Recruiting in general...
- Thread starter hoopsstar12
- Start date
My opinion is that probably not. What is unusual is that all the recruits have 4* or 5*.
And that’s even after committing to ND. What I’ve seen in the past is that the player will drop in rankings, some quite significantly, after committing.
A lot of that is Notre Dame fan conspiracy, obsession stuff. Players go up and down on every team. It's part of the process. Just like the draft. Players stocks go up and down constantly
we have had a lot classes in the past done or almost done by early to mid summer but not this many 4 and 5 star kids as usually we'll have a couple or so 3 star kids in the fold at this time
Some is rooted in conspiracy, some is fact. I’d have to go back and double check, but I’m 99% Billy Schrauth dropped in rankings from December to March. During that time, no football was played, and no practices were had. The only that changed was that he committed to ND.
They do their final rankings in january so that is incorrect. Plus they did have all star games during that time
Can’t find it, so I’ll concede to your point. I’ll keep looking, but I think you may be right about it being a conspiracy

Get him. Never too early for MF.
Who knows, who cares.
You think he's the only guy that moved down in the rankings? So is there a conspiracy to the other ones who dropped too?
Relax. I’m not saying there is some huge conspiracy out there to hurt ND. What I am saying is that it’s curious why Davis-Swain dropped 37 spots for seemingly nothing happening other than his commitment to ND. If there are other kids that dropped that drastically after a commitment when they havent played or practiced football, I’d be curious as to who they are.
ND recruits drop in the rankings over-night.
Gas prices ($6 where I’m at) go up over-night.
Can someone tell me what the hell is going on in this country?!

If other kids are going to camps and performing well they will jump up. Some kids then have to drop.
Maybe they actually watched some film. 100 seems about right for him. 63 may have been too high
To all the BK haters. Here is some fodder. Jaiden Ausberry from Baton Rouge, LA was crystal balled to our Marcus today. 4 star LB 2023 class.
Interesting fact. Early in the recruiting cycle he was a borderline 5 star ranked as high as #31 overall but has slipped to #69.
Still would be a huge get and add yet another elite prospect to the defensive side of the ball in this class.
When recruits commit to ND they become slower and more academic.
Pathetic. What a complete disaster this economy has become.
I've already spent $250 on gas this week. $115 to fill my wife's SUV. $135 to fill my truck. But the snide remark of the wealthy left would be, then get rid of your large vehicles (that you cart your kids around in and haul things daily).
Hate that this thread got hijacked but I'm a sucker for stupid comments. Just remember in April of '20 when OPEC+ decided to reduce oil by 10M bpd and keep doing so for 2 years. Not only that but asked the US and other countries to do so which we happily agreed to.
And yet the price of gas was only $2.20 per gallon when Joe took office. And then it was $ 3.70 per gallon when this year started. With continued reduced traveling, more remote working, and barrels produced/consumed almost the same…
all the while Joe and admin are telling us no inflation, then inflation just transitory…and now we sit at 9% inflation per month of May, and well onto $7/gallon for gas by end July
Even more ironic, Joe campaigned on making Saudi Arabia pay for its human rights violation….then went hat in hand to them and to Venezuela …to be told NO…when he asked them to raise production ..:they don’t even answer Joe’s calls any more.
yet Joe hamstringed American producers with line 5, with fracking, with Alaskan drilling…with permits that are more difficult to effect
not sure why you choose to try to eliminate Joe and his green agenda and his $2 trillion stimulus and his Covid policies (which did not decrease deaths as he claimed he would) as major contributors to inflation .
but thought I would make sure facts are posted before this thread is closed

Anyway, who's the next to commit? I am sensing Gray?? Anyone think it's ironic that the Christian Gray is the highest rated corner we will have landed since Gary Gray, cough (2007).
Jaden Mickey is going to be very good.
I believe someone will Verbal before July 1. Who that is, no idea, I could only speculate amongst Charles Jagusah, Jason Moore, Jaiden Ausberry, and Ronan Hanafin.
Ignorant.
Supply.
Demand.
It's a global free market. The us president does NOTHING that can impact global gas prices.
Removing the third biggest producer of oil from the market while Chinese demand skyrockets means high demand low supply. It's simple economics.
No one is building out small drilling companies like they did last time because the saudis and Russia flooded the market bankrupting most of the ones that didn't get bought up.
Please don't talk about drilling more or increasing domestic supply unless you understand the economics of lifting fees.
The gas prices were so low because global demand was CRUSHED by covid and there was a glut of supply. Oil companies are ringing the cash register with record earnings.
I'll stick with Grey as well. I think jagusah will push things out a bit more. Notre Dame has zero leverage with jagusah and freeling to push for early commits as it is known they will take both no matter what.
To me it’s starting to seem we had a big surge early in recruiting and now we are starting to slow back to reality. I don’t get the vibes that Hanafin is going to pick us. I think he goes Clemson or Bama. Rico won’t be able to turn down an Ohio State offer imo. We aren’t getting Dante Moore, according to many he was a lock. Gallagher is out. Greathouse doesn’t seem all that sure about ND. Tease will likely go to USC. Freeling is unlikely. All these guys were considered part of that top 5 class. I know this won’t be popular to say, but I think it’ll be tough to finish top 5, let alone top 3 like many predicted. While I love the staffs energy and relentless recruiting, I think they are starting to get a dose of reality. There are major issues in WR recruiting.

Not off base to question whether we will finish top 5, Homer Simpson. I can love MF but still see this won’t be easy.
