Don't y'all fret none! MMFF is a man with a f---ing plan, always preparing for what might come next - I love this guy! Signing Day at Notre Dame won't ever be the same — and that's a good thing And yes, that plan definitely includes attacking the TP -- From the article: And a scouting staff, led by Matt Jansen, that’s been putting together a wish/priority list based on six months of scouting and research for the next transfer portal cycle, which starts on Monday... Choose hard my friends, choose hard!! Go Irish!!🍀🍀🍀

We really need to celebrate this as no one gave us a chance over the last 2 weeks with Madden...one heck of a finish...now let's get his and KVAs Polynesian LB buddy in the 26 class Talanoa Ili from CA...didnt see a profile on him, otherwise I would post my All Your Base meme in there as well lol

Thank you kind sir..those Polynesian last names...but not as bad as our Polish last names LOL
You guys should trade some consonants for their vowels…

I can’t even talk, my Slovenian name would be right there with you if it wasn’t for a confused guy on Ellis Island

How about a combo of KVA and Faraimo at LB? Does that move the needle for you or is there a pending movement of the goalposts.
It's a nice addition, will be interesting to see how they use Faraimo's versatility, love a LB that started off playing Safety for a few years. He shows the ability to play sideline to sideline at inside 'backer, man the outside or he can line up as an edge rusher in passing situations. ND might like him at the same position even though he has the skill level to play both inside/outside positions so ill be anxious to see how they utilize his skillset. Now, Is that exciting enough for you or do you need more Football viagra to get you going thru the day without silly commentary skipper!

Elton still weeps at your user name. You are not entertaining to anyone but yourself, rocket man.

Care to update your grade for LB?
B+ is the grade we still needed another LB (NOB, Nix or Mikhail) for a sure A. Sacca is a high upside player but played inconsistent as a LB learning the position from Safety this year. Koa is a very good athlete who flies to the ball and might outplay his ranking but right now he's a depth piece.

Faraimo: A with A+ potential
Sacca: B with B+ potential
Koa: C+ with B+ potential

This year does kind of undermine the narrative that Freeman is a super-recruiter.

It's a fine class (by ND standards), but not great. Here are my grades:

- QB: B (project with high upside and low downside)
- RB: B
- WR: C (huge need, lots of misses, Burress looks good)
- TE: A (they seem to always identify good TEs, so I'm assuming he's good)
- OT: A+ (best recruiting in a while)
- OG: B+ (didn't really need anyone, and I like Herron's athleticism)
- DT: B (good, but no one dominant or huge)
- DE: B+ (some clear upside, but no sure elite guy)
- LB: B+ (good, but needed another)
- CB: A (they seem to always identify good DBs, so I'm assuming they're good)
- S: A (they seem to always identify good DBs, so I'm assuming they're good)
- K: A (got lucky late)

Reminds me of Stanford recruiting during the Harbaugh era.
Spot on except i'd go B+ at S

Yet, here you are again...I see someone had their walls covered with Elton John posters as a tike (or maybe still do)😳😳
You have it all figured out, don't ya?
You remain in mommy's basement assessing recruits like you know a shit.
I'll stare at my Elton posters as they remind me what an absolute stain of shit you are as a "fan" of ND.

Peace "fan"

I watched Ko’o play this year and last year. He’s solid. Much better than a C+

Yeah you lost me at “it’s a nice addition”. He’s a fucking stud full stop. I’m sure it pained you to type anything that resembled a positive post for anything related to this team or class. You’re the last guy that could provide football Viagra for me there Gilligan.

Gotta wonder what @IrishLion might find out if he checked this IP address. Might it be an early burner for koondouche? It wreaks of that type of douchebaggery.

Well if you got "lost" at him being a nice addition to the class seems Gilligan would be more fitting for you fella.

B-/C+ is solid in my book and according to the Grade key I used as a reference. He has the tools and the quicks, but needs to add quite a bit of weight (208lbs) without losing too much of his speed. An asterisk in his ranking is his lack of competition in Hawaii.

This was my Grade reference:
A — Elite / Top 5 CFP caliber
B — Outstanding / Top 15 caliber
C — Solid / Borderline Top 25 caliber
D — Subpar / Not good enough
F — Disaster
