2026 ND Portal Targets

[NDPhilly]

Whiffing on everyone at the top of the board but falling into Keeley would be an absolute hilarious Portal Cycle

 

[Bluto]

If Keeley signs and lives up to his potential him and Traore would be the best ND d end combo since Kareem and Okwara. Would make sense to move Young inside. Would be one hell of a pass rush with any combo of the first three moved inside and Sneed and the other defender coming off the edge.

If this is true, it looks like OSU trying to get Brewu on campus

 

[NDWarrior]

I don't know who this guy is, but he says ND is in the mix... with 7 other teams!

He’s another Bruce Straughan type, but has really cooled down on trying to be an insider. He’s just a young, eager kid who is a big ND fan.

His stuff comes from On3. Not so coincidentally, this comes 1 hour from an update by Kyle Kelly.

Yeah he went to high school right outside Columbus.

As a defensive tackle, you have to imagine playing on the line with Young, Traore, and (Keeley)...in front of the most experienced LB core in the country, with the Best secondary in football locking up receivers behind you...you would have ample opportunity to make plays and get to the QB. Oh, and you play for one of the best coaches at your position.

“That sounds like an incredible opportunity, but how much did you say the check was for?”

Basically...

Surely someone on the ND staff can send Kayden McDonald a DM asking why Ohio State hates him now....

Part of the problem is our expectation that we have any idea what the coaches are thinking or what they should do. For all we know, Keeley is top of their board and the communication had been happening. Im not saying I believe that to be the case, but just making the point that we all literally know shit about what the plan or lack of plan was, hierarchy of players, communication going on, etc.

ND’s portal process does not need to look like Texas Tech’s and neither does the result if we keep recruiting and retaining the talent we want to retain at the rate we are.

 

[Rocketman84]

When did they move Pittsburgh to the east coast?

Yes, but he got his money from the school to return

 

[Rocketman84]

Let me just throw this out there to talk that truly know ball, if we don’t land anyone within the portal how likely are we to make the playoffs or win a nattie in 2026?

Playoffs? 50%
Natty? 5%

 

[Rocketman84]

For those few on the site...with alternate... tastes

From Driskell

Mylan Graham made it to campus tonight.

There is also a name on the board (WR) that is still playing.

 

[T-Boone]

I just don't care who we get or who we don't get. Its just, pretty please, with sugar on top...win a fuckin championship.

I knew they would get Toney somehow.

Loy confirms the Graham report.

“Not done by any stretch, but people connected here really like ND’s chances.

I do too.”

Why do people have to be about attention?

Like dude, pay for your info just like a lot of us do and go on with your day. I bring stuff back here if I see if first so you all can see it. But I don’t go blast it like I own my own site.

I mean, I get it. Cash on the barrel is hard to turn down. But you do think some of these guys would think at least a little bit longer term and take this opportunity. And it's not like we're not also going to make them a very wealthy 21-year-old, just a smidge less wealthy than they would be in Lubbock.

I think we all know Keeley's potential but if you haven't checked out Mylan Graham's highlights, they're awesome. Fiason is shifty but Graham would be our fastest WR by a mile.

All we need are a DE, a WR, and two DTs. If we are closing in on the DE and a legit WR, maybe we're getting the party started?

Seen him play in HS. Definitely was a special player in the fort wayne area

I'd still take her. She has potential.

Kicker, we NEED a GOOD Fuckin' FG kicker.

I may be alone but I really don’t care about kicker if we don’t have a playoff DL. And Schmidt will be a true sophomore. But yes, we should get one but it’s down the list.

 

[NDdomer2]

Has there been any reports on Gilliam since he left campus?

 

[US_Highway14]

Another K off the board. North Texas of all schools lol

 

[The Backer]

Reminds me of Luther Burden 3

I have to imagine the migration of college coaches going to the NFL is going to continue in the years to come. It's crazy to have to manage a roster this way every year at the college level, and the lower you are on the food chain, the worse it's going to be to try and survive. It is a fair question to wonder how the G5 and FCS will be able to sustain programs.

ND is Fortunate to have gotten Charlie Partridge with that being said. I figured he went to the Colts because he'd had enough.
