I'd be pretty shocked if they take more than one more, unless Glover or Roman I want to hop on board before Satele or Henderson decide. Most likely scenario to me is they saw Fox outgrowing LB and turning into an edge, not gonna take him with Vaughn on board now while waiting on Sesay and Fak.

Yea I've said the same thing with Fox, guy is a gamer but will end up in that 6'5 250lb range and on the Edge at some point.

Im just upset we haven’t landed all the Chicago kids. If we aren’t making inroads in New Jersey and Florida, then it seems like this class if a failure

I guess I should’ve just said there wasn’t any new good news in the update. Anyone that pays attention to recruiting knows we are in great shape for Jones and Sessay.

The Parks update is pretty frustrating. I know they landed Folorunsho, but Notre Dame struggling to land kids from Chicago will always be a head scratcher. Especially when they’re already at a Catholic school.

Sadly it's not really a head scratcher, many of those kids aren't Catholic and could care less about the ND Degree. They go to Catholic schools because that's where best football is in Chicago.

But for many of the top recruits its about football, fun and sex. If you don't care that much about school then ND is going to be a hard sell no matter how good the program is doing. They can go elsewhere football is king, school is secondary and a University has an abundance of fun and an abundance of girls. That is something that ND can't offer.

In the pre-NIL world, I would agree. Let’s not act like Oregon is some football factory. They’re best known for having zero traditions and getting pantsed in the CFP.

But they are in the eyes of these young kids. The NIL has actually helped the non-cheating programs to compete with the ones who have been paying these players all along. What hasn't changed is the kids and families who don't care about education and just want the bag and the football development.

Notre Dame offering more money isn't going to attract that type of recruit when it comes with more responsibility. This type would take lets say $300k to have the party, girls and football scene over ND offering $500k and having to go to class and be responsible.

Noah Glover LB committed to Miami.

I see they also got a 5* DT committed today.

It sure seems like the game plan at linebacker is Henderson or bust. With the amount of linebackers leaving after 2026, that is an incredibly ballsy move.

Does anybody know where Miami gets their money from? Is it drug money? I can understand Oregon with Nike and the Texas schools with oil money but have no clue about Miami.

The pods talk ab Julius Jones and Sesay as close to silents at this point. If you add those two i will have a tough time complaining about how this class ends. Would be the most high end talent in a class in the modern era regardless of how we finish imo, with ~10 top 100 talents (including Monds and Vaughn in that)

I love that Glover committed to Miami. That now gives them Randle Jr and Glover in their class, which probably makes Henderson even less likely for them and further cements his recruitment as an ND and Texas A&M battle, which I continue to feel sneakily good about.

The owner of the MLS soccer team / INTER MIAMI is their biggest booster
