Dillan Gibbons is a guy I don't think we talk enough about. He committed TWO years ago and didn't waiver once. He's already 6'4" 315 pounds. He has nasty, mauler offensive guard written all over him. I can definitely see him being a 3-4 year starter.

I think he's the most underrated guy in the class too. His film is scary. There are some real bullies coming in on the OL. 3-4 years is going to be tough though. It wouldn't surprise be if it's 2 but I think he'll have to go 5 years to do that. i do think he'll leap frog Parker. If Parker doesn't wait till the OC opens, I don't know when he plays. And there's talk that Hainsey might end up an OC because of his ability to be the OL's leader.

All I know is, they're so stocked right now that besides a few guys who are really interested in ND like OG Finn Dirstine and Bo Bauer's teammate, OG Fred Scruggs, I don't really care about OL in '18

Jonathon MacCollister is my favorite commit.. this kid has the frame we need on the edge and fits the ND puzzle.

For sure. His tape is way above the services and he did it at STA of all places. You don't go to St Thomas Aquinas to hide. It makes me wonder if he tweeted something like, All recruiting service dudes are douches to be universally ranked like he was.

Did you see our record this year? We're already in trouble.

Today is optimism day. Check your grumpy azz self at the door. Come on in, grab some pancakes and smile. Dublin's pouring Smithwick's too!

Hush it both of ya.

the staff did amazing to keep most of the players on board and even possibly adding a couple more really talented kids. 2016 football is over on to 2017 football and 2018 recruiting.

This. The more tape I watch of him, the more excited I get. Him, Ewell & Hinish plus what's coming next year in Mustipher and ??? should get ND back to where it needs to be up front.
