'20 NE WR Xavier Watts (Notre Dame Man)

[Rocketman84]

Is he the best safety at ND ever?

Duerson, Terrell, Burris, Hamilton, Zibby and Ndukwe say hello! Sapp showed his 5* potential his last year and a half on campus as well.

The one thing Del got right in recruiting. Thanks, coach!

Maybe it is because Kyle Hamilton was out the 2nd half of his junior year but Watts as been unreal to watch & way more fun. 1st rd draft pick, easy.

Just double-checked that he had “(Notre Dame Man)” after his name. Brilliant performance. ☘️

Any chance he get the best defender award again? I think he has been better than he was last season.

The best defensive player in the country is not a finalist.

Proving how fucking dumb awards committees can be.

Might I suggest an additional title to "Notre Dame Man?"

"Owner of the USC Trojans"

Did anyone find video of his pick 6 from the vantage point of the usc sideline? Would love to see it

JJB really caused that fumble.





JJB's right hand wearing a white glove, caused this fumble.

Great event for Watts to showcase his abilities.

That seals it for me. The GOAT ND safety.

Did anyone else catch that last picture in the reel of CBS using Deon Colzie's face above Watt's name

 

[Giddyup]

Yeah I saw that. Colzie snuck that beautiful face in. Happened a couple times during the game

I'm OK passing here unless we strike out and put the press on late in the year. But staff seems to like him.

Example 1 billion from this choad about why it’s best to keep your mouth shut and let people think you’re a fool than open it and confirm you are.

I laughed at his post way back in 2019, how time flies.

I looked up the ND record for most career interceptions and he’s 5 or 6 behind so that’s not happening but I bet he has the most as a ratio of games started.

Not so fast my friend. We still have 4 games to play!

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

He's quickly moving towards consensus All-American as well. I've seen a lot of Instagram activity that he's been selected 1st team by many different outlets so far.

I probably know the least about the NFL on this site - so what is the deal? is safety just not a highly sort after spot and that’s why he isn’t a 1st round draft pick type or is it a measurables thing. I’ve been confused for months about this. His production is too good to not otherwise be a first rounder.

I don't think safety is generally a highly drafted position unless physical traits are off the charts but maybe I'm wrong.
