel, William Mahone, Kei'Varae Russell, and Amir Carlisle...

    What will Ty Isaac think of all this?

    Ty will be Irish! Book it!

  • dave83nd & boirish,

    Are you confusing senior Tyler Stockton with Stephon Tuitt? Stockton had a shoulder problem in his second season and has barely taken any snaps in three years. I'm not trying to talk down about the young man, but he's nowhere near Cwynar as far as playing time.

  • Folks--why did Amir transfer from 'SC? Did he give specific reason(s)?

  • His father, Duane, cited it was "a family decision" to the South Bend Tribune. I have not yet received a return call.

    The father worked for the 49ers as the strength and conditioning coordinator, and now he's at Purdue in a similar capacity. Amir actually was born in Illinois, so there are Midwest roots here.

  • I remember watching Amir Carlisle camp at Notre Dame. Good athlete and was one of the standouts at the event with Matt Jones and others.
