I get the feeling Moore is telling ND hes 100% Irish but he also wants to take advantage of all of his OVs and enjoy the free food and swag.

Is this some new thing the kids do? Sounds crazy. Like he might be the first kid EVER to try such a stunt.

(In Lindsey Graham Gone with the Wind voice) I do declare I am shocked and appalled, Blazers46.

His dad gave the first post visit interview to On3. Nothing groundbreaking, his dad did do a bit of a can’t confirm or deny on future visits elsewhere. Said Dante is scheduling them not him but ND would receive a OV for sure

From Loy's follow up comments/posts, it seems like the Moore camp has given every indication that he's coming to ND. I don't know if you want to call that a silent commitment or extreme reassurance that it will eventually happen but that is the sense I get. Loy seems very measured in his posts and reassured in his confidence. You can take that FWIW because his confidence usually comes from the staff/prospects confidence, and we know that can be fleeting at times. If I was a betting man, I'd probably place odds on this as brand building, suspense building for an announcement, etc. Or at least how it's being billed to the staff. The problem though is in that process it can lead somewhere, even if it's not intended too.

And so, I come out on this the same on this as I did 1-2 months ago. It's unnecessary risk. And, when I say that it's because I don't view there as a gap of any sort between Vizzina and Moore. If the staff feels that Moore is a significantly better player than Vizzina, maybe that is how they get to this decision. Again, since I do not, I'd get Vizzina on campus asap and make this a race for one spot. Though that doesn't seem even remotely likely at this time.
Sampson, Loy, Singer, and co seem way too confident for this to be anything but the Moore family wanting to keep a lid on it. I get the feeling he came on campus, shot a bunch of stuff and sent it to his guy to put together a commitment video that will drop in a week or two. But we will find out this weekend if he does visit somewhere.

I just hope ND doesn't get Will Shipley'd again.

As post 1,065 says that the rules need to change, I agree.

and this is why i really do want to try and wait another week/two weeks to see if the visits occur and any reports after. Too many possibilities still.


I would hope mr silent CB doesnt start waffling now. I certainly wouldnt expect the staff or Loy to feel any different post visit than they did pre, and i certainly hope its all well placed confidence.

With that said it moves me back to your second paragraph which i somewhat mentioned above. I think we should have let Vizzina come on campus when he was scheduled. Is it the staff views Moore as significantly better than Vizzina or did something happen with ND/Moore as that visit approached.

from the outside it appears we still can get caught with our pants down. To clay devils advocate to the plausible, "visit other schools in order to build drama for a commitment", nothing builds more drama than the appears to be favorite still recruiting other QBs. I dont see why one party could make a promise and keep visiting (if he does) but the other couldnt, especially, if theres a clear line of communication on who gets precedence.
This is still complete conjecture that ND was the reason CV canceled his visit. Maybe he asked if his offer was commutable and they were honest with him and that’s when he switched it to Ole Miss? Just seems odd to me that everyone is just assuming ND canceled.

Have you heard of another visit rescheduled or any additional communication?

That would really be interesting with Bowen and Keeley out visiting others
“Can’t” or “won’t”? I highly doubt ND is telling Moore he “can’t” take visits after he commits. Like you said look at Keeley and Bowen.

Rather, Moore seems like he wants to commit and, when he does, be done with it all. In other words he “won’t” take visits after he commits. But he’s going to look around first and be sure. I respect that.

They could be a little more strict with the QB of our class maybe?

So what? If ND tells CV his offer is non commitable and CV moved on and canceled his visit why is he gonna reschedule?

VIP from Allen Trieu.


"He is going to take some officials, check out some other places, some places that we haven't been maybe," he said. "There's no time rush. Everyone wants us to rush rush choose choose, but he's taking his time. He doesn’t want to be the kid to pull a de-commit. Once we’re in, we’re in, and he will enroll in January wherever we go."

Color me disappointed. I thought this would be over within a day or two of this visit.

I worry how Nico’s price tag and commitment effects this recruitment.

If there is genuine interest in Oregon from Moore you know they will be willing to pay in NIL.

The best part of Moore potentially committing is that he could put all NIL doubts about ND to rest forever.

The starting QB at ND will make a killing in NIL. The university can't guarantee him anything, but it is a slam dunk that he will make a pretty penny. If Moore can practically show the world how much he can make, all of a sudden the entire conversation changes.

But why? Not a single person on the ND beat ever said or implied a commitment was happening on or near the visit.

1st time poster on this forum. Longtime lurker. I believe Moore will be public to ND by mid-April. But I also think they are trying to put some intrigue and suspense into his moment. I've heard 3 or 4 podcast hosts slip and reference Dante like he's already a part of the 2023 class.
Everybody needs to relax. He's 100% aware of his linchpin status.

Welcome!


I agree with you. All the best beat writers and prognosticators say exactly what you're saying.

If it doesn't happen... it would be a shock. But let's not pretend we're in a bad way with QBs right now.

TB is a stud. Hes gonna be for a couple years. We'll be fine either way.
