ND is currently sitting at 15 commits in the 2019 class and projections have them taking between 21-23 players. Remaining needs seem to be...
1 QB (only if it's a top guy)
1 OL (only if it's a top guy)
1 Rover
1 CB
1 WDE
1-2 WR
Looking at ND's current recruiting board, a lot of the top end talent has committed elsewhere, and with 6-8 spots left in the class, I'd like to see them be very picky with who they take. They need to spend the remaing time during the summer ramping up interest from a couple studs and if they start strong, they need to start targetting quality players that are currently committed elsewhere and who might be wavering.
Of the current list of players that ND has already received a visit from and who are strongly considering the Irish, SDE David Ojabo, Rover targets Tristan Sinclair and Asa Turner, offensive line targets Saleem Wormley and Walter Rouse and Quarterback Brendon Clark are really the only prospects that I'd accept a commitment from right now. I'd like to see that 5th OL spot get locked down, a rover commitment and then the staff needs to re-evaluate their board. If ND can go out and start 4-0 or 5-1, they're going to peak the interest of some top end guys. I'd like to see 3 or 4 spots saved to go big game hunting between October and February.
