He's not looking at Auburn is he? It's not that kind of "obligation," I hope.

The 7v7 is 100 miles from College Station so don't be surprised if he unofficials to Texas A&M then imo

That stinks.
There was a thought that he was coming to ND that weekend to announce in front of all the other recruits & commits.
Guess not.

You would think if Moore was silently committed like some think he would want to be at ND recruiting his future teammates during the biggest recruiting week for ND.
yeah doesnt make sense for a 5-star QB to be a silent commit, i would think you would announce in order to recruit talent around you.

To be fair we seem to be doing pretty well in the WR department right now without Moore being publicly committed. Unless you think Carnell Tate is really coming here I'm not sure how big a difference it makes at this point.

"We have to get our No. 1 target. It's imperative to us… The 2023 class will bring a championship to Notre Dame. There’s only 1 guy at the QB position for us. We're going to do whatever we can to make sure he comes to Notre Dame.”

according to most of the beat/recruiting reports Moore isn't a huge Rah-Rah guy, not the type that would build rapport with other recruits etc. CJ Carr on the other hand is described as such

Can we strike a futures deal with OSU for a future disgruntled 5 star back-up? Maybe take him out on loan?
Even if Buchner does turn out to be a player, ND's QB depth chart after this upcoming season is gonna be *scary* bad if they strike out in 2022.
  1. Buchner
  2. Angeli (who ... well, opinions differ on him)
  3. Tommy didn't recruit anyone else in 2022, so I guess Powlus?

This assumes we don't land Moore? Cause a depth chart of:
Buchner
Moore
Angeli
Powlus

Sounds pretty freaking awesome to me.

KSU's scenario also seems to assume that Pyne is transferring
Right. I don't see why Drew would stick around for 2023 if he already has his degree and has no chance of starting.

He doesn't have an NFL future. If I were advising him, I'd certainly tell him to seek out a chance to play.

The argument for staying would be Pyne still has a role this year, maybe Buchner gets hurt. Therefore he would stay next year to be part of a Natty contender and know he could be called upon, similar to Rees staying

That's certainly the argument the ND staff would make. I'm not sure if that's the best one for *him*, however.

If you believe he’s not a NFL player, wouldn’t the best choice be to work towards a legitimate graduate degree at ND then instead of spending one year making a purely football decision at a likely inferior school?

If he has his ND degree I wouldn't fault him for going to the MAC and playing one last season of the game he's given his life to. Of course, I hope that is not the case for depth purposes.

I certainly wouldn’t either, and I’ve actually said in the past a Pyne transfer this year wouldn’t have been that out of the realm of possibility. On the flip side now for this debate, I don’t think it’s that out of the realm he would just stay for 2023. There is certainly valid reasons both ways

He'd actually have two years to play and start if he left after the 2022 season. He's only a Redshirt Sophomore.

And ND's graduate programs are very good, but they're not ND's undergraduate programs. For instance, its undergrad business school is Top 10 caliber, while its grad program is more like 25-30. Undergrad? He made the right call with ND, but he could get a very good graduate education at a number of programs.

What ND could offer him are maybes. Maybe Tyler gets hurt and you get to play. Maybe we win a national title and you get to see it from the sidelines. I know *personally*, I only get one more shot at this, and ND already told me I couldn't start for them, so I'd want to take my degree and have some fun with the little time I have left playing the game.

And like, honestly? If it plays out like it looks like it will and Tyler get the nod, I'd be keenly aware that they would only be really pushing for me to return if they struck out in QB recruiting for 2022.

I think he has 4 years of eligibility left right now. 2020 didn't count because of Covid, and, despite the weekly calls on the message boards for him to play in 2021, I don't think he played in 4 games. I think he actually has more eligibility left that Buchner, in a weird twist of fate. He would be crazy not to get his degree, but he may have it by the end of next spring.

They're not going to completely strike out in '22. If Moore doesn't pan out, they will go find someone. Probably a three-star Captain Intangibles currently committed elsewhere.
Who knows perhaps that person will even turn out to be the winningest quarterback in Notre Dame history, or at least a future offensive coordinator.
