More I think about it, I wouldnt mind facing Carson Beck in South Bend. As long as we don't drop 3 picks like we did against Army, he'd be due for at least 2 against us.

Can we get Hartline...hell anybody who actually can bring in Playmaking WRs and some legit pass rushers and were set to actually win a chip.

DT (1-2), WR (2), S, CB....possibly QB and maybe DE due to injury concerns

🤔🤔

Yea about that....I wish

I'd take him over Sanders...guy has a average arm and holds on to the ball forever and a day. He has 3 NFL caliber WRs so that helps him throw all those bubble screen TDs.

While carrying the ball as much as Riley Leonard and barely over 100 attempts. Get him 15-17 touches a game all season and were UNDEFEATED thus far.

Beating a dead horse, here comes the people saying we shop down different isles, culture fits, come from good homes and can deal with the academic rigors and standards. NIL is king and forget 4 for 40 etc etc

I'd say its alarming we can't land none of our top 8 targets at a position of need and have to rely on the portal as a bridge gap. Especially when lower tier schools have no issues bringing in these type of recruits. Kudos for being close to a playoff berth, showing depth at a few positions and...

No decent tradition? Schools such as Texas Tech, Missouri for starters. As for teams middling around .500 well Michigan, U$C, Oklahoma and Auburn.

Notre Dame has been in the same locale since 1842 and since recruiting rankings have been tracked going back over 45+ years you do realize ND was a mainstay in the Top 5 for about 30+ of those years and Top 10 for 35 years so never, ever is false because it's already been done before for...

Agreed! Some of the harsh truths about today's game, the landscape has changed so much from the time I was being recruited 20 years ago! Seems like it was more like 30 years ago with the dynamic of recruiting and NIL.

I think the "rankings crowd" is more concerned with the comparison against the likes of 'Bama, O$U, Georgia and even Texas as opposed to what Kelly did or is doing now.

Im not sure I would include the DL but other positions have been very good in development. WR, QB, TE and STs have been disappointments recently and DL has been underachieving.

11-1 is a great record but we really had no reason not to be undefeated this season with the schedule we faced combined with our recent play. The recruiting helps because its the foundation of your depth and "in house" WR recruiting has been horrid and not up to par with a top 10 program. This...

Really alarming that these schools with no decent tradition and schools middling around .500 can land "blue chip" guys without a problem, while a traditional and storied program like ND is constantly landing project/filler level recruits.

Even worse is if we replace those whiffs with 3* mid level projects. Somethings gotta give especially with WR recruiting, teams like Texas Tech are even landing 5* guys.

Now let's see what happens with Meadows

If we had Clausen or Quinn we could win a title and actually run our backs as well.

Duerson, Terrell, Burris, Hamilton, Zibby and Ndukwe say hello! Sapp showed his 5* potential his last year and a half on campus as well.
