Who's Next? - 2026 Edition

[Rocketman84]

Forget running. Who needs it? Give me 2019 Burrow.

402/527 76.3% 5,671 yards 60 TDs 6 INTs 202 rating

Bolded stats he lead all of the NCAA. One of the single greatest seasons of all time.

Well without two Hall of Fame WR coming along with him those numbers are a moot point. Without them he doesn't even sniff those numbers.

 

[Rocketman84]

When is the new, combined Rivals300 supposed to debut?

Guessing takes a few days to do the calculations over for everyone including the new bumps as well. Weekend is a good guess

 

[GrangerIrish24]

So who do we got for today?

I’m announcing at 5pm est. You can never have enough middle aged, slow white guys.

Golden and Reddish are the next two

Then take a deep breath

Technically Reddish and Golden. But let’s not get caught in the weeds. Class is stacked and still stacking.

That's what makes Cam's 2013 season so spectacular, he did it with literally nobody around him. Lamar Jackson had a similarly weak supporting cast, but also had a considerably easier schedule than Cam

When does Dia flip? Is that not until December?

They had a 5* stud in the backfield and his backup was a 4* speedster and Darvin Adams was 2x All SEC at WR, coupled with a D that allowed 20ppg.

This ended weeks ago and we have 5 WR commits

I'm well aware of that😂😂, it was over when he cancelled his OV on the 17th. Think he wants a powerhouse Track program aside from Football.

 

[NDIrish88]

Aside from Reddish and Golden, who else are they working on?

 

[IRISHbluehen]

Aside from Reddish and Golden, who else are they working on?

That'll be the end if no one jumps ship. Will probably continue to recruit Vallejo in case he has a change of heart.

and Dia Bell.

and Dia Bell.

Yeah. Keep recruiting the guys you have, for sure.

 

[NDpendent]

Aside from Reddish and Golden, who else are they working on?

The board will be likely finished until the season begins and they will target seniors who breakout during their season

 

[Irish du Nord]

Not to mention some likely risers in the lower half of the class (Fryzel, Chas Smith, McKeogh, Ewetade).

Following up on this, rising in the new Rivals rankings: (article here: Revamped rankings: Majority of Notre Dame football's 2026 commits earn spots in updated Rivals300)
Fryzel: 296 overall, rises 5 in the TE rankings
Chaston Smith: 135 overall, up from 293 in the previous rankings
McKeogh: 13 overall, was 181
Ewetade: 20 overall, was 28

Ball’s in your court 247

 

[NDFAN2008]

How is Joey O'brien not a 5 star lol wow impressive Mckeogh is 13th

 

[Ricochet]

How is Joey O'brien not a 5 star lol wow impressive Mckeogh is 13th

I predicted that both would end up 5 stars but it was McKeogh that would get there later by jumping up in fairly big chunks in every update. OL recruiting isn't sexy but O'Brien game has flash as does the position and you can get more clicks with him moving up in future rankings.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Having a class all but wrapped up in August is about as good as it gets. Recruit your verbals, stay in touch with prospects, focus on actual football.

It's a beautiful thing as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Sea Turtle]

I wonder if they will go for a couple of big flips this fall and winter.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Is all well with Bell?

 

[Sea Turtle]

Is all well with Bell?

I hope so.

 

[DONTH8]

I hope so.

Sea Turtle commenting on a QB recruit?

 

[NDFAN2008]

I think freeman needs to be honest with Grubbs look you are more than welcome to be in this class and come here and compete but we are gonna go after another QB

 

[NDFAN2008]

QB, DT, maybe another LB?
