Doesn't seem crazy at all but to Zelezo's point, what's crazy would be this catching the staff by surprise or unprepared.

In that article Loy also says that Miles to ND is no slam dunk with Texas Tech lurking. So, next up is Ziglar. It’ll be a full two weeks from his OV to Mencke Jr’s. That strategy looks more and more bizaree as the days go by. I guess we’ll see.

This doesn’t phase me much because I never really believed the hype anyways. I think that was just crootin fodder to increase the stakes. I love our DL class. I’d wait for the season and see if there is someone worth pushing for later.

Loy’s comments make it seem like ND is in great position. article posted above. He gave one quote in there that I thought was very interesting. When asked about did ND talk about NIL, he said Gotta hope that’s the case. Would even out the scales quite a bit.

The problem with DL recruiting isn’t the recruiting itself but the narrative that ND was going to take 6 or 7 guys. Some times folks can’t separate ND would take 6 from ND needs to take 6. Numbers and wants are two very different things as far as structuring a depth chart. NT is covered, you...

Wiltfong posted that he and Loy are close to CB’s for Shaw. That would be wild

Seems like they are done for now.

I see little chance O’Leary is making these decisions on his own. These are decisions being made by Bowden and Freeman just like last cycle with Bowen and Hillman.

If the staff isn’t able to close either Miles or Ziglar in a short period of time, the decision on Mencke looks awfully bizarre.

I don’t think so. I’d say we got Young in that possible role of a SDE/3T. Who I think has more upside. BDS is another on those guys that maxed out early. He’s a good player at this level and will likely be a solid player at the collegiate level but his eval has been trending lower since...

I believe I read, his PR triple jump was the 2nd or 3rd best in nation this year?

Canion wasn’t there but he’s quite the prospect as well.

Too many parallels between this recruitment and Pyne’s. The recruiting of every position should play through an eval that old. Just like it should have with Pyne but that was one of Kelly’s faults. Shouldn’t be Freeman’s. With guys like Greathouse and in the same class Gilbert, I just don’t...

To be fair, I don’t think many thought Smythe was going to carry on that tradition and here he is guaranteed to have approx $14M in total NFL earnings after his last contract. Could be more.

I’m much higher on Flannigan than I am Larsen. He’s, at the very least, a large dude that should develop as a blocker. I’m worried Larsen is a slow TE in a big WR’s body. Though, I will say that it looks like Larsen has very good ball skills. Which, if someone can consistently make contested...

Might be some confusion around his Elite 11 post. He must of received his swag in the mail and posted a pic on Instagram. Though I believe that isn’t until June 14th-16th.

I’ve always been a big fan of in-person eval. However, those evals are still subject to change based on development.

Which is why I find it somewhat odd they're spending so much time on him. They must be rather high on this young man because he's seemingly getting quite the treatment for a guy who's not an immediate contributor.

I think the somewhat permanent move inside should be really good for him.

Tae cancelling Purdue OV seems to confirm he’s a true silent with the staffs standards. Could be what kept Mencke out of the class. He wanted to commit but take visits.
