‘27 FL LB Kaden Henderson (Offer)

[Me2SouthBend]

The II pod made it clear that he hates the cold and it is a legit hurdle

So he’ll only sign w a NFL team that plays indoors or in the south and won’t travel to outdoor northern games. Got it. Best of luck young man.

I never get this argument. Yes, the NFL weather might be an inevitability, but he also may land in a warm climate NFL. And even so, if you hate it, why subject yourself to it for 4 more years than you have to?

He must not have legit interest in the NFL then

I live in NY. If you told me I could get a guaranteed 3-4 years away from this...sign me up

Then why is he visiting ND and OSU?

Then why is he visiting ND and OSU?

Hurdles aren't insurmountable.

 

[Blazers46]

Then why is he visiting ND and OSU?

To be fair I used to live in the SW but took more money to come back to Granger, IN.

 

[Rocketman84]

Thomas Davis is legit and Clapper was a guy our staff wanted from the start. I wouldn't grade it that harshly, at least a B+ in my book.

B-

 

[Rocketman84]

Fly Kory Minor's mom in for the visit and have her follow him around campus giving him pep talks.

You remember some Gems

 

[Rocketman84]

So stoked for this. Probably won't end up at ND, but I'm ready to be hurt.

Sounds good, so why worry about cold for 3 years?

Only the important stuff.

Ok great. He can go to Miami and come up to South Bend once or twice and get his ass kicked while he shivers on and off the field along w all of his cold weather averse teammates. We’ve seen this movie and know that it ends well for the good guys.

 

[MeanGreenBeans]

Did this visit happen?

Yes.

The visit went well, may have already scheduled an official visit in the summer to ND. Not close to deciding or anything, but I think ND should at least be considered a player here.

Sounds good to me.

In reading updates from both ISD and On3, ND in much better shape here than previously thought. OV scheduled for 6/19. Really likes the idea of filling KVA's role of a swiss army knife type of LB

In my opinion, if he makes it to that visit, he ends up Irish.

I’d put him up there with Julius Jones and Folorunsho in terms of “importance”. We could definitely use a stud LB.

 

[Cpnd1]

In the top 2 for him according to Wiltfong. Texas A&M leads, but we have tightened it up

A&M appears to be at 2022 class levels of spending

Getting embarrassed at home in back to back games to end a season can open the wallet sometimes

So can blockading the Straight of Hormuz...

 

[Cpnd1]

Yea that article is basically just Wiltfong saying they lead for like four other 5 stars outside of Henderson. Also says we are the main competition for Simien but that A$M lead going into his OVs.

we are 100% gonna finish in 2nd place here

 

[JD Irish]

Yup, but let's continue to pretend we are offering enough money to sign the top players.

 

[arrowryan]

Yup, but let's continue to pretend we are offering enough money to sign the top players.

Oh brother

 

[Dale]

I feel like hundreds have posters have gone through phases of “ND doesn’t spend enough” on Irish Envy. 2026 has to be one of the funniest times to have that be your shtick.

 

[rikkitikki08]

You mean like the top 3 class ND just signed? I don’t have to pretend, that’s the reality
