2026 Transfer Portal - General

[NDFAN2008]

I think a name to watch for ND would be Nick Marsh from Michigan St...

Late to the party he has been mentioned numerous times not sure if it will happen but with Carr at QB I have a feeling there is gonna be more than a few big time guys to reach out

 

[Ricochet]

Probally headed to Oregon if Dante leaves

The first 2 schools that came to mind were Oregon and IU.

I remember someone saying that Oregon reached out to him last year when they were a bit unsure of Dante. IU might be interested in Lewis if Sanders retires

They have a 5 star freshman on campus that is all world. He was with SMU for awhile so he could get NIL’d but he’s their Carr.

Curious if he will want to wait another year if Simpson returns

Miami. Cristobal is addicted to getting QB's from the portal.

I’d say this is one to monitor.

Should be no issues with admissions😉

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Do we need a receiver? You'd think Cam and Gilbert would be ready by their third years.

Greathouse, Faison, Cam, Gilbert, KK, and Burress is a solid core. Not to mention the stud freshmen coming in.

We might’ve been interested a few years ago, but I think we need to aim higher. I will admit I haven’t seen any of his film so I’m judging a book by its cover

If a number 1 guy wants to come, you absolutely take him. Especially if Greathouse decides to leave.

Think we will also be looking for a capable back up QB from a small school once MInchey moves on.

What gives me pause is that dude from FIU who transferred here…whose name I can’t even remember…he didn’t end up being able to really show out at this level. And I know, Riley might have hampered that a bit…but Beaux Collins, who did have a P4 pedigree, did perform fairly well for us.

I hope they spend every single NIL dollar they have on WR and DT.

The Penn guy would be a nice replacement for Pauling I think there’s gonna be bigger names reaching out to come here especially with Carr at QB.

 

[NDMatt91]

I hope they spend every single NIL dollar they have on WR and DT.

The issue with DT is that, as of the moment, the potential grad transfer pool appears to be really, really bad. The Wake Forest DT who is getting mid-late 2nd round rankings is really the only one that stands out at the moment.

Miami. Cristobal is addicted to getting QB's from the portal.

He's also addicted to not winning the ACC.

 

[irishandy]

I'd only go after a Malachi Fields type of receiver in the portal. I think Cam Williams & Micah Gilbert could have big seasons next year.

With Greathouse & Faison coming back, this year's freshman class & the 26 WR class I think ND is set at WR.

You bring up a very good point here, and while what you're saying otherwise is also a good point and fair, I can't help but wonder what kind of numbers some of these guys can put up in an offense closer to the 2025 version of it.

 

[Irish5Saint]

This could be the backup QB for next year

 

[Irish5Saint]

also *may* need an OT if Wagner isn’t back like what some of the II podcasters speculated last week comes to fruition

 

[Irish5Saint]

Fuck it I’ll just post every Ivy leaguer who’s portaling

a number 1 in the Ivy League guy? not sure about that.

 

[DillonHall]

We should be focused on Power 4 transfers

 

[arrowryan]

The starting OT would be Will Black

This or Augustine who I heard the staff is high on. We also have a 5 star OT coming in as a freshman.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Transfer in to sit behind Carr? Not sure I see it.

 

[IRISHbluehen]

a number 1 in the Ivy League guy? not sure about that.

Agreed, I meant more in general, not this guy in particular.

 

[DCK_1981]

With how we have recruited the Oline if we have to take a portal transfer and it’s not a too good not to take kind of player than Rudolph should be losing his job.
