[irishnd31]

He just visited last week and Loy called him almost the closest thing to a lock you can have

So there’s that…

 

[irishnd31]

[Irish Man3]

So there’s that…

But besides that, how can we be sure and will he stay at DT? Asking for a friend

Julius Jones please

Julius Jones please

I’ll go with Vaughn. But would be thrilled with either!

 

[arrowryan]

Loy said it’s not Vaughn.

Dream scenario is Jones. More realistic outcome is Hawk

If it is more than one, I could see Hawk and/or Coleman. Wouldn't rule out Wagner or Cooper

 

[Rizzophil]

Jones and Coleman are my picks to click

 

[Ricochet]

Yeah, either him or Coleman.

I want Jones to have a ceremony to draw attention to us. Stars announcing on public forums helps us imo

Notre Dame is already signing top classes, contending for CFPs, and has a rockstar HC that everyone likes. Idk if they need any more attention. Publicly commit asap please.

 

[IRISHbluehen]

Coleman and Hawk announcing today per Wiltfong. He also still likes ND for Folorunsho next week 🍀

Has there been a new power hour posted yet? I need to mow my lawn this afternoon and that seems like a good time to start it LOL

 

[allenm5333]

Neither Coleman or Hawk were in Roberts' next 5 to commit article lol

yep. He wrote that on Monday at the latest. I'm all for not procrastinating, but that's pretty bad intel on his part.

Friday after Monds. He kept hinting a Big 10 DL would transfer and it was Grey. Other than that, he misses all the time

That's when it was posted right? I'm saying I bet he wrote it on Monday and posted it on Friday to have something "new" for subscribers to read.

Every time we get a commit, he posts a next 5 to commit article. He actually posted 2 after the 2 commits Friday. Both time Hawk and Coleman were not on it.

 

[NDFAN2008]

Just shows how clueless he is

 

[Dale]

WR Jackson Coleman, TE Titus Hawk and DE Ifeanyi Emedobi should all be on commit watch if staff actually wants them

Would love to see action on Parks and Folo

Fakatou everyone should temper expectations when we come out the leader Monday

Coleman ✅
Hawk ✅
Emedobi 🛑 - not commitable, Jackson Vaughn
Parks - 💤 per 2008
Folo - ⏰ commitment date set
Fakatou - 📈 hype cycle engaged

Emedobi measured in at ~6'1 at a recent camp, thinking that will preclude him from being an edge at this level. Did run sub 4.5 though which is nuts. Would be curious if he could be a LB in college. Certainly would have the athleticism necessary

Maybe he’s the next Dwight Freeney? 😆

 

[NDFAN2008]

Roberts doesn't have Folo in his next 5

 

[allenm5333]

Roberts doesn't have Folo in his next 5

He is afraid of Miami stealing this one
