Very tempted, I'd feel kind of ridiculous having all 3 but I am definitely tempted to try it out. To anybody that doesn't have a subscription to any this would be a great time to give one a shot. You will not get a better deal or at least I've never seen one.

In general, I like supporting ISD because it is an independent small business and I respect the guys that run it. Sure, like any premium site, you can just wait to get your info via word of mouth... and you can listen to their podcasts for free... but I think they really earn their couple bucks a month that I pay in subscription.

Bit the bullet and took advantage of the great deal. Just from my initial impression, my wife is going to hate that site.

ISD is my favorite site for ND info. Christian is always spot on. I could do without Mike Frank but I really like ISD. If you want just ND recruiting info and stuff I would go with ISD

The main reason I left ISD two years ago was Mike Frank. Very annoying and too much debbie downer all the time. Was a member of his site for 8 years or so and just could not take it any longer. Been very happy with making the switch to 247 as Steve Wiltfong is the best in the business.

Cliff notes:

- Sarkisian being hired will have a much bigger impact on ND recruiting than Martin leaving, specifically with JuJu

- We seem almost completely locked in to playing Boise State, either in the Poinsetta or the San Diego bowl

- They expect Tristen Hoge to join the class this weekend

- They also expect Luatua to finally announce on his Bday, and that he is being recruited as a TE only. The staff evaluated him at OLB as well as TE, like they do with most big skill, but he is basically locked in at TE.

- McKenzie is taking his test this weekend, so once those results are in we will get clarity on whether or not he will be in the class.

- WR recruiting --> Erik Brown is not coming to ND, they expect Lazard not to flip, Sousa obviously committed to UF, Nelson is visiting and we'll see if ND takes his committment, and a name to keep an eye on is CA WR Donovan Walker (would commit on the spot)

- ND is visiting Holley today. Should decide if we are in it going forward or not.

As in Sarkisian (and JuJu's uncle, right?) makes it more likely JuJu picks USC?

Thanks Ironman.

To add...
-Nelson very solid, will be back in town for banquet. Hiestand is the freaking man.
-Interesting tidbit on the financial aid agreements that schools are allowed to offer EEs as early as October now. Doesn't lock kid into school, does lock school into kid. Allows for the removal of contact restrictions after it's signed. Here's the kicker... as a recruit, you can sign as many as you want... which is what Dalvin Cook did. So now it's complete open season on him, even during dead periods, for every school he signed with...

not busy at the moment so i figured I'll do my part..

-ISD doesn't think the loss of Martin and Diaco will have much effect on the recruiting class. Diaco never enjoyed recruiting so it shouldn't have a big impact. Loss of Elston would be somewhat impactful, but in the end, most likely minimal.

-Yeargin still seems to be solid but who really knows.

-As far as weekend visitors go, ISD sees at least 2 of the 3 uncommitted targets signing in Feb. All three could committ this weekend or none. I think Sykes pops and we wait on the other 2. Just my opinion.

-Sykes is friends with Morgan, as previously mentioned, and really likes the idea of them playing together on the next level. In the end, I think they do.

-Watkins working hard on Hendrix. Look for him to commit to a school by the end of December.

-We would be in the race for Marcus Griffin down the line if we show renewed interest sometime soon.

-Erik Brown is solid to Cal and is shutting it down.

Can you imagine if we get a defensive coaching hire equivalent to Harry Hiestand?

Any Intel guess at the replacement coaches? I thought one of their tweets teased that with the Intel?
