Recruit like a champion: Irish secure best of the class
By Rick Warner The Associated Press
The Fighting Irish, coming off their worst season since 1986, landed the top recruiting class in the country Wednesday.
Notre Dame was the best and Georgia was the luckiest on national signing day in college football.
"Notre Dame was the clear winner," said Allen Wallace, publisher of Super-Pren magazine. "They got almost everybody they wanted."
Georgia signed the Luckie triplets from Clarkston, Ga. Dustin and Mike are 6-foot-2, 225-pound linebackers, and Miles is a 6-2, 270-pound lineman.
"We probably signed the first group of triplets that I'm aware of anywhere," coach Ray Goff said. "I'm sure it may have happened before somewhere, but never that I heard of."
Notre Dame had a lot of holes to fill following a 6-5-1 season, but the Irish managed to fill them with an incoming freshmen class that includes 19 Super-Prep All-Americans.
"They got the best player in Texas, the best linebacker in California, the best quarterback in Mississippi, the best runner in Florida and the best fullback in Louisiana." Wallace said.
Offensive standouts on Notre Dame's list include linemen Mike Rosenthal of Mishawaka, Ind., and Tim Ridder of Omaha, Neb; running backs Jamie Spencer of Monroe, La., and Autry Denson of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.; receiver Randy Moss of Belle, W.Va; quarterback Jarious Jackson of Tupelo, Miss.; and kicker Kevin Kooka of Hollywood Hills, Fla.
The Irish also signed a strong defensive group, including linemen Antwon Jones of Piqua, Ohio, and Jerry Wires of Jenke, Okla.; linebackers Jimmy Friday of Sugarland, Texas, and Kory Minor of La Puente, Calif.; and defensivebacks Benyu Gullbeaux of Opelousas, La., and Mary Strawray of Cincinnati.
"I don't think I've ever had a year where we have probably answered as many question marks on paper as did this week," coach Lou Holtz said.
Holtz said Notre Dame's problems last season helped attract players who knew they would have a chance to play immediately.
"I don't want that advantage next year," he said. "I don't want to go through another year like we did last year."
Wallace ranked Florida State as the No. 2 recruiting class, followed by Penn State, Texas A&M, Florida, Michigan, Auburn, Alabama, Colorado, Southern California, Nebraska, Illinois, Wisconsin and North Carolina.
Florida State's best-known recruit was Dan Kendra, the nation's top-rated quarterback from Bettlehem, Pa. Kendra originally said he was going to Penn State but changed his mind and decided to play for Bobby Bowden, who coached Kendra's father at West Virginia.
"This guy can play." Bowden said.
The Seminoles also landed Florida's No. 1 wide receiver, Peter Warrick of Bradenton, and home-state running backs Jeremi Rudolph of Apopka, Fla., and Khalid Abdullah of Davie, Fla.
Penn State, which went undefeated last season, had a banner recruiting yean despite the loss of Kendra.
The Nittany Lions signed three of the nation's best running backs — Aaron Harris of Downingtown, Pa., Cordell Mitchell of Syracuse, N.Y., and Chafie Fields of Philadelphia. They also got SuperPrep's top-rated wide receiver, Corey Jones of Lancaster, Pa., and tight end, Cuncho Brown of Winston-Salem, N.C.
On defense, Penn State signed All-Americans Brandon Short of McKeesport, Pa., David Fleischauer of Clemmons, N.C., Anthony Cleary of Chambersburg, Pa., and Askari Adams of Mechanicsburg, Pa.
