I don’t think they aggressively pursued many kids to visit this weekend. At the same time, I think you’d have expected some more, from the Midwest specifically. Ausberry is a legit blue chip and it sounds they mutually agreed a future date was best. Washington being confirmed in time was in question and no DC yet. At play is also they want certain kids using their OVs in the spring and ND is usually confident if they lay out the red carpet on those they can win. If you get a kid on campus in January at a non-focused group weekend, you possibly take yourself out of a OV “because I already went there”. The last part, is the kids that were meant to get the focus this weekend was if any 2022s would be using their OVs. That of course didn’t happen but that in theory was supposed to be part of this weekend. In the end, I think it was smaller than you’d like but it was never supposed to be as big as some may complain.
Given the lovely weather in late January in South Bend, the lack of anything going on, and the fact that the '22 class is completely buttoned up, why are they having this big recruiting weekend right now at all?
