Kinda wild we’re landing this caliber of WR this quickly without a QB signed up officially, with a WR coach who’s barely in the door and with Parker at OC.

Do we need 3? Get the kid from Washington State and run it with the guys we already have. Between Faison, Greathouse, Thomas, Colzie, and the freshman we should have enough to build a playoff level receiver room.
I agree but I can understand being careful since ND's 2023 room was (figuratively) crippled by injuries.

Has anyone reviewed Riley Leonard's IG follows? Any new transfer portal guys? Curious if we make a run at the Purdue or Vandy WRs?

Did you log into the site last week at all?

I say if all 3 want to come and they're willing to take them all, get yer ya yas out and get them in.

People need to remember that the really good teams rotate 5-6 WR's per game. OSU usually plays 5 WR's and the 2017 Bama team that won the title regularly played 6 WR's.

I contend that one of his top 5 followers is JD Bertrand. We need him back, not Kiser IMO.

Not my people.

Flores, James, Tobias out. These three dudes in. Plus Thomas, Greathouse, Faison, Colzie, KK and the three incoming frosh.

That's a very strong room for the new coach to walk into.

Greg from ISD said today that they would take all 3 of Mitchell, Kelly, and Collins if they all wanted to come.

Just incredible what a little patience will get you. But maybe some posters really do like the rollercoaster thrill of losing their minds and threatening to burn everything down before rebounding, overjoyed by the positive developments in the program.

Talk about iron sharpening iron. I think the CB-WR battles will get a tad more competitive this spring/summer. I really hope ND can lock up 2 more WRs. We desperately need them just for competition/reps.

IMO you take all the guys that want to come. We've already had a good amount of transfers with more impending after the bowl game according to the beat guys. We haven't started spring, which would lead me to believe there will be more transfers post spring. Probably a few medicals or injuries(knocks on wood) between now and the start of the 2024 season. Get as much talent/depth as you can!

Buys the young guys more time, too. Suddenly all of the "Cam Williams is going to start at TAMU and be ND's best receiver" people can dial it back a bit. Imagine getting three veteran dudes like this with Leonard to join Colizie, Thomas, Faison and Greathouse. KK and the three incoming freshmen get more time to adapt to being college men. Minchey and Carr can develop, duke it out for who steps in next.

Staff buys time, players get themselves time to develop if they're not in a rush to transfer out, those who don't want to wait leave. Lather, rinse, repeat.

It's going to take some getting used to but this is the new process.

Given the tire fire that was the wr room this year, give me ALL the portal receivers.

Can't hamstring this offense by relying on true freshman and injury prone upperclassmen. Objectively, it was an absurd situation last season.

This is the process and Notre Dame has positioned itself to be a strong player. It's even more imperative that ND capitalize on these investments to convince the donors this is a fruitful venture. We really need a strong season that can give Marcus even more firepower on the recruiting trail.

But love the recent surge ND is making in this domain.
