Has WR been reported anywhere? The impression that was given in cancelling Osani Gayle’s visit was that they were happy with a two man class based on the numbers already in the room.
It looked that way but you never know especially with the portal and in season evaluations. Still a bit puzzling when you can have plenty of attrition at the drop of a hat.

A&M at 315 is wild work
Our avg is higher for whatever that is worth. I assume they are more top heavy and we are much more balanced.

I’m curious if they have any reclass kids… I’m too lazy to look.

They are top heavy. You also have to take into account ND's kicker, ranked in the #2,000's (as the #1 kicker) which is greatly hurting ND's average...

On3/Rivals actual rankings has ND at #1. Don't get why they use the Industry Complete for their articles and whatnot over their own rankings.

But then you click on each of them to view the full class and ND has 3 5* not 4 and atm has 5 not 2. I don't get it either. I would think that the composite rankings are the best way to judge since it's an average of where they're ranked on the 3 other sites but idk. I would love to see ND's "big board" for this years class or any year

My only issue with the composite/industry ranking system is that ESPN recruiting is dogshit. Its almost certainly weighted less than the others but it shouldn't even be included at all.

I agree completely ESPN has been terrible at rankings for the 19 years I've been following recruiting. Except this year their top 150 is pretty in line with the other sites. They somehow missed on all our top guys though since we have 0 5* according to them but they've done a lot better this year then every other year. They didn't even drop our guys after they committed so I'm kind of baffled by it

Because if you click it goes back to composite. There's a switch at the top of each team page that says "industry composite" where it will show the individual rankings from each site. Under that Rivals has us with 4 5 stars and A&M with 2.

I can't find the actual rivals rankings. I've clicked on links posted on here though. So I've seen it, but on3 has us with 3 5 stars, 247 sports has us with 2 and atm with 2. While 247 composite has us with 4 and atm with 6.

Prediction: ND lands 8 ***** and 15 top 100 recruits on Rivals. Finishes with the #1 class. What a time to be alive...

Yup. Positions of most need right there. Linebacker and safety. That 25 man class would have no holes. We’re going to get 2 stud TEs in 2028 and Premer is the talk of campus in 26. As much fun as another TE would be…

-LB was weakest position in 26 class - Davis and Clapper
-Safety had a bust in 25 class - Blair, leaving Long who everyone likes, and Logan - a total unknown baseball guy. And which one of the DBs in 26 eventually slide next to JOB? The rest are currently listed as CB/Nickel

If Henderson does visit I think he is ND's best flip candidate, Freeman never got a chance to close.

I just think at some point this season, we have a "WTF we got this guy to flip?" moment. And I almost feel like Henderson isn't really "wtf" worthy because we have a legit shot

I don’t see us trying to Flip any WR because there were talks we turned down Gayle’s
