he said that both trips went well, it was what he saw from a distance that really made the difference down the stretch. "Notre Dame provides so much, but what really turned me was the show," Studstill said in reference to the Show- time series 'A Season With Notre Dame Football' that gave viewers a week- to-week behind the scenes look at the Irish. "That gave me the insight of the everyday life of players. So that was great and very positive for me." What also helped the case for Notre Dame was Studstill's former high school teammate Te'von Coney, a fresh- man linebacker who inked with the Irish last recruiting cycle. "Over the summer, when I wasn't really turning to anyone, he was both- ering me every day about it," Studstill said of Coney's recruiting efforts. "'The coaches really want you. Come, Bro.' That's my boy. He let me make my own decision, though." Studstill signed an early financial aid agreement with the Irish a few days after making his commitment and will enroll early in January. While he knows that there will be an adjustment period going from high school to college, he thinks that he'll be able to challenge others for repetitions during spring camp. "I want to get there and try to beat out the competition," he said. Studstill, who is ranked by Rivals as the No. 45 athlete in the country and the No. 63 prospect in Florida, lined up at safety, cornerback, wide receiver and wildcat quarterback his senior year at Palm Beach Gardens. He's ranked by the Sun Sentinel as the No. 4 prospect in Palm Beach County. ✦ Authentic Notre Dame Helmets by Authentic "Speed" Full-Size Display Helmets Riddell's ND "Speed" helmet features a large-size shell, special-order facemask worn by most of the star players who choose to wear the Speed, internal padding reflective of the "Speed Classic" design, and 4-pt. chinstrap.
