[BobbyMac]

Demetric Warren with a CB to Ohio St.

Wiltfong with a CB to Stanford.

Wiltfong is with him in Beaverton.

ND does really good against these schools so I like our odds.

 

[IrishLion]

IrishLion with a CB to ND, after all of our players look like The Hulk on national TV every week and EQ puts up 1100 yards and 14 TD's.

I know that Osiris went to Stanford, but I just don't know if I see Amon-Ra going there with how empty that stadium is outside of Southern Cal and ND games.

 

[Henges24]

Can we lock this thread? It makes me depressed every time I see his name pop up for how things turned out. Feels like just a few years ago we were sitting back, legs crossed, hands behind our head cause the St. Brown brothers were going to just fall right into our lap.

Funny how things "work" out.

Oh, and IN before the "step off the ledge" comments.

That's not entirely true.

They have near capacity crowds for Cal, Washington and if Oregon is good too. Not a lot of red to be found on those days outside of Cal where they actually close the computer labs for the second half forcing the students to decide, do I go to the game or take my quarterly shower?

Reminds me of the Browners.

LOLOL, great stuff man.

I would love for him to come here but Stanford just makes so much sense. Honestly why would he come here? Because he might catch passes with EQ for a year? Who knows if EQ even comes back. Osirs is a year behind him, but losing Osiris wasn't a huge deal even though I don't think he was ever coming here really. If EQ gets accepted into Stanford then all three would have been at Stanford.

Former ND player meets an ND alum on Wall St, tells them he was on the football team and the alum names off the entire roster, the details of the winning drives vs. SC and Michigan St their soph year and how many PBR's they drank in the parking lot.

Former Stanford player meets a Stanford alum in Silicon Valley, tells them he played on the football team and the alum says, "What's foosball?"

How about WR production? They threw for 2000 yds. (roughly) last season. They didn't even have a WR over 500 yds., leading WR was Trent Irwin at 442, on the season. His brother (EQ) doubled that as a sophomore. I remember when people were all over Chris Brown for not "producing". He had two seasons that eclipsed 500 (548/597). And that was deemed, not good enough, lol. Corey Robinson and Cj Prosise eclipsed 500 in a season. That's how bad that passing offense was.

That offense was complete garbage last year.

I get that part their offense is completely different then ours.

But they have Davis Mills who IMO is the chosen one

Different, or terrible.

Wimbush will probably be pretty good himself, lol

I wouldn't say it's terrible. They find ways to win games and I understand their offense won't bring any big time WR's to the Farm. In terms of recruiting rankings who has BK brought in as a top 50 prospect at WR or a 5*(elite one)? None, so I know our passing offense at WR's are the furthest thing from the problem but still I think with ASB and Stanford it's different. Seems like all three brothers wanted to go there and I think his dad has said he wanted all his kid's at Stanford and EQ would have gone to Stanford so who knows.

I know Wimbush will be pretty damn good himself, but you get four years of Davis Mills and Amon Ra I feel pretty confident saying he could be a 1,000 WR in that kind of offense because of Amon Ra and Mills. Stanford offense has opened up the playbook a lot over the last few years IMO. They still play smash mouth football but it's not as much as when Harbaugh was there.

I love Davis Mills I really feel like one day he will be a top 3 pick in the NFL Draft.

Fans - ND
Atmosphere - ND
Night life - ND (basically the only time you can win on this one as ND)
Exposure - ND
Girls - you're wrong on Stanford and have obviously never stepped foot on their campus.

Davis Mills will see the field when KJ Costello allows it. Mills and Costello had similar statistical careers in HS except Mills played against 3A out of 7A GA teams while KJ did it in the #1 conference in the country and stepped out of conference vs. Bishop Gorman - had 330yd and 440yd games against them and a 25/33, 400+ yd 4 TD game against everyone's favorite QB, Flake Barnett. Best HS football performance I ever saw . Most satisfying ever too as they throttled the future Bama bailer.

Just IMO I think Mills job when he is ready. Costello still is fighting for the number 1 job this year.

No doubt about those things but besides exposure a little more at ND. But I think ASB will choose to compete for Pac 12 titles and play in New Years six bowls mostly every year which will give him exposure. No doubt ND can do those things as well but it's time to start doing it and not talking about it. Stanford has shown they can do that on and year in and year out. As well with Shaw being there and landing Costello with Mills and most likely JT Daniels next year those are three franchise QB's that won't see Stanford falling off the map at all IMO.

He's a 5* talent and he will have the exposure at Stanford. If you can play you can play. Stanford might not be an elite level football program but it's a great program and has outperformed ND for years outside of ND making it to the title game.and football atmosphere I don't think any of those things will matter to ASB. I was being sarcastic with the girls. I just assumed Cali girls would beat Chicago girls(who I love) and Indiana girls.

Stanford seems to win most of these one on one battles against us and their are a ton but ND has lost some players that would have helped out ND this year and for years to come. I named them in another thread. ND needs to start winning again like Stanford and beat them head to head every year. Competing against Stanford and winning fourth quarter battles isn't gonna get it done. Yes, I'm aware we have beaten Stanford a couple times since BK has been here but he's come up short when they have mattered against Stanford IMO. Win this year and beat Stanford again and we will start flipping some of these recruiting battles. We will never win them all but we at least need to make it 50/50 again. Stanford will probably take Booker ND needed to land just based off talent and the position he plays. I also think losing Adebo last year really sucked but there are about 10 other recruits we have lost battles to Stanford against that would have helped ND this season. Yes, I'm aware as well that we have won some battles against Stanford.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

And yet we are all ignoring the ASB wants his own path, make his own journey. Not follow his brother to Notre Dame. Not follow his brother to Stanford. But to go to USC and play Stanford and ND every year.

Unfortunately I agree with Sherm on this.

 

[BobbyMac]

I will projectile vomit the first time I see a Sears to ASB completion.

 

[IrishFanForever23]

Nothing new here. Doesn't look good for ND.

[irishandy]

I still say ND has a shot and will be 1 of his finalists. Who will USC have at QB next year if Darnold goes pro? Plus they lost their 5* QB for next years class.

 

[dwshade]

I have a feeling there will be twists and turns in this recruitment all the way to signing day.

I agree. Don't think it will necessarily mean good things for ND, but he's going to take visits, and he's going to get the full court press from a lot of schools.

Matt Fink is probably the back up until Jack Sears passes him up this year at some point. Sears was Darnold's WR/Back up QB at San Clemente HS, I've always been a big fan.

In '18 they will get one of the following westcoast guys:

Tyler Shough
Tanner McKee
Colson Yankoff
Jack Tuttle
Cameron Rising

Then in '19 it's all in on JT Daniels.

They'll be fine as usual.

Ellis switched his CB to foggy (was Irish).

This isn't going to happen.
