Sam Young chooses to play at Notre Dame over USC???

Found this news on the net...
thought everyone would be happy to know that our Aplastic Anemia, carcassed body, athlete of the century friend just committed to ND...good for you Sam...but I thought you were from Arizona...and about foot shorter...weight's about right I guess!!!!

St. Thomas Aquinas offensive lineman Sam Young announced Thursday that he has orally committed to play college football at Notre Dame. His announcement was broadcasted live on ESPNEWS.At 6-7, 302-pounds, Young also was highly recruited by USC and Michigan. He was the South Florida Sun-Sentinel Class 6A-5A-4A Player of the Year, Gatorade Florida Player of the Year and a Parade All-American. Overall he is the 23rd nationally ranked player in the country by Rivals.com and fourth nationally among lineman.
He joins St. Thomas teammate Dan Wenger, who had earlier committed to Notre Dame.

"Today, I fully expect Notre Dame to take its place back in the elite of the recruiting world (for which there was no earthly reason ever to leave.) Sam Young is the highest ranked recruit Notre Dame was after and this bell-weather recruit is expected to be Irish. Here's why Young is so important for Notre Dame: he's the type of player who should always go to Notre Dame, but hasn't in the past because of poor coaching and development."

"I committed to Notre Dame today because they offer me the best opportunity academically and athletically... academics were a huge factor in my decision as Notre Dame's graduation rate is excellent."

- quote from Sam Young himself


GOOD FOR YOU BUDDY!!!!
