'23 MI QB Dante Moore (Greek Spaghetti Transfer)

[Te'o4Heisman]

But that's the staffs fault when they still had options and decided to go all in on Moore.

I dont disagree with you, but thats a completely different point than the train of thought that Moore is now somehow unnecessary.

I also 100% agree. If you want to win the big games you need a top 100 QB every year.

On

Funny he named four schools & none of them were Michigan.

that’s the best case scenario at this poijt. We get Carr. Michigan gets nobody. BK doesn’t get Moore.possibly reclass and a good ‘24 kid.

 

[Irish#1]

Could somebody please post something about Moore (fact or opinion) that hasn't been posted three or four times already.

 

[irishnd31]

Reminds me of my first wife. And now I will hide so Brownerandfry doesn’t attack me for divorce.

LOL. As a fellow divorced person, I will stand with you. We can form our own little group of IE sinners.

Nobody knows what went on behind the scenes. To me, it seems like there are three parties involved in this. ND, the Moore family, and potentially CJ Carr. It would seem logical to conclude that ND would want Moore to join. This is a no brainer. 4.0 kid, special talent, great kid. Pursue him hard. From the Moore family side, ND is still unquestionably the best option for them. Of course, the 4 for 40 benefits that we all know, but the potential NIL from being a stud QB at ND, and the path for playing time is much clearer than other schools. Furthermore, Dante is an ND kid. ND kids are just a cut above when talking to them vs. Other teams. The only thing I could see making this a situation where Dante is looking elsewhere is CJ. Either Dante or CJ perhaps doesn't want the other there for some reason. Obviously, the path to the field is easier without the other one. Maybe either CJ said, I will commit, but no Dante, or Dante said, now that CJ is on board, I will look elsewhere. If it is the first scenario, ok. CJ looks like a stud and is fully invested...we move on. If it is the second scenario, I would imagine after the Moores get over the shock of ND being proactive and signing another stud, they will still realize ND is the best option for them. How could they not? So we shall see. I honestly think the only reason ND doesn't end up with Dante, is if they promised CJ they wouldn't go after a 5* '23 QB. Just my speculation.

This is unsubstantiated, but I’ve heard through the back channels that Moore prefers Popeye’s to Raising Cane’s.

Damn
I want him even moore

While not trying to irritate the board, I am hoping that we sign Dante Moore BUT IF WE DON'T, that he signs with Coach Kelly.

Why? Because I believe that Dante can be an exceptional quarterback and that he could help LSU beat Alabama. In my opinion, ANY DEFEATS which can be delivered to Alabama (by anyone) are good for NCAA football. If LSU, GA, even A&M can defeat Alabama, giving them two or more defeats per year, it might ultimately break Alabama's dominance on the stockpiling of talent. It is my opinion that Alabama has diminished the fan value of NCAA football for many years. It is not good for anything to have even talented amateurs always playing for second place. Dabo Swinney was great in this sense for football. LSU has recently proved that they can also do this.

He prefers "Pope yes"? Dante to ND confirmed.

He did Tweet a duck. I think it was our media that made this into something. Driskell (Homer Simpson) led everyone to believe he was a ND lock. I’ve found 0 primary sources that say Dante was ever a ND lean. Just secondary. I view ND NIL as the big upside, similar to NFL success rather than 1st round pick money. Like I said earlier, ND greats are still earning money from the bookstore merchandise and many other ways. If you’re great, you’re set for life. You can get Golden Tate socks. You have to earn it, but there is no bigger fan base ready to spend money if you do. I like kids that bring their lunch pail. If you’re seeking quick cash, are you be seeking long term success? If that’s the case, you might not be seeking the NFL. If you’re not seeking the NFL, you might not be seeking AA. If you’re not seeking AA, you might not be seeking a starting role. The potential pay day from ND is legit. You have to work at it. If you don’t want to work, ND isn’t a good fit academically or athletically.

 

[du Lac]

You are nuts if you think Dante is now unnecessary. An elite QB is NECESSARY in just about every recruiting class.

Carr like any HS QB is not a sure thing to become an elite college QB, and no way you can go Angeli, skip, then a miss on Carr if that were to happen and basically not uave anything else on tap…not if you want to win chanpionships.

It is ALWAYS take all the elite QBs you can and play the odds that one becomes who yoi hope he will. This mindset is similar to get dumped by the hot girl then telling everybody its ok you didnt like her anyhow.

Not if Carr reclassifies. You don’t take two 5 star QBs in the same class silly goose.

As any true leader of men

I really hope this is the way. Carr and then f/u that up with hopefully Sayin or another high 4* + .

 

[du Lac]

I really hope this is the way. Carr and then f/u that up with hopefully Sayin or another high 4* + .

To me, you don’t take all the summer classes and online classes necessary to reclassify “just in case”. That sounds insane. Regardless of the PC answer, my gut says Carr is ‘23 all the way. But I’m just some dummy on a message board so I don’t have a clue what I’m talking about. I’m with you, I hope so.

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

Yeah, I hope so too.

I expected we would have clarity by now on what's happening with 2023. Since ND seemingly hasn't expanded the board I'm guessing it's either Moore or a reclassified Carr.

 

[stlnd01]

Yeah, I hope so too.

Would be helpful to get a verdict one way or the other on Moore soon, b/c yeah time to start shopping for other ‘23s (even if just as a backup in case Carr reclassifying doesn’t work).

Isn’t Rashada announcing this weekend? He’s kind of the last major domino left standing and sounds like A&M or Oregon are possible destinations?

Sounds like Florida may have jumped into the lead for Ra$hada.

I agree that he looks like he will be reclassifying. I also think ND will not move on from Moore just yet as they probably want to see if this 17 year old kid (even one who seems like he has his shit together like Carr) will actually crank out summer and online classes before they move on completely from Moore or anyone else on the 2023 board. Without knowing anything, my guess would be we have actual clarity on the classification as well as if we have pursued or have moved on from Moore by the end of the summer.

We don't know what conversations the staff is having with other prospects or Moore, let alone Carr reclassify. Everyone needs to just pump the brakes here.

Rinse. repeat.......At least OMM came through with something original.

Cringe

 

[notredomer23]

There is actually a pretty decent update from Loy. The short of it is ND is still recruiting him. Dante reached out to ND a few days later to see where things stood. ND hasn’t offered anyone else. Some still likely depends on CJ reclassification which hopefully is decided soon. But the key takeaway is they are not offering other QBs and are going to push for Moore if any 2023 QB

Cringe

I think I would cringe more if he committed. QB is a leader position. Once he commits this boards mood will change to transfer portal rumors.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

So Wiltfong is his whiparound said that Oregon is now "in the best position to land" Moore now. This recruitment has been amazing.

I actually think the KEY TAKEAWAY from that, is that DANTE reached out to NOTRE DAME, to see where things stood......

 

[ColinKSU]

Once they knew they had Carr they probably didn't care much at that point. Buchner should work out fine for the next two years in theory, and if not we should do well with either Pyne or Angeli if the OL is going to be improved and the WR talent upgraded. Moore at this point isn't really necessary. I'm sure they'd still take him if he wants in. Even if we were supposedly leading I'm sure they started to question the timetable and the NIL talk, so rather than letting him keep all the leverage they decided to take an insurance policy. A very good insurance policy.

Even if it isn’t Dante, it is *critically* important that they get a QB in 2023. It’s a roster management failure to think otherwise.
