Think about how crazy it will be if Freeman out recruits Kelly at LSU his first full season at a school that supposedly can't recruit top talent because of the academic restrictions. :love:

Top to bottom, he's already outrecruited all of Kelly's 10-11 classes while at ND. Go find me one class that beats this, I don't even know if it's close now. More top 100 players, more top 200 players, more top 300 players and the most complete class I've seen....been following recruiting since a few years before Manti chose ND.

I know that's not super long in terms of ND fandom but long enough to see how incredible this class is. Last years class had a lot of early contributors which bodes well for how this talent dovetails and augments the roster.

HIllman isn't an add-in, he's a potential top 5 player when all of their careers have been written.

I've been following recruiting since Holtz and when Blue and Gold was a magazine not an internet site. Not even looking at the stars, this is the fastest class brought in since Holtz. There is no comparison. It's a night and day difference. I am totally blown away. I just hope Freeman can coach because if he can we are looking at a run that could surpass Holtz and maybe even get us back to the Ara days.

Wow! I don't care where he plays on a regular basis offensive vs. defense, but fuck he is a Wildcat specialist inside the 5 yd. line!!! Damn!!!

His offensive clips are exciting and fine, but this man chooses violence on the defensive side of the ball. I hope he plays on that side to be honest. Safety/LB, whatever, I doesn't matter to me....wherever life, or growth, takes you. I can see Steve Atwater type hits as a safety or the JOK at LB.

Both I'd love. Think this is an "underrated" get for sure.

Part of it is also their contrasting qualities/styles of charisma and relatability as well. I’m not saying Kelly didn’t have his moments, but the guy often seemed to be overly businesslike in his pitches as opposed to Freeman being more expressive about why Notre Dame.

Hillman is legit!

Not just why ND, but from everything we've seen and heard from him, MF relates more to the personal side.

I'm gonna say it right now, I think Brandyn Hillman is going to be the best player from this class.

This is my opinion regardless of whether Peyton Bowen is or isn't in the class.

He just has that rare combination of insane work ethic, grind, mental fortitude and sheer god-given talent.

We forget the reason Bama, Georgia etc came after our commits is because Freeman is damn good at evaluating talent and he was truly early on many of them.

247 and On3 basically love him as an ATH and ESPN and Rivals probably haven’t found out he doesn’t play QB or exists yet. Could finish ranked above Hanafin.
