Georgia offered Micah Bell

This kid (Smith) seems like he's just providing depth for this class.  ??? That's not to say he doesn't become a dude, or he isn't a great kid.

I see quickness and ball skills, but he's not very big.  Fast, but not lights out.  If we keep even two of Flores, James, Greathouse, where's he pencil?  Plus Edwards and Limar from this class seem like they might project to some slot work in time.

I know we need the WR depth, but we're getting pretty close to max scholarships with the transfer portal going full tilt Monday.  Just saying, am I missing something on this kid?

He's a slot. 

And we are keeping all 3 you mentioned

Lost 20-10

Wow that is surprising

Did Bowen win his state title ?

Early signing day is Dec 21-23. The remaining prospects should announce then or just prior. In a month, this class will either be complete or ND will be search for a player or two to fill. 

What are the announcement days for 

Kaleb Smith

Brandyn Hillman

Khalid Barnes

Chris Terek

Thats the 4 guys we have left as far as I know

With Minchey ND has 15 EEs and 14 All-Americans in this class. Guys to keep an eye on are Limar and Bowen 

So you feel good about Love and Edwards?

I doubt that they go after a QB in the transfer portal unless someone transfers out of ND.

Definitely going after one.  Our starter next year

Are we going to be able to keep all 3 is the question

Did Love remove all his ND stuff from social media?

If you read my post again, I literally said I want I want an ugly 6-3 OKST win because I want to ensure they don't jump ahead of the Irish.

Yeah. I was confused because there is no chance of that.  We're 18. They are 22.  They arent going to jump 5 spots by beating a .500 team regardless if it was a win by 60 points. 

Go Ok state. Destroy Oklahoma by 30 and hopefully Peyton Bowen sees the light

Bedlam is today, I am sure he is there.  I hope its a snoozefest.  I'd hate to see Oklahoma get a win with him in the building but I also don't wanna see Oklahoma State win either.  Tough choice.  Maybe an ugly 6-3(its the B12 yea right lol) win for OKST so they don't move up much, if it all, in the rankings.  Keep them behind ND.

Why don't you want ok st to win? They are irrelevant.  I hope they destroy Oklahoma 

Is he visiting Oklahoma again today?  He basically already lives there at this point

Fair point, but I'd think it has to factor coming from Tennessee.  Sure seems like he's trending our direction, though.  Nothing they can't overcome - just keep him warm!

Nah,  he's Irish

Hillman, Barnes and Smith?

He’s a four star QB that saw limited action due to injury. Sounds like Buchner but hell ND needs QBs and I’d say add him to the room and make all four plus another one as a transfer compete. You may loose one or two after spring but that name of the game these days.  He can’t be any worse than who is currently throwing the ball on Saturdays.  Add Hillman and Powlus to that room too and make all 7 duke it out.   
 

Hope he pulls the trigger this weekend and we can all welcome him aboard. 

Hillman wont be a QB here

So where would a commitment for Minchey put us class rank wise? 

No movement.   Still 3rd

Not a complaint.  Observation.  There’s a difference.  To call it a complaint is to try to stymie honest dialogue about the position.  Having him is better than nothing, because who knows how he’ll turn out, but if he turns into Pyne, we’re going to continue to be stuck in neutral as a team - there’s no more important position that determines whether a team has a chance to win a national title than qb.

Hes not a similar player to Pyne. I question the evaluation of the person who said that. As in, they arent similar

A buddy of mine who coaches and is familiar with Minchey seems to think we’re just getting another Pyne… Disappointing if true.

There's the complaints

That was quick

Wow that would be a nice pickup

Keep winning

I dont know how to take that

Who is visiting for the BC game?

This is an awful take. If he’s a D1 kid, why did no one offer him? Heck, I don’t even think he had an FCS or div 2 offer. 

There's players in the nfl who didn't have D1 offers 

The national champion QB was a walk on

High school means nothing once you are on a college campus.   Salerno is playing over guys on our roster who are D1 kids. 

So your point makes no sense.  At all

48 minutes ago, ndomer4 said:

That’s why I think losing those guys is a big deal. Salerno is a massive drop off from Johnson, Keys and Young. Salerno doesn’t make the practice squad on any top ten team, yet he’s playing meaningful snaps here? That shouldn’t happen at ND. 

Young is out of eligibilty. So no there. 

Keys is better than Salerno.

I dont know what Johnson is doing.  Nothing in his career. Hes a head case. Bust

We havent lost anything that was a big deal 

33 minutes ago, ndomer4 said:

We’ve lost others… Brunelle, I’m sure there are more. We will disagree though as they are not equal. We’re talking about a guy (Salerno) with no offers, to guys with multiple power 5 offers. Salerno is not a good athlete. This isn’t Chris Finke, go watch his HS tape! It’s TD after TD. Salerno is a div 3 player at best. 

Brunelle is at Yale. Is he even playing there?  I dont know. 

Salerno is better than him.  Hes also better than a D3 kid.  Hes a d1 kid, just not at ND

While it may have not come to fruition, you know as well as anyone there was smoke of a number of front line guys being unhappy and looking at options last year.

IF that happens, ND is simply not in a position to take that hit and replace a bunch of numbers. The free agency-esque culture will bite ND if they don’t adapt.

We didnt lose any front line guys and I dont see us losing any front line guys. 

We'll lose depth guys that arent difference makers that every team loses
