Recruiting Thread

Wow this class is looking scary good. ND just landed 4 star CB Braden Lenzy. Position of need. Elko is killing it. 13th best CB in the country. Stanford and Oregon were in the lead until his ND visit. 6'1 CB. Needs to add weight.

This kid a WR/CB or both? I keep seeing WR cause of his speed.

Great addition of Lenzy, they just need to keep these kids on board.

If I had to guess he's being recruited more for offense. He credited Brian Polian for his recruitment.

After a 4-8 season, I just can't believe the run we're on in recruiting. It's insane! I just hope it's a sign of things to come. If these new coaches can coach our guys up half as well as they seem to be able to recruit after the season we had, we're going to be in pretty good shape in the not too distant future.

GO IRISH! ONWARD TO VICTORY!

I think its more of an indictment of the old staff and their lack of effort in recruiting. By all accounts, Polian and Elko are husstlin'.

I'm not sure the everyone on the old staff didn't give effort in recruiting but the DC certainly didn't and it hurt the team. I honestly feel Elko is 1,000 times the coach BVG is just look at what he was getting out of the talent at Wake Forest. I really think once Elko gets his system in place Notre Dame's defense is going to be very good.

ND is recruiting him as DB with option to play offense.

 

[poewelch84]

I've read Notre Dame backed off Malik Vann, many considered him the next commitment to Notre Dame we'll have to wait and see if this backfires on them.

Anyone know what this is all about??

Maybe Mr. Smith thinks that Mr. Smith looks good in Blue and gold

Notre Dame picked up a 4* OL in John Dirksen. 6'5" and 305. He was one of Heistand's top targets. Good job staff.

It will come down to keeping this class intact. It's shaping up to be Kelly's best if it holds.

 

[poewelch84]

Another great addition, keep them coming and like jcc2009 mentioned keep them in the class.

 

[jjc2009]

Pagano cancelled two if his OV's (Oklahoma and Arkansas). This may be good news although he still has another OV set for Oregon. Dabo indicated he wanted to go to the west coast so this may be all that stands between us landing him.

I really hope we get him because our DL desperately needs help.

This class looks awesome so far. Its crazy how many top OL we get. Oline U. They just keep coming.

win and they stay. I think this is Kelly best staff he put together "all around". Damn this new staff knows how to recruit. BVG not recruiting was a joke.

ND is out of the running for Pagano. Bummer

Good. Didn't really care for him. I want kids that want to be here.

Would have been better if we landed him our DL needs a lot of help and he easily would have started for us.

Soldier on I guess but I wish we landed him.

 

[poewelch84]

Oh well they'll have to develop the guys they have. They still have Tillery, Cage, Dew-Treadway, Tiassum, Mokwuah, and Taylor who is injured but will hopefully be back for the start or early in the season. Not to mention the freshmen they added in Ewell, Hinish, and Tagovailoa-Amosa.

I agree, but for me.....IDK. I am over these guys who need to wait till the very end, make 20 trips to 3 schools, then eliminate one at a time, then take another trip. Enough with the little show you are putting on. It's one yr and it's not like ND is a terrible school. Plus like Poe said, it will take a year away from the younger kids. You either know you want to be here or you don't.
