'25 CA LB Madden Faraimo (Notre Dame Signee)

[IAIrish]

Im optimistic we get both, but Faraimo for me is #1...keep the Polynesian Pipeline going...Like to see if they can get Talanoa Ili for 2026...

Same. All the Poly kids. I'd be fine with that same strategy at DT.

Can you imagine a linebacking corps of KVA, Faraimo and NOB in a couple years? Holy hell.

reports for a while have been that KVA and Faraimo are good friends so that should help if he sees KVA making big plays next weekend

KVA will be starting next season and with Faraimo seeing what KVA has done this season helps. I like ND's chances in landing both Faraimo & NOB and adding those 2 to the group could give ND the best LB position in the country.

I think these 2 are the 2 biggest recruits on campus next weekend and what they can sell them to be a tandem LB duo.

I think you could move Jaiden Ausberry to NB next year

No

 

[NDFAN2008]

No

It was brought up somewhere else

Technically they would be staying in the base defense if that was the case.

I don’t buy it their god awful

Its 2024, team performance isn’t as big as it used to be.

 

[T-Boone]

I doubt he would play much on 25 for ND. Bowen, Ausberry, Sneed, KVA will dominate.

 

[rtrn2glory]

He's going to play if he's ready... They proved that this year. LB rotation has been outstanding. Depth at that position has been a huge key to the success of the defense

 

[IrishFanForever23]

Florida just flipped a LB commit from SC.

 

[brewdog_14527]

I would say, sort of similar to NOB, if you can watch ND defense and the way Golden deploys his LB's and still say, no, I want to go to that other place, peace out and enjoy.

Sneed won't be here next year.. this is not my opinion fwiw

Not surprised at all

Yep.

 

[South Bend Gangster]

so this “big” FSU weekend produced the James flip and that’s it? That’s terrible. How can you not capitalize with the on field success? This class is a massive disappointment.

 

[Giddyup]

We might be over our salary cap for ‘25. I like the class we’ve got so far. Plus that Kia kid looked great at LB during the spring game but got injured. Our numbers there should be fine.

It’s about the complete failure to finish this class and the completely dumb fuckin process used by some of these coaches. This isn’t good enough.

And how are they over a salary cap? They have maybe 5 players worth spending $ on.

 

[pumpdog20]

The 23 and 24 classes are likely the reason for the miss on 25. Lots of young studs that would be tough to supplant, and who wants to do the whole "choose hard" bit when you're riding pine as an elite recruit.

Take who wants to come and be great in the 25 class, and reload with 26.

Bullshit, that’s a cope. Kia & Sacca can go, just get Faraimo.

@ab2cmiller fuck yourself. Keep thinking 3* can win a title. Fuck grit, get talent.

Not yet. I have nothing going on this morning and this is entertaining.

Fuck 3*

How many of our top LB targets can we say, "peace out and enjoy" to before it becomes a problem tho? The justification for being OK with losing out on NOB was that we effectively had Faraimo in the fold. Where we gonna move the goalposts if we don't land him?
