I may be in the minority, but I'm not all that high on Vizzina. Don't get me wrong, I would've taken him if he wanted to commit before Minchey flipped, but I don't think he's as good as his ranking would indicate.
You’re a sensitive drunk. We get it. Go have some warm milk and go to bed.
LOL I was thinking Built Bars…and Mountain Dew
It's absurd to think that Kelly and Long would give a green position coach any sort of agency to pick his own QB, when they run the offensive recruiting room.
That is insanely wrong.
Kept him? Kelly bolted like two weeks before Signing Day. Who else were they going to get? Minchey and Carr are substantially better recruits.
He's also a true freshman. Unless you're a generational talent like Trevor Lawrence you're not starting as a freshman. ND also honors their offers, which is commendable. Angeli got time before you can throw his carcass to the curb.
How many visits has Carr taken to other campus'? CJ Carr would certainly risk his families rep for a few extra bucks, checks out.
To be fair, if ND adds Card and he does well, as well as Minchey hitting his ceiling, why would Carr still come? Rhetorical question. Too many variables prior to him setting foot on campus but the moment he didn’t re-classify, his commitment was definitely tossed back up in the air.
I suspect he thinks he’s better than both of those guys. And he wasn’t afraid of competing with Moore when he was committed. I don’t think the depth chart will scare him off. This kid carries himself like he has as much confidence as he does talent.
It’s the kind of problem you want ND to have so here’s to hoping one of the three hit their ceiling.
Seems to me that you need to get the sand out of your Vazzina…
Minchey is good but Vazzina and Arnold are a tier above him.
He was QB Coach when Jurkovec was recruited. Wimbush never developed and we don’t know if Buchner can stay healthy.
The only issue MF and TR are responsible for is clearly not getting a Transfer QB last season. That was the costly mistake.
His hs film is very average. It drove me insane listening to all the people demanding that he start, he’s not any good.
Arnold and Moore are deserving of their 5* status. Vizzina seems like a total wild card. Would rather have Minchey and not all that close.
Ok so you can relate to posters driving other posters insane? Good to know
You mods are some sneaky SOBs haha. Keep up the good work1988 got his connection working well and has lots of opinions.... must've had them bottled up for four months!
Lots of criticisms of Steve Angeli just before he could take his first meaningful snaps here. I sure hope he doesn’t make IE’s best and brightest look like silly.
I'm conflicted with Angeli. My initial thoughts were that he's nothing special - maybe slightly better than Pyne, but the other part of me has very high expectations given that he was identified early on as a must-get at QB in the 2022 class.
Not trying to be mean here. What do you base this off of? High school tape, rankings, blue/gold game, or what you see in public practices?
Being slightly better than Pyne? Pretty much just on what I watched from his HS tape and what I've read from folks who cover ND recruiting. Basically a quality game manager but not someone who will take you to a CFP appearance or win a title.
