Vanderdoes - keep hope alive!

  • Just read on ND site where they feel they have lost him because of a press release issued that said he'd already signed. I hear he's pissed and now considering other schools once again! C'mon EDDIE!

    Vanderdoes denies being committed to Notre Dame

    Gabriel Baumgaertner: Heralded prospect Eddie Vanderdoes wants you to know that he has not signed any papers. Arguably the top remaining uncommitted prospect in the class of 2013, Vanderdoes will announce at 8 p.m. between UCLA, Alabama, Notre Dame, USC and Washington. The problem? Notre Dame's athletic department submitted a press release with Vanderdoes' name on its list of signed players this morning. The Irish quickly claimed they made a mistake, but many assumed the defensive tackle's recruitment was over several hours before he was due to announce.

    So Vanderdoes took to Twitter to set the record straight.

    "I'll put my life on it that I have NOT signed one paper yet," he tweeted, followed by "Apparently I am silently committed everywhere." He concluded with "Got these grown men trying to mess up what I've been dreaming of since I was little. Stop it with these sources an (sic) wait 'til 5."

    The Placer, Calif., native has had an adventurous recruitment since he decommitted from USC in December. Vanderdoes took official visits to USC, Alabama and Notre Dame within the last month. He took his official visit to UCLA in November.

    Most pundits expect Vanderdoes to sign with either Notre Dame or UCLA.

    It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference. -Coach Bear Bryant

    "The Lord just wasn't with us, Coach." "The Lord," grumbled Bryant, "expects you to block and tackle." Rick Bragg, August 8, 2012

    The denial is too strong. Definitely headed to ND, imo.

    I want the kid, but that would be a stupid reason to make a decision that will affect the next 4 years of your life.

    Agree. He's just upset that someone stole his thunder.

    They are just doing their best to give him the spotlight back. He signs with ND. Just makes more sense.

  • Still holding out hope.

  • he will sign with UCLA. his commitment was at 5pm for a reason.....he wanted to see how the many 50/50 UCLA prospects fell on the table. UCLA got most of those guys to Vanderdoes' pleasure, so I think he commits to UCLA

  • Hope he rolls with the Tide, but if not good luck to him. Seems like a great kid.
