I'm not sure if this is a wishlist? Because if it's a projection, I'm not seeing it. This would be an insane (and complete) 25 man class, and right now it would score 312.39 on the 247 class calculator, like closer to 320 points by time guys are re-evaluated and re-ranked throughout the class... This would be far and away the best recruiting class (by the numbers / ranking) that ND has ever landed. It would be a significant outlier and the clear #1 class in the country.

Kemon Spell and Seneca Driver...that would have been insane.

Oklahoma has 3... a little surprised they are doing so well.

Kemon Spell and Seneca Driver...that would have been insane.

No doubt but they still have nine 5 stars to name and the only reason they don't name all 32 is so they have content to put out through the fall and winter.

If they actually gave out the final nine 5 Stars Hasan would be he's fifth

Then you have Dollar, Henderson who also fall into that camp.

As awesome as this class is I was told this weekend that it could've been even that much better because they had some prospects that were about to come to ND and NIL packages that were x2 as much to one that was significantly more than double. I can tell you that it wasn't Spell or Fakatou.

They didn't have the insight with Henderson going to A&M when everyone including the staff thought he was going Irish.

Spell loved everything about ND football program but in the end he could go to UGA with great RB tradition and development without hard schooling, party lifestyle with player development.

Fakatou situation he believed was nothing more than a perfect storm against ND with Washington moving on and the slow subtle negative recruiting that created enough doubt overtime that it's not going to last at ND because all this is a "Freeman Honeymoon phase"

I was told who it wasn't but I'm sure CB Joshua Dobson was one of them, the staff was killing it with him and his family when got a NIL offer that they couldn't turn down and ND couldn't justify with the package they gave Zay Hasan when they see them as equal talents. Also he definitely hinted that USC beat out ND for prospects because of the crazy money that they were throwing at them.

Gavin Williams…i would guess the connecticut DE got paid and we wouldn’t go there. Our DE recruiting hadn’t peaked at that point
