I highly doubt this.
I’m fine with that but explain to me why ND has not received another commitment from a 2023 qb and ND’s recruiting is on fire? Because they’re supposedly putting out feelers?

I wonder if we hear more on this years Avery Johnson if CJ reclassifies. Ran the fastest 40 at the camp. Not the fastest QB, the whole camp.

Looks tall. Move him to wide out if the qb thing doesn't pan out.

Webb says that he believes that if Moore could go back in time, he'd commit to Notre Dame. And that CJ Carr committing to ND caught him off guard. Take that for what it's worth.
That sucks if true,… oh well

I don’t understand this. It’s been incredibly clear it was going to be Carr or Sayin in 2024 for over 6 months at this point. Why did it matter if one of them committed before he did?

Exactly. That’s why this is either bs like we are used to seeing in the media on this kid, or he’s a very sensitive kid and can’t understand that CJ is in a different class. If he really backed off ND over a ‘24 kid, that makes him look extremely sus, or means he wanted a reason not to come to ND. The staff bent over backward for that kid.

Based on what I know from being in the hockey/scouting world. I think DM is soft mentally. Just my opinion, and I could very well be wrong, but I've seen similar things.

Sucks to hear but not surprising.

Otha Moore botched this recruitment for his son. There is no amount of future puff pieces that will convince me otherwise.

Really too bad.

His father got Greedy. It's becoming more and more apparent it was all about the money. Which most people already knew that,.

Didn't Dante say he'd take all of his OV's and then make a decision? If so, then he appears to be doing exactly what he said.

I think the subtext is that the staff wants him to reclass to ‘23 and that Carr is likely to do that, which in turn eliminates Dante’s spot.

Our guy Tom Loy getting lit up on the 247 board lol.

People want to know why the Moore's wouldn't ever let him make a CB prediction, but now Wiltfong was allowed to put one in, and if he regrets letting the Moore's dictate so much of his reporting on the recruitment.

I cannot wait for his 'behind the scenes' recruiting piece on the '23 class.
There's a few people here that this all could apply to as well who really stood up for Loy's silent CB's or whatever the hell he was calling them.

Im “few people” I assume and I’ll maintain it wasn’t clickbait, yes. Especially considering nearly everyone in all ND media and national ended up thinking the exact same thing.

and we’ve all already learned the reason right? Moore gave an indication he was going to commit not soon after. No CB submitted to not spoil the announcement. What Dante did or didn’t do next is the real story. The lack of original CB seems rather self explanatory at this point.

But didn’t the reclassify option only come into play once Dante started to fade and extend his visits and timeline (around a month before CJ committed)?

I may be wrong, but my understanding is CJ may reclassify because Dante was already starting to fade. He was going to commit regardless (or Sayin) and the Moore’s knew those were the 2024 guys already. So I’m just lost on how CJ reclassifying would make Dante move on, when reclassifying is only a discussion because Dante already moved on. It’s the chicken and the egg lol.

Edit: Unless Lax is giving us a hint that CJ committed in part because reclassifying was part of the deal beforehand.

I don’t pretend to be all knowing or have any inside knowledge, just a gut feeling after sifting though all the noise. It is beginning to sound like he was rather put off by Carr committing. The reclassifying bologna is simply rumor at this point and if anything, only because Dante isn’t coming. A quite plausible answer here, after hearing what the insiders have had to say, is he didn’t like that ND took Carr. That is not a good sign for his team spirit or mental game, imo. I hate to say it, but if that’s why, and based on the fact that out of the past 30 or so 5 star pro style QBs, there have only been like 5 great ones (and that’s being generous), I’m not sure I’d confidently place Moore in that group of highest likely to succeed. I think the odds of him being great are already around 5%, just based on the high level of bust. Not going to do himself any favors by getting upset or not being in it for the right reasons. Wish him well, but I can’t wait until he commits elsewhere, we get Carr for ‘23, and start talking ‘24 QBs. I don’t want anyone that divides a locker room, regardless of possible upside.

I don't claim to know anything either but if Dante had committed in, say, April, I doubt any of this would have been an issue. He'd be our guy for '23. Carr could then decide about '24. Instead here we are.
I'll make no predictions of how he'll be as a college quarterback but assuming he and Notre Dame are done, I do hope it's at Oregon so I never really have to watch or think about him ever again and maybe he can beat USC a time or two.

Exactly what I was thinking. Oregon is like fading into the mist for me. Like you were never there. Who knows, he could be great there, but it’ll likely have 0 impact on us or our on the field success given our insane recruiting class(es) and far tougher schedule. Oregon gets nearly 0 viewership or exposure in the Midwest where I’m from. I think they have games sometimes at like 11PM that I certainly don’t watch. I’m guessing that’s the same in the south and east coast. So, he’ll likely fly under the radar. I won’t even know if he’s good unless espn shows highlights.

Is Michigan recruiting anyone else at QB? I would love to see a situation where Johnson picks OR, this kid picks A&M, and Michigan takes someone else. Then what? LSU?

Not surprised. A&M fans and insiders were saying that there wasn't any traction after his visit.

Johnson is going to KSU and Moore will likely be a ND-Oregon battle.

I, likewise, am not going to pretend to know for certain what is going on here. But the Carr reclassifying thing was actually brought up on 247 way before he committed to ND.
