Him and Rodney Dunham. Now we gotta land texas DT. Keep recruiting the USC poly kid, Quinn, Blade, Noah Clark and Golden

Priority would be Hola, Clark, Blade and Golden, as I think those guys are interior DL in college. Need to land at least 2 of them, preferably three. But if Quinn wanted to come aboard, I wouldn't object to that either. Can never have too many edge rushers.

Love this pick up!! Welcome to the Irish family.

Make it a North Carolina duo on 4/10 with Dunham.

Get Noah Clark on board, make it a trio.

Fantastic pick up!

Irish Envy feels you Ebenezer ☘️

I do like that line

 

[IAIrish]

The 1st of what could be an incredible defensive line class, with North Carolina providing some of the state's most talented guys...

Absolute statement of intent that Belichek will feel.

Does our ACC presence help us in these states now?

Does our ACC presence help us in these states now?

Finally, 10+ years later it's paying off

No, they like UA now

 

[Katzenboyer]

We should fire Al Washington

Great get for the moment

Great get for the moment

Getting out spent was a 2023 problem. We held onto all of our commits last year.

 

[BobbyMac]

Scrooge, I feel ya.

 

[OKCDomer23]

This kid has superstar potential. Very long arms, quick, great initial step and strong closing speed. He's put up impressive stats already and competes in track and field. Hard to find guys that bring this kind of talent to a super important position. Love the commitment.

Surprised this wasn't posted. The hit rate on landing prospects who say ND first is astronomical.

Can you send this to the all the ND talking heads so they pronounce his name correctly? Just watched the commit video Always Irish, Irish Breakdown, and Singer did...and they all butchered his name. Although Vince was the closest...

Question for recruit heads: I know he’s a solid 4 star, but kind of surprised he’s not higher rated by recruiting services. Do you see a big jump for him?

 

[Irishdwarte]

I’m sure Mike Frank will pronounce it correctly on Monday’s show. He’s a wordsmith when it comes to pronouncing names correctly. Listening to him try to pronounce Burress is like nails on a chalkboard. The dude’s father played in the NFL for a number of years and he still can’t get it right.

Listened to a bit of Eric Hansen's conversation with Lemming last night, Lemming didn't consider him a 5* based on lack of size.

He was sort of a late bloomer in that his best offer was Duke until January, where in a span of 3 weeks, he received offers from ND, OSU, Bama, UGA, PSU, Miami, and FSU. After those offers came in, the recruiting sites either had him unranked or gave him a placeholder ranking, I suspect this was due to the offers he received and the fact that they didn't watch his film. He was initially #337 (placeholder) on the 247 composite and a month later they bumped him up to #152. He's very talented and has a very high ceiling, but the word is that he's raw. If he continues to improve and has a great Senior season, I could see him getting into the top 50.

Lack of size? Lemming is gonna have to explain that one. Dude is 6'4 220 and has the frame to easily get up to 250. Dude isn't an inside tackle, he's a vyper.

220 is generous and he played last year at like 190-195
