'20 AZ RB Bijan Robinson (Offer)

[NDCrusader]

A lot of work & catching up to do here. Didn't hear anything positive yesterday at the Pylon 7v7. My guess now is... Don't hold your breath.

Notre Dame losing out/having ground to make up on a running back!? Consider myself shocked.

Running back recruiting is a joke.

Here comes the "it's early" crowd...

Shame too. When BK showed up at Salpointe to offer him and check in on Lathan Ransom, the school employees took to social media to show pictures and appreciation that Our Lady's representatives were on their campus. He should have been offered a year ago. He rushed for 2000 yds as a Soph on a Top 10ish team in AZ, a state where your OC and WR coach know everyone. I yap a lot about Auto Offer's but this is the definition of one.

You know it. And with many prospects that thinking is true. But with others, you don't. He & Ransom visited Michigan 6 months ago. Had they been offered a year ago they would have made a multi stop visit... but ND must missed our Master Thread from fall of 2017.

I still like where they are with Tosh Baker but that's it unless I see overwhelming feedback from Ransom after his visit.

Right here and this doesn’t change that. He still can’t sign until Dec of 19’. And tomorrow is still Feb 11th. He hasn’t taken a single OV yet and he’s just one recruit.

I agree that its still early and there is a lot of time to make up ground. But when I look at the list of running back offers (13, per 247), I only see one or two where Notre Dame has a legit shot right now: Reggie Love and Tirek Murphy.

It is just really unfortunate that this staff can't match their o-line recruiting success with some running back success. The staff reaped the benefits last year after they had success in both the d-line and secondary in the 2016 class, and they haven't slowed down ever since. I think the o-line and running backs could be a similar, dominating duo if they can pick up the slack in recruiting running backs.
