Think it's time to make a profile for Nnamdi Ogboko. Guys at ISD think that the ND staff feel they have a real shot.
Tough to make him out at times in his highlight tape for this year on HUDL. The camera work isn't great.

I watched and am unsure if this is one I'm excited about. Certainly doesn't hurt to take bodies but this isn't the typical "stolen from Georgia" IMO.

We should keep in mind he’s been playing football for just a year or two…….I think he‘s all potential right now. I’m sure the staff sees his athleticism at his size and projects his upside as a good bet.

even if hes being processed to some level at georgia they clearly thought his upside was worth rostering for the time being as well.

Looks to also have offers from Florida and Michigan. (also Dartmouth and Yale). Seems like a reasonable project. Why not?

if we could grab one or two splashy recruits would help take the stank off this season

Any noise on this kid since we are out on Nelson + Jimbo got fired? Has a follow from Al Washington and some of our Jornos. Great offer list.
Recruting is another reason we needed to part with Parker at first BYE.

How can you get traction with an offensive player this late in the game when there's no way they'll be impressed with the offense, and you can't tell them it'll change?

It's easier to Recruit to an open position vs a known train wreck.

I'm looking at the 24/25 class rankings and projections and we really need this fuND to start PAYING lol

We're not far from the elite but when you look at the top 50 players you see the same teams time & time again..

If we can entice 2 or 3 of these 5* kids a year I think we'll have a legit run in the playoffs..

So damn close..

We need to be focused on taking STUDS first before going after projects...Georgia can go after projects because they get multiple guys drafted every year off the DL.

The kids we need to pay for are top 50 recruits. Out of the top 50 recruits on the 247 composite from the 2013-2017 classes, over 71% of them have either been drafted or played in the NFL (UDFA). So if ND were to buy 4 more top 50 recruits every year, about 3 of them would be NFL players. Those are good odds.

Blessing in disguise Canion decommitted when he did bc he was a pure Stuckey guy, both from Warner Robbins. Logan saldate might not have happened for us this late in the process.
