Who's Next? - 2023 Edition

[irishandy]

Braylon James it is.

Lucky- do you think Jagusah could pop this weekend?

I would go with James or Jagusah being next.

I wonder if they are going to use the bat signals this year.

I would imagine they will do so if the player gives permission. If James has a set announcement, then they won't. I could see them using it if Jag commits and then announces the next day

I’ll guess the chances of that are slim. He’s visiting Michigan on Sunday after he leaves ND on Saturday, I would think nothing comes public until after both. Though could that come next week and he beats James to the punch. Doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility.

 

[Dale]

Pendleton then ……?

 

[notredomer23]

Pendleton then ……?

Limar maybe, but a spring game surprise first would be nice

Cmon down Emmett Mosley Jr!

 

[IrishBoognish]

I really have the feeling Dante is going to come to us quicker than we think.

That said... we get a couple DL's then Dante.


I dont know if you guys have been following the news today... but it seems ND has been working on getting NIL into shape.

I'm feeling pretty damn good right now.

 

[BobbyMac]

Cmon down Emmett Mosley Jr!

 

[stpeteirish]

Boubacar’s gonna pop this weekend

 

[Dale]

Could def see a 2024 pop. I could see Boubacar commit with little announcement or video etc so he could sneak in quickly here

Boubacar’s gonna pop this weekend

Visiting what will be Tuesday

 

[Luckylucci]

Most likely to beat Pendleton on the 25th would be Limar or Houstan, IMO. I think Traore caught wind of Houstan’s soon to be commitment and is coming to get his spot on the 26th, though it may not go public right away.

 

[NDMIA]

Devan Houstan - any day
Jayden Limar - 4/23
Sullivan Absher/Monroe Freeling/Austin Siereveld - 4/23
Sam Pendleton - 4/25
Boubacar Traore - 4/26

I'm not saying those are the dates that all the commitments are happening but rather the dates those targets are visiting plus Pendleton's announcement. I think one of Siereveld, Freeling, or Absher or maybe two could grab spots in the class quickly if they want to go to ND over Clemson or OSU. I'd be surprised if Houstan makes it past this coming weekend without hopping on board unless he's given the "take your time, your spot won't be taken" speech from the staff. Definitely exciting times coming for sure. I'm gonna go ahead and say who's next...

Limar
Siereveld
Pendleton
Traore

Driskell said the other day on an irish breakdown podcast on youtube that Freeling wasn't going to make a decision for quit a while but things sometimes change for these kids though

 

[Dale]

Anyone placing a wager on a Traore - Absher - Houstan trifecta?

 

[rtrn2glory]

In that order??

 

[Dale]

In that order??

Can’t hit a trifecta without it.

Not as confident in the Houstan vs Absher timeline

 

[NDdomer2]

ehh just for no ties sake ill say Traore Houstan Absher

 

[SoIll]

someone who knows more about OL recruiting than I.

These guys are obviously solid prospects but according's to 247 they aren't ELITE. (besides Jagusah) Wrong evals? moving up soon? What's everyone think.

 

[Irish4life]

I think if Harry Hiestand wants an OL prospect, that means he's probably very good

To whoever answers this, can you also try to group the prospects by interior, tackle, or swing guys?

If I wanted a smartass response I would of went to 247

Many are unfinished products with some great tools.

Pendelton has great feet for a guy who will likely move inside and is already a mauler. (Swing)

Absher and Freeling are both guys who are real long and athletic with plenty of good weight to gain. (Tackles)

Siereveld is a BIG boy in the lower body and moves well with it. Reminds me a bit of Aaron Banks. (IOL)

They could/would all likely move up in the camp settings, but it's always a crap shoot because why rank committed kids much higher than they already are?

 

[NDdomer2]

intersting take considering all of these guys were already evaluated pre Harry EXCEPT for Pendleton.

 

[BeauBenken]

Went back and labeled them for you. Of course take it with a grain of salt as I'm going off of the clips I've seen, what I've seen of their body shape/size, and what some of the industry people have taken note of.

 

[BeauBenken]

Also from reading up on the kids, one of the better things to note is that it seems like Harry is really keen on building a cohesive unit and has found recruits that will work well in that setting versus just a collection of talented individuals. Pendleton raved about the "brotherhood".

 

[SoIll]

Thanks Beau!

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

After skimming the recruiting classes, the lowest ranked guy I can find who was recruited under Harry and turned into a starter level player for ND was Sam Mustipher (247 composite: 0.9123 #225). Am I missing anybody?

So ur saying that only Jagusah and Freeling should be folks were excited about?

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

Not at all. That's way too reductive. I was just curious about HH's history at ND with development on lower rated guys. I honestly assumed it was better than that.

Anyway, even if you take it at face value, these ratings are far from final.

I think if 247 wanted a smartass question, they would've asked you to post it.
