'26 PA DB Joey O'Brien (Notre Dame Verbal)

[Irish Man3]

This trip to Eugene is the one that scares me the most

Some visit changes.

OSU now longer getting an OV, which makes sense since they didn't make his Top 6. OSU had their visit set for the final OV weekend (June 20), but that is now being swooped up by ND. O'Brien is longer taking that weird midweek visit that he had planned.

I'll add, that ND's biggest perceived threat, PSU, is getting the first OV on May 16-18

Sorry, is it still just that final OV weekend?

Yes, ND gets the last visit on the June 20th weekend.

Always best to be last. Visit is fresher in the kids minds and the staff can address anything the other schools discussed.

Penn State’s is early. Which is interesting

 

[Quinn37]

ON3 had a new rankings update and he’s the #8 safety. I haven’t watched film on every safety in the country but I find it hard to believe this kid isn’t in the top 3. Definitely an elite talent.

Unless someone wows him on an official and he commits without taking all his visits.

Survive the PSU visit without a commitment, and MFMF and MMFM will close this shit out.

Join the pipeline, kid

It’s amazing how quickly the safety room has been turned into a strength.

Our whole secondary. That was such a problem area for such a long time. It's kind of remarkable tbh

Kid is a legit top 40 player and 5* Safety

Oregon in a great spot with touted safety Joey O'Brien following weekend visit

Your words are correct. ND’s safety room was turned into a strength overnight when Gilman and Eliot took over in 2018.

That's not encouraging, especially the last line. UO has a lot of glitz to blow away the kids, and Lanning is an enthusiastic recruiter. This will be a dog fight until the end.

 

[CanadalovesND]

If some of you take comfort in having the last visit, then you'll feel a little at ease with O'Brien.

Oregon is flashy. Most that visit are going to be enthusiastic afterwards.

ND has the longest standing relationship. They've put in a lot of work. I wouldn't feel that worried just yet.

I would agree I think Oregon is our biggest challenge

This was his official to Eugene, if 247 is correct. One would expect Mickens and crew to go in home with him shortly to prevent any type of knee jerk commitment.
Survive recency bias and let the shine wear off.

 

[CanadalovesND]

Now a five-star on 24/7.

 

[NDPhilly]

If he actually chooses Oregon over us or PSU I’d be truly shocked.

 

[Dale]

Doesn’t seem like his PSU OV moved the needle a ton. Perception is still ND or PSU with Oregon third. Positive development that it wasn’t a PSU surge.

James Franklin has to be top 3 lamest coaches to play for. Not surprised.

Dale, where did you see this or hear this?

much like BK if i was running recruiting there i'd keep recruits away from Franklin as much as possible

 

[Dale]

Dale, where did you see this or hear this?

More of what I haven’t seen. Nothing huge from PSU site, like with Khary Adams who’s seen CBs and PSU as leader is being blasted eveywhere. Thomas and Singer seem to think it’s still PSU/ND. So the lack of change is the update.

Since I have already outed you today as Driscoll, was it you, someone on here or one of the podcasters that said that JOB seems to come out of the visits with that school surging, only to go to the next one and then that school surges? I thought I heard that after Oregon visit, and the person said it bodes well for ND if that trend continues.

So much for Oregon? Did the visit high wear off that quick? Did O'Brien come to realize that Lanning's ask for a pool dive together was something he didn't want to do?
