I know a lot are over the drama surrounding this recruitment, but keeping Knight in the class is still in the best interest of Notre Dame. Knight seeing Auburn for a 3rd time without decommitting from Notre Dame and committing to Auburn - this time after an official visit - is potentially big here.
There have been reports of Knight coming to Notre Dame for the Oct 12 Stanford game. If he makes that trip, after all the trips to Auburn, while still publicly committed to Notre Dame, the Irish might be able to hang on here.
Auburn continuing to lose every time Knight is on campus can't be helping the Tigers chances either - especially with rumors already swirling around Hugh Freeze.
