Two ways to look at it if he’s committing soon:

1) He isn’t choosing ND because he hasn’t visited in months while visiting elsewhere multiple times

2) Since he doesn’t have an OV to ND set, he is doing it during the fall as a commit

Answer: I’m full of shit on #2 & no way he is going to ND…

on the live LT announcement right now IB was just saying that Miami is throwing a ton of money his way and that it basically seems to be working. they wouldn't give numbers but talked like people in general would be shocked at how much money that they are offering kids and how the NCAA isn't doing a thing about it.

They might want to focus on getting a decent QB room w all of Ruiz’s NIL funds

But remember, IB would also have you believe it’s 100% Al Washington’s fault that Justin Scott wants that upfront cash from Miami because Al is the current target that Driskell is blaming for Notre Dame’s problems.

Driskells sources feel good.
Yeah, that’s not what he said at all…

He said the ONLY people he talks to he feel good about ND is the actual ND sources.

Then literally said ALL HIS OTHER SOURCES feel that ND is running at best 3rd, behind Miami & probably Michigan. And the sources from Miami, Michigan, Georgia all feel he is going to Miami.

He just gave Al Washington credit for getting Loghan Thomas.

It's incredible that there isn't a single ND booster who has said "you know what? Screw it. I'm gonna drop bags...I mean, contribute NIL money for recruits."

John Ruiz vs FUND

If we lose a St Ignatius 5 Star to The U it just shows how not ready for prime time the FUND and ND Administration is. ND has the fucking resources to go toe to toe w fucking Ruiz. GMAFB.

(Friendly reminder we got / held onto Sam Hartman and Antonio Carter bc of NIL. Proven transfers are a better use of money)

Would you rather have 1 year of proven Sam Hartman or a freshman 5 star QB? Considering the probability of a bust, its pretty close for me.

Both.

We're Notre Dame. There's no reason we shouldn't have both.

It was a joke.

Again, how has not 1 wealthy ND booster started dropping bags for recruits?

Should just put a McDonalds or Burgerking patch on our uniforms and let them buy our recruits if CFB is going semi-pro route.

If wealthy people buying recruits was the answer, then Harvard would be the 100 times straight National Champs. They distribute $2.1 billion a year from their nearly $60 billion endowment.
If they decided to distribute 2.2 instead of 2.1 (so that’s $100 million a year), imagine their team?

Wealthy people are smarter with their money than people on message boards.

This was essentially the decision Oregon made with Nix or Moore

ISD has continually stated this kid is a project and will take 2 to 3 years to contribute and they are pretty good at there scouting.. so it would be insane to pay this kid to ride the bench for two years... cause all sort of locker room issues.. save that money for instant impact guys like Asa or Rushing... IMO

I think they wanted both as they were obviously offering Moore a bag, but I think he just wanted to start as a Freshman, so he got the bag from someone (UCLA) that gave him a better opportunity to do that.
