'08 IL LB Brett Nagel (Northwestern Verbal) - Page 8 - Notre Dame Football Discussion

I wish they would offer him and some others, but they are the coaches so let's just see what happens.

I understand that Brett Nagel is bigger and even a better athlete that Aaron. One real large problem, he has about 30 offers but none from Notre Dame. It doesn't appear that Weis is interested in him. About six line backers now have offers but nothing has been given to Brett as yet. I wonder why.

We should just write off the obvious, Shayne Hale is not coming here, so give a scholie to Nagel or Major whats the problem?

What about Arthur Brown, do you think he's coming to South Bend, so why not offer both Nagel & Major. Hold on, wait a minute what about Zordich, Spooner, Witherspoon, LeGrand, Meyers, Clancy and about 5 other LB’s that would love to have an ND offer, but are just a cut below the group that CW has offered. Oh, and what happens if you offer all of these guys and Hale, Brown & Sweat do end up coming to ND, and you have 10 linebackers in a class. Do you then do what the Cockwad does, and gently nudge some of them to another school? Not at Notre Dame.

Listen, I think it would be great if Brett Nagle were to get an offer, and he would probably accept it on the spot, but the coaching staff has commitments to the 7 guys they already offered, and that commitment does not end until these guys verbal to someone else, or NSD, whichever comes first. It is Brett Nagel’s choice to decide early, his current scholarship offers will remain in place all the way to NSD, so he could conceivably wait until then to see if an ND spot opens up. You can’t blame him for not waiting, and you can’t blame the coaching staff for not offering until they are sure they have an available spot. I think the coaching staff probably knows what they are doing.

He was just born in the wrong year. Last year there were a ton of really talented QB to offer, it just so happens that this year the same is true for LBs, and WRs.

IUB is right. The fact that we haven't offered him reflects the fact that the coaching staff is confident that we're going to end up landing guys who are even better than he is. Let's just hope that this time we're right about that ...

It is also only March, there is a lot of time left until the next signing day.
