i hope Hainsey moves but it has to be because one of the young tackles has really made strides.
Who will be the new running back coach?
- Thread starter BGI User 135
- Start date
Maybe let him get out of the 3rd tier before branding him with that conclusion.
Thinking you should join a purwho board. Brohm is a fine Purdue coach. Hes eons away from a big program.
Fixing a dumpster fire takes time. I didn't say Taylor was going to Bama. I said he was a finalist and that it's possible ND could have lost two of their top choices to Bama.
Final 2019 signing day is Feb. 6. New staff member should be recruiting right up until that day. Bet Clem and Bama will be.
this. working hard on the 2020 class i'm sure.
I'm as hard on Brian Kelly as anyone but I would certainly put him in the top 20. He's just botched some hires and he struggles in big bowl games. It doesn't mean he's not a good coach.
Turner was offered a long time ago. Like over a year ago. Same with Foskey.
If some huge name recruit contacted ND & said he was interested, then ND would recruit them & make room. But once again, name someone? It’s annoying when people just throw out statements like “why aren’t we going after ....” without giving a name.
You tell me what big time RB in the 2019 class is available & interested in ND today?
ME!!! I have one year of eligibility remaining, and one or two concussions left in me.
Just did a quick check. Out of the top 50 RBs in the entire country (which goes into 3 Stars), there are only 3 unsigned. Two of which are way at the bottom. The only uncommitted RB who is good is a Clemson commit who announced at the All American game which is why he didn’t already sign but is not available.
So the answer is that there are ZERO top RBs in the 2019 class that are even available to recruit.
Edit: Except for GetNasty once we check his academics.

Also my 40 time now has probably slowed to the 4.55 - 4.6 range. But i'm super duper smarter now.
People forget that Tulsa finished a 10 win team & was nationally ranked. (And ND lost QB in that game).
Navy wins 9-10 games consistently & is ranked often.
Losing to ranked teams isn’t the same as losing to below .500 MAC teams.
Let's put Tulsa's ten win season in context. Wins against a two win Bowling Green, D1A Central Arkansas, one win Memphis, four win Tulane, four win Rice, five win Houston, and six win Texas El Paso. Signature wins over ND, Southern Miss, and Hawaii. There is no way in hell Tulsa should ever beat ND. Losing at home to Tulsa was bad. Losing to South Florida, at home, was even worse.
Shit happens. As long as it’s not an every year thing that is. Both of those losses were how many years ago? One we lost because of a dumbass INT by the backup QB when all we needed was a FG and another that was like a 6-7 hour game due to all the lightning stoppages.
Turner was a take that was offered long ago. Bertrand and Marist both were told they were on hold with their scholarships for next year depending on attrition and how Turner and Foskey ended up. You are going to tell those two kids "hey we said here was the contingency based on the offers we had out, but now a week before signing day and a month after you committed to us we are move the bar for you to get a scholarship even farther?" Doesnt make sense from a recruiting standpoint. Doesnt make sense from a #ers stand point. Doesnt make sense from an ethical stand point.
I think BK is top 6-10. Was talking about Brohm being definite top 40, maybe but prob not top 20.
That would be the job of the RB coach. The recruit is not supposed to contact ND to express interest. ND is supposed to contact the top players that's how recruiting works.
no it would be the job of the coach assigned to that area. thats the first contact. thats how recruiting works. area coach, position coach, coordinator, head coach. thats the protocol.
except for can't miss studs, then protocol is out the window and all hands on deck, but that's the .1%
yeah but the area guy is always the first contact. its just how soon the others get involved.
The Golden Showers are 7-20 overall vs Oklahoma. Granted most of the wins were pre-Switzer but it's not like they are Pacific College.
Not only that but the original poster was referring to a scenario where an elite prospect decides to open up their recruitment unexpectedly. Notre Dame would have moved on from those players long ago because it would be a waste of time to pursue solidly committed kids.
One major difference. Saban has made up for that loss, to say the least.
The point is crazy things happen & everybody loses a game like that. People just act like only BK does. I witnessed Holtz lose worst games with the most elite talent in the country.
some people here think everything was always hunky dory during holtzs tenure. he had more than his share of stinkers too.
I was a guest of AF at ND in 96 (rooting for ND) & witnessed that debacle in person.
