Better update than expected. Last I heard it was sounding like it was slipping away here

ND has made up a ton of ground. They were completely out of the picture when Bullough left

we have has good of shot as anyone, head to head with Miami and Texas A&M

Sounds like we also get his last visit on 6/19.

For some kids in the current recruiting environment that's a good thing, but many of them don't end up making it through their official visits because a big program gives them a "take it, or leave it" offer they can't refuse, in order to stop them from going on other officials and hearing competing ofders / recruiting pitches.

Hopefully Henderson makes it back to Notre Dame!

Luckily when dealing with someone like Henderson if he has good counsel he should know that no one is truly turning away a talent like his if he decides to wait to decide.

Yea, getting strong armed into a commitment for cash isn’t the best way to start a meaningful relationship.

Man he’s got a face for radio

Notre Dame going in home Tuesday night. ND is feeling optimistic

Freeman also told him he’s not going anywhere which has helped ND

I hope we land this kid we need another difference maker coming in at LB. We will
Lose Ausberry, Sneed and Bowen. I have a feeling KVA comes back for his senior year due to him missing time last year.

I wonder it Ausberry could come back under the 5 for 5 rule

 

[NDhoosier]

I still feel like this would be the biggest "steal" of the class if ND ends up landing Henderson. No way this kid comes to ND 5 years ago.

Ausberry has one more year left

No way 75% of these kids come here if Kelly is still coach

 

[allenm5333]

Ausberry has one more year left

Yes. But under the 5 for 5 rule he may get another. Similar to Faison

 

[benneboy]

Yes. But under the 5 for 5 rule he may get another. Similar to Faison

He has 1 one year available after 2026 regardless of that rule. This is his red shirt junior year.

Posted in wrong thread.

I got my hopes up and finally watched his film. Let me be clear I absolutely want him but this isn't a KVA level LB, IMO. He's smaller and his highlights show athleticism and big hits, but he's not an in the box fighter, at least not from his highlights. He's not rubbing shoulders and shedding blocks like a KVA. He almost seems like a charged up Ausberry.

Absolutely want him in the class but my expectations of him being an immediate impact player were tampered a bit from his highlights. But again maybe he has those in the box skills and they just didn't show on his film.

I was just thinking this yesterday. I think he is a 5* athlete and has 5* potential, but he's not a 5* Linebacker at the moment. KVA was much more polished as a Linebacker heading into his Senior year than Henderson is.

 

[NDhoosier]

Honestly, he kind of reminds me of Sneed

 

[irishandy]

The Freeman effect of recruiting, agree with NDhoosier that he reminds of Sneed recruitment and look where Sneed landed up.

 

[NDFAN2008]

I have a hunch we pull this one off he’s been liking every single one of our current commitments post.

 

[NDhoosier]

I do too. I think ND ends up the winner in the end here. Just a hunch though.

anyone want to share

Nothing too crazy. ND is 2nd but “creeping up” on Texas A&M.

 

[NDFAN2008]

A&M took 4 LB's last year along with some transfers I feel like he would have a better chance to see the field here

Agreed, there is a decent chance he could see the field in his freshman year as a rotational player. Similar to Faraimo last year. ND's LB corp could lose its top 4 players after this season.
