Love reading the Huskie message board, they are pretty damn funny win or lose
This dude summed it up well, albeit not entirely accurate:
"Mickens (DB coach), was known as a top young DB coach who was taking 2 Stars nobody wanted & making them All Conference as Freshmen & Sophomores, and getting G5 kids to the NFL.
Freeman, (the new DC), was rated the 4th best recruiter in the country by 247 before getting to ND. He was from Ohio State, (NFL too), then was the lead recruiter & DC that turned Cincinnati into a top 10 team. He chose ND over LSU & a few other SEC schools. Since he was hired 6 months ago he offered and received commitments from the following 4 & 5 Star kids:
LB Burnham (top 100 Michigan legacy)
LB Jr Nuiafe (top 100 flipped from USC)
LB Sneed (top 30, 5 Star MVP)
DE Ford (top 100,
DE Vernon (9th Overall ‘23, OSU Flip)
DE Keeley (top 100 ‘23, Florida)
DE Gobraia (top 150, PSU Flip)
DE Agu (Over Bama & Clemson)
CB Mickey (top 150, California)
CB Moore (4 Star Over Florida & Bama)
CB Bellamy (4 Star, PSU Flip)
And now possibly CB Morrison, who committed to Lake as a 10 year old in a hand written letter.
Already picks in the ‘23 class for 5 Star LBs Bowen (from Indiana near ND) and Styles (brother Lorenzo on ND now) & top 100 overall DT Montgomery.
Marcus Freeman is an animal. Mike Mickens is also a great recruiter too."
