ND moving on per Loy
‘24 CA WR Jason Robinson (Offer)
- Thread starter Dale
- Start date
So the staff is content on going into 2024 banking on Colzie, Thomas, Merriweather, the 4 freshman coming in, and then these 3 recruits. That gives us 10 WR's. I find it highly unlikely that we either A. lose someone to the portal, someone decommits, or someone enters the draft.

Tyree is the wildcard that youre not including. His NFL future is at wide receiver, and he has a fifth year available. Maybe he transfers, maybe he stays.
To add, ND can use the portal if they need. Stuckey’s own words were that he is content with having 10 WRs. Also, means we can save the scholarship for other positions in this class, and potentially go after three next year.
It’s really not a huge deal. ND also utilizes TEs in the slot, and we have some good flex TEs on the roster in future (Staes, incoming Larsen and potentially Carter Nelson).

And they could reconsider another WR if one blows up during his senior yr

Why not, I'm with Jamie U on this one. Yes he is dynamic and a talent, but he is also a slot only, and a small slot at that. While I would take him if he wanted to come, I am ok with other options. ND likes to move guys in and out of all 3 spots. From my understanding he is pretty limited in where he can play.

Allow me to retort.
He's 150lbs at present. That's a long ways from making an impact. He's from long beach poly. He was in campus for several days with the staff, so they had a chance to be around him, for better or worse.
Im good with the three they have and like others have stated, if another prospect balls out, you reevaluate your situation.

All troll, no substance
Rather have Carter Nelson or Reddell.
Small slots, can be nice - but they can also be Davonte Neal - CJ Sanders
Give me athletic TE freaks

You need a decent sized room of WR, CB, LB for guys who can help on special teams. These are the most drafted positions in the NFL. The numbers usually work themselves out and the unpredictability of the portal coupled with the way ND intends to use it means they're going to have to build through recruiting.
If they can take four in this 2024 class that they really like I am all for that, but if you get three and can't find the fourth so be it. There are a few other guys on the board currently I hope they keep after and they can surely find others between now and December.

Could be. The staff certainly picked up on something that gave them a reason to move on from him.

I'd take the fourth as a bird in hand. Never know what will happen with the portal, NIL decommits, etc. Plus the fact that Canion said he might take OVs. Just never know.

I like this move for him. Pick the school, a good one at that, and not the coach.
You are correct Sir.
Alcohol, in general, thins your blood.
So an oz. of Scotch before a run would be beneficial, if you have the discipline to stop there.
I know everyone will say that O’Leary fudge play a roll, Tae wanted ND regardless.
But a long time ago it was obvious that Tae wasn’t an option.
So O’Leary had to both encourage him to keep working & also stay in contact with him to keep ND as an option.
If O’Leary told Tae to eff off, this doesn’t happen. He had to be 100% engaged with him to make any of this a reality.
