Hopefully Tommy didn’t stare at his phone all night

Given the amount and severity of injuries this season, do you think this changes the number of recruits that is taken in 2022?

 

[Dale]

Anyone find it weird how many of our commits are taking unofficials for games? I get they missed out last year and most are local but seems at least somewhat odd, it’s not like the committed elsewhere Chicago kids are hitting up ND a ton.

At last read, Moore, Sneed, Chan, Walker, Williams, and JR have all caught games at other schools

 

[Rockin’Irish]

Surely doesn’t seem the norm for years past but maybe it’s because social media has expanded even further so it’s more difficult for the players to fly under the radar.

Inching closer to 92 average class rank. Earlier in the thread talked about some of these 3 stars becoming 4. Still shocked Devin Moore isn’t higher but Raridon makes it one of that group to make the jump

 

[Luckylucci]

Drew Allar is now the #1 QB in the country and #12 overall player. I hope he's really bad or it's going to be hard to get over this one.

Current class has a BCR of 76%. The roster is 55% currently for 2021.

what's a BCR?

 

[Dale]

what's a BCR?

Blue Chip Ratio. Just 4 stars compared to 3 stars. Guy on 247 releases an article with everyone over 50% each year since I believe in the playoff era or maybe longer the national champion as always had over 50%

Pain.

It was so obvious from his Junior film that he possesses rare arm talent. Even a bunch of schmucks like us could recognize his 3 star rating was ridiculous.

Also shocked Amorion isn't higher with his offer list and measurables

I think this update was just for the top 247. They do different updates at different times. Walker and Moore obviously didn't get bumped to the top 247, but they may still be in line for smaller bumps. Moore should be top 247, easily, but maybe the lack of highlights is hurting him? He's gotta let someone get open lol.

 

[irishff1014]

On the new 247 update by my count we now have 12 players in the top 200. 6 on defense and 6 on offense. If we land Schrauth that would put us at 13 in the top 200. That's has to be on of the best classes BK has had. That's how you bridge the gap but you have to do this every year not this year and again in 5 years.

It'll be hard to get over imo

 

[BrownerandFry]

Allar water bridge. More interesting areSchrauth,Wagner,tabaracci Walker kanu and lucas

 

[Dale]

Anyone know if Rivals or ESPN also updated?

Williams for example went from:

91 on 10/19 to 96 on 10/20 (247 update) to 76 today in Composite

Williams still at 144 right behind Angeli on ESPN.com.

Well, if the start is any indication, '23 is looking even better.

Anybody expected to pop after the weekend visits?

 

[FWIrish4]

Was an absolutely perfect October day for football and a great atmosphere last night at the game. I know recruits don’t make their decisions off of that, but I bet that will be echoed by almost all of them in their post-visit interviews.

 

[NDPhilly]

Light show at end of the 3rd looked sweet. Couldn't have imagined that at ND 10 years ago.

I wish they would've went dark and hit the crowd with some music with deep base, didn't love the Rihanna song although I get why they used it. Hopefully they experiment to find the perfect combo. Really thought it was an awesome move

If you’re looking for recruiting updates from the weekend, this ISD article will get ya done. It’s premium but a lot of content in here.

[IrishRazor82]

What do you make of the dead silence on Billy S and Walker Howard? Does anyone know if they stayed through Monday morning? Is silence reason for optimism, or just a coincidence?

I want Walker more than the Iowian Safety. An elite QB is the next step even though our safety position looks scary post-Hamilton.
