I'm not getting my hopes up, either. Freeman said they'd be all about HS recruiting but then the beat said that the staff decided to not go all-in on paying recruits. They still need to pick a lane - either go all-in on paying elite HS recruits or go all-in and drop bags on the elite portal players. I'll believe it when I see it.I assume we end up with more Northwestern,Duke, BC players. Let's not hype ourselves up too much
People say that players won't go here even if ND offers the biggest bag, but I don't buy that. A&M, Miami, and Oklahoma haven't done much the last few seasons, yet they've proven that the lack of on-field success in terms of record or at certain positions doesn't matter if you give the biggest bag to elite recruits and portal players. Do they get every one they want even when they drop the biggest bag? No, but they've gotten more players than if they did nothing. The same thing would happen with ND if they did that.
