Guy like Fiske will take immediate payout because a sustained NFL future is an uphill battle

What happened to that guy who kept saying FUNDS are low. Was annoying but now seems pretty apt

Exactly it’s only a matter of time Freeman is gonna get tired of wasting all his efforts just for a team to swoop on with money and land a kid without even establishing a relationship

I think this could end up being a part of it, effort no longer will get it done on its own as we have seen. More so, if we keep losing guys the talent level drops, this will effect his record IE his career/livelihood.

That's my concern. ND may not like it, but it's the world we live in. Adapt or die about sums it up. Shitty but it is what it is

Are we or are we not paying these guys when they get here? So the differences is signing bonuses and probably a better salary elsewhere?

We’re simply not paying.. do yourselves a favor & don’t get excited about anyone unless they clearly want to be at Notre Dame over the money.. far and few between.

It really is disappointing that we’re not doing what everyone else is clearly getting away with..

I feel like I’m back being that poor kid that only goes shopping to window shop. Big dreams but no bank roll.

Al Washington seems to be the chink in the armor. I do not see the talent being developed and he is losing high end talent. If things do not turn around in the next years development and recruiting ND has to start looking some place else. Who do we go and get though?

This was 100% NIL. Loy hinted at it a few days ago. And basically confirmed it along with others. ND is in big trouble in the current climate.

Exactly they better start offering some upfront money or deals or else we can kiss the playoffs goodbye and that includes a 12 team expansion

ND converted over 30% of their pressures into sacks the only power 5 team to do that

Ugh. We need to pay transfers who are proven and likely starters. It’s not the same as paying 25 high school signees up front
We’re talking 2-3 guys a year considering we keep most of our players 3-4 years
Notre Dame has a stick up it's ass. They will lose out on anything money related to paying players. They will happily take all the profit

The idea that they can't or dont earn significant money at ND is absurd. If guys want guaranteed or upfront...shrug.
Obviously NDs NIL isn't commensurate to what is being offered. Going to be fun when 9-3 is our ceiling
