I don't think you "need" both in the transfer portal era where you're going to be abke to backfill your roster every yeat at a place like Notre Dame. That said, if ND takes 3 DT / NGs in this cycle you're certainly not going to hear me complain. If you can get 3 quality kids with high upside, you definitely take them.You need Parks and Folorunsho. I'd take 3 DT's this cycle.
In 2026 your 4-deep is likely...
Brewu-Onye
Hughes-Gray
Burgess-Mukam
Mullins-Dixon
In 2027 your 4-deep is likely....
Brewu-Gray
Burgess-Mukam OR Portal Addition
Golden-Dixon OR Portal Addition
Freshman-Hola
In the Portal era you can really only succession plan 2'ish years ahead, so ND is pretty set (even with normal transfer attrition) for the foreseeable future. The ability to augment through the Portal for plug-n-play additions is also enormous.
