Look, until we get 5 star kids to sign and push into the top 5, it is what it is. I think we have a good chance of changing that. Ohio State has no problem signing 5 star players, regardless of recent developments. Bama recruits better than us. We are like Kansas State to Bama.
Not even close lol.
Do you know how many 5-star recruits that Clemson signed in the four years before they won it all in 2016? Five, in total. They started reeling in several more each year after that, but you don't need to have a roster full of 5-star kids if you've got elite QB play.
One cant really compare this to the "same old notre dame recruiting". A) its a new age with NIL and parents getting their hands on that and B) we have a great damn class if it sticks verses not having having a even a shot at a great class which we have had too many times in the last 20 years. Go look at Michigan if you want a view of what Willingham recruiting looked like.
It's not, which is why it's tiring to see the same ideas put out and the sky is falling about how ND will never be great. Except MF is proving that he can recruit at a high level and he has gotten an elite QB to commit to him.
The Alabama and Auburn fandom here is on a totally different level, it is pretty interesting to sit back and watch 😊
We aren’t quite recruiting at Georgia level under Kirby
I'm also wondering why in the world Loy would tweet this. The only thing that seems to have any logical connection is that Kyle Hamilton is with RHOBACK. Besides that, why pimp a Bama kid.
We've also been consistently out-performing the talent level of our roster, whereas Kirby had been doing the opposite prior to last season.
Probably slightly on each side to your point…. But Kirby got enough talent to dominate the season with an average qb
And we'll do the same eventually if Freeman keeps stacking classes like this one.
God this is as awful as The Last Jedi.
A generationally elite defense let his avg QB become a legend
Well our current rankings say otherwise. Yep, the big dogs close well. We just need to do the same consistently and we’ll be OK!
I'd rather read a book of du Lac posts before I'd watch that piece of shit again.
I’ve been saying this for a hot minute! Hell the last three DC’s have all done more with less in their careers. Imagine where we are headed? The 5 stars will help, but they’re not the end all be all.
He has a lot to replace this season, I doubt they’ll be as successful. Keep in mind, ND should’ve beat GA the last two times we played. So we are closer than you think.
