'23 FL ATH Jordan Faison (Notre Dame Signee)

[T-Boone]

Word on the street he was more interested in catching passes vs catching a buzz

Can you explain this for those like me with no street cred?

 

[T-Boone]

Beat writers said he was the best receiver at getting open from early fall camp on. If Stuckey didn’t play him because he was a walk-on and not one of his guys, then I’m glad he’s gone. Faison is a stud. Best freshman receiver since Stepherson (including Greathouse and Rico) and he played half a season

He is better than Stepherson in my opinion.

Just throwing this out there after his MVP game…. Julian Edelman Comp? Similar height, a bit lighter but has room to get to 195ish?

 

[NDFAN2008]

Be nice if he can get up to 195 next year idk how much weight I’d put on tho

I think we forgot how good he was.

Agreed, thinking muscle but definitely don’t want him to lose is quickness, twitch and speed!!

Stepherson was special. Faison isn’t that level imo

Multiple ND players have said he was the best football player they ever played with

Let's be real, if he was as good as everyone thought he was, he wouldn't be MIA right now. It is very possible he had a very high ceiling and did alot of amazing things in practice, but to act like he was some prime time player when he isn't even on an NFL practice squad right now, is kind of crazy.

There are a ton of talented football players just walking the street. Talent is a dime a dozen. It's having the mental fortitude to maximize the talent and block out any noise and be professional. If someone isn't approaching the game with an intensity and professionalism, they won't even touch a practice squad.

I’m just repeating what they said. Chris Finke was the last player I’ve seen say that

They also said not to expect to see him this year cause he was that physically underdeveloped lol.

In 7 games played, Faison ends his freshman season:

19 Receptions, 322 yds, 4 TDs

Definitely on the breakout watchlist for next year. He's going to make everyone else better because eventually, they're going to bracket him if this is his floor.

I'm a huge fan, and with an 11 year old daughter that switched from gymnastics to lacrosse this past summer, we've got a new hero in our house.

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

The important question is how he did at lacrosse practice today?

[IrishLax]

He had a goal this weekend. Heard he looked pretty good… could be in the mix at midfield by year end.

Kids gonna be playing on Sundays

Tate isn’t even on the list. Hopeless.

...and we went away from him in the Louisville game...

 

[Crazy Balki]

...and we went away from him in the Louisville game...

To be fair, we went away from literally everything on offense in the Louisville game....

 

[PutuporShutup]

...and we went away from him in the Louisville game...

And he was on scout team before Louisville

 

[Irish#1]

And Brock Purdy was drafted last, Tom Brady 199th and Montana at the end of the third round. As much as we'd like our coaches to be perfect, coaches miss on guys all the time. I like that they saw he had more than scout team talent and elevated him. I wouldn't say moving a guy from walk-on to varsity after 6 or 7 games of his freshman year was a fail.

 

[IrishLax]

Be happy he has potential to be a baller, don’t be sad that Porker, Stuckey, and Co. kept him maybe underutilized him in Year 1.
