Greg Smith talking recruiting
---Likes Lynom's length and NU getting back into FL again. At 6'3" and 170lbs he has the room to grow in the S&C Program. In addition not afraid to stick his nose in and make a tackle. True CB prospect despite his height of 6'3". Coach Fisher wants long guys who are physical and not afraid to put their hands on receivers. He feels a must in the B1G.
---Alex Conn plays OT now but a good chance he moves to OG. Right now he is 6'5" and 280 lbs and has really good feet. Greg feels he has a really high upside. In addition, he is a no nonse hard nosed kid. With a mean streak who fits what Coach Austion is looking for.
---Like a lot of folks was surprised Reed picked UW. Said as late as Sunday Night word he got was it looked good for NU. The switch came at the last minute. His dad did not come on his OV only mom. The host teased that it sounded like Dad had been paid by UW and thus the switch. Greg was very uncomfortable with that line of questioning.
---He changed his prediction on Xavier Watts and now has him Notre Dame bound. However, the key to him is we do not know why he biblically or privately did not commit to them while in South Bend on his OV. Was that because NU is in the back of his mind and he is having a hard time turning down the Huskers. Key is if this drags out its good for NU.
---Expects Gunnerson, Hutmacher and Simon to make decisions this summer. Exepects 8-10 commits my opening weekend.
