Why doesn't he have any ND predictions listed on his industry profiles if Loy and Singer both said they expect the flip?

What's the consensus at this point? Per this post, he has sped up his decision to be made in the next week? Does that sound like a positive for ND? 2025 WR Jalen Cooper Enjoys Notre Dame OV, Final Decision Soon

I think that was his timeline before the visit as well. It was said he will make his decision a week after the visit. I think ND is in a good spot here. I think his mind was already made up but just wanted to be on campus for a game to make sure his decision was the right one. This one seems over.

Same crap from the same few posters.

Cooper was going to be a tough flip. Local boy, family desire for him to be close to home, and committed to a school that is on the up.

But, yeah, the staff sucks at their jobs.

Well they definitely suck at identifying recruiting targets

Yeah, it's not true when referring to the whole staff. Mickens is a very good recruiter/evaluator. Deland has proven to be a good recruiter even though he lazily mailed it in with the 25 class. Denbrock has a good track record as an evaluator and recruiter. Really the only poor/meh recruiters on staff are Mike Brown and Al Washington.

Hard to sell this offense to receivers

To be fair, Chansi had success in selling the offenses under Tommy Boy and Porker. His coaching was another issue, but he had no problem landing blue-chip WR's. Us message board posters can argue about whether or not Mike Brown is a bad recruiter, but what's very telling is the statements that the ISD folks have repeatedly made about him. And I'm not just talking about Mike Frank, who a lot of people on here view as a debbie-downer even though he is right more often than not. Jamie and Greg have been ringing the alarm bells for several months saying that Brown is not a good recruiter. Pretty much no WR's talk about him and he's gotten very, very few blue-chip recruits in both the 25 and 26 classes to visit campus since he was hired. Jamie and Greg talk to Matt and Christian, who talk to recruits. They're relaying information directly from recruits. Mike Frank went into great detail about how Brown (and Freeman) completely botched the WR board for the 2025 class.

This staff does suck at recruiting…….3 (probably 2) WRs committed for 2025 and only a couple months until signing day. It’s time to throw in the towel as I’m sure the staff will be doing the same. There is no hope.
