That is way too aggressive. I want Amon-Ra SB as much as anyone but he wanted the USC life. Tbf to the St. Brown family, their time with ND was tainted by Kelly and rather poor QB play for a stretch.

The B10 and BIG 12 and ACC could use this to their advantage. Since they are in favor of the 24 team playoff, they should work to scheduled as many premier cross-conference games as they can to further weaken the SEC image. They'll be adding data points to help evaluate strength while the SEC...

I think the SEC is very wrong and I think it takes an incredible amount of hubris for the AD to say what he said without blushing. The SEC has been getting pummeled in the playoffs. Now that everyone can pay, they have lost their stronghold and their once esteemed conference shows poorly when...

It doesn't have to be "who'd you rather have" at this point. I want the staff to go out and finish the best defensive line haul we've ever seen. That is the case whether they get Fakatou or Alexander. One might feel like a bigger exclamation but if I'm being honest, Alexander looks like a guy...

Those clips from Driskell really ratchet up my excitement for Monds. I was afraid he was another athletic QB with a big arm but likely lacking touch or the ability to read defenses. In those clips he's layering balls at all levels and making incredible throws. If he can keep his footwork...

2027 ND: 93 DE, 92 DL, waiting on 95 DE, 93 DL, 91 DE (who'll be a 94/95 by end of rankings), 90 DL 2026 ND: 98 DE, 93 DE, 92 DL, 88 DL, Transfers: 94 DL, 94 DL, 92 DL 2025 ND: 96 DE, 89 DL, 88 DL, 88 DL Looks like 2026+ has seen a massive increase in the quality DL recruits

Fair enough. Mine is more of an intellectual exercise for how we should allocate what is a limited amount of funds from donors. Even if it's a lot and you can maybe ask for more, you must balance roster needs, evaluate the perceived value of a recruit vs. current roster, trends in...

If you were constructing a roster, do you think that offer is necessary? Given the current OL class, the prior OL class, how many hits we've heard about. I want them to make a competitive offer but I'm awful at evaluating OL and I know we've recruited the last 3 classes at a very high level...

If there are still questions that need to be answered, I'm starting to get that sinking feeling that ND may need to have backup plans in place. If this turns into a squeeze, ND rarely plays that game for multiple iterations. Really hope I'm wrong

You guys see where DJ McKinney is near the bottom of the graph but around the 70% man grade? He played on a shit defense last year where zone coverage was likely suspect. If he's the other starting corner, we'll have the best cornerback tandem in college football and because Moore's distance...

I was going to post this multiple times. I remember multiple pods/reports after that Irish Invasion where the staff were saying he was unbelievable/unstoppable and they'd never seen a more dominating performance. Even more impressive based on his age. Might turn into a critical piece of ND's...

I really like his acceleration and his ability to work through 'the mess'. He sheds blocks and stays locked onto the ball while engaged. I think this would be an excellent add who is likely a 2nd year contributor at LB. Might be a special teams guy immediately.

1. Leonard Moore 2. Boubacar Traore 3. Brauntae Johnson 4. Kingston Viliamu-Asa 5. Adon Shuler 6. Francis Brewu 7. Drayk Bowen 8. DJ Mckinney 9. Bryce Young 10. Christian Gray/Dallas Golden 11. Jason Onye 12. Rodney Dunham (with a lot of potential to move up) 13. Elijah Hughes 14. Madden Faraimo...

Those are damn good numbers for a "developmental player" going into his senior year. Even if some of the weight is 'bad', he's gotten an enormous frame.
