My only guess as to why he may be not as drawn in by A&M is A&M offered a handful of other QBs before him after Holstein decommitted. That or just wanting to get away from home school, not for everyone (Carr).

Carr is also committed but they had a 5 star last year.
A&M giving off serious "we've always got a fallback in Novosad" vibes. Maybe he doesn't appreciate that. Still, I think this is going to be a tough pull. Only reason I can figure we haven't publicly gone after others, like Minchey is because they're committed elsewhere. I certainly hope we're talking with them.

Indiana has the largest deer in the nation from what I’ve heard.

Freeman seems like a deer hunter. Right? To me he gives off major deer hunter vibes.
If Freeman is a deer hunter my man crush has only gotten bigger. Could also take him to some land in Ohio and Illinois. This is the Mecca of whitetail deer.

whos got 100 acres of timber ground in Indiana? This kid loves to whitetail deer hunt and fish. Someone take him out to sticks and let him hunt shoot some monsters! Much bigger deer in the midwest then Texas.
I have these things of which you speak and am more than willing if he brings along a few coeds who enjoy getting eye humped by bald fat middle aged men.

Didn't they also offer Minchey? If Rees is still offering only one QB at a time...WTH???
Not publicly.
They might have, but we wouldn’t know unless he announced it.
They might have and both sides want to keep it quiet.
Only the kid can publicly release his offers. ND can’t say a word about a recruit publicly until he signs.

Spindler can take him home with him

- I would love it if the kid came . . .
- He might really be a great fit...
- Freeman may be changing the vibe...

BUT based on (1) recent history and (2) how he comes across in interviews (including the admittedly goofy IPC interview), I would give him a 5% of coming to Notre Dame. Unless he was just playing to his audience, the kid seems like WAY too much like a normal bro. All of our QBs sound like sportscasters, coach's sons, 35 year olds, or at least motivational coaches. Austin does not. He sounds like a 17 year old. Not saying that is a bad thing, but history tends to repeat itself.

We haven't gotten a normal bro QB since Everett Golson.

When, and I mean when this kid commits, I'm going after the " ND/Rees/Freeman fudged QB recruiting in 23" crowd. JK kind of....

Didn't Loy say that if ND gets him on campus, that he believes he will be ND?

Also going to visit TAMU and Baylor again. Have to think it's between us and TAMU.

That was when he thought ND may be his only visit.

ND Tuesday, Baylor Friday and A&M maybe on Saturday. Gotta like NDs chances more if that A&M visit gets scratched
I think Baylor is much more of a threat than A&M even if he goes to College Station.

I think the Rees skeptics would be happy to eat crow. It’s not that everyone hates him, just a lot are doubting him. I’m in the I like you as an OC, but I’m not yet sold on you as an elite recruiter crowd. I have a hard time believing we have a legitimate chance unless he’s the kid of kid that gets on campus and can’t let that feeling go. It’s too late in the game make up all the ground on the lost relationship.
