MEN'S BASKEBALL Harden joined the program in the 2006 class before transferring one year later. "This is a kid we really followed," Brey said. "We wondered at times last year if he would really ever leave the West Coast. I've always tried to be very realistic about the time we spend out west. We've invested at times, and at the end of the day they just won't leave the West Coast. … [Assistant coach] Martin Ingelsby did a good job of say- ing, 'Stay on this one because this one could pop.'" The one notable absence from the class is a top-flight rebounder or center that can help stabilize the Irish front- court in a year or two. With one scholar- ship left to give, Brey said Notre Dame will monitor current high school seniors who emerge, as well as potential trans- fer additions to the program. Although Brey is not able to com- ment on unsigned prospects, Notre Dame remains involved in the recruit- ment of a pair of five-star centers: Las Vegas Bishop Gorman's Stephen Zim- merman, Rivals.com's No. 10 player in the class, and Fort Wayne (Ind.) Home- stead's Caleb Swanigan, the No. 16 se- nior prospect nationally according to Rivals.com. The pair will wait until the spring to make a college decision, but both are considered long shots at best to end up at Notre Dame. "We're still chasing high school senior bigs, no question," Brey said. "We'll keep looking. You never know if another senior emerges. [Freshman point guard] Matt Farrell emerged in January or February [of last year] and we feel that's a good investment for us." ✦ Blue & Gold Illustrated • www.BlueGoldOnline.com 800-421-7751 Notre Dame Leather iPad Case The Notre Dame ipad case is 100% full grain, pull up cowhide.
