Ugh… Ivan Taylor visiting Alabama?

He has a free choice to do so. If it is an official visit, and 1 of his 5 allowable, it is his choice.
But, ND also has choices as well --
Verbals are just that. I don't blame any kid for taking their allotted official visits. They owe it to themselves to do their due diligence. How sure of anything were any of us at that age ? I was never a fan of the verbal commitment.
Exactly. Many times kids who verbal somewhere get nudged to go elsewhere because a perceived better player showed interest. Door swings both ways.
The vast majority of Notre Dame verbals stick with Notre Dame. This is simply part of the business.
It doesn't mean we will stop recruiting him, just means he likely is no longer a commit.
In case where they guy is being over recruited they usually just stop recruiting him...like Terry. This isn't one of those cases, I'd expect ND to be after him until he does something officially saying they are out

Ivan Taylor has an OV to Notre Dame June 14-16.
Absolutely. ND still goes hard after kids who have given a verbal commitment elsewhere too as they should. It's the nature of the business.
What evidence do you have of this?
When is the last time we flipped a top 100 recruit from the SEC or the BIG10 to ND?
Comprehension not your strong suit I see.
Freeman era:
Every 2023 recruit who flipped to or decommitted from Notre Dame
Notre Dame pulled six recruits away from a commitment to another school and had seven leave its recruiting class in the 2023 cycle.

Five-star defensive end Stephon Tuitt's flip was both amusing and impactful.

Know the clientele.
I've been here a long, long time. I know that particular poster quite well. I'll be fine.
I don't think anyone here needs to be told who they should or should not respond to. Seems disingenuous to me. What " problem " are you referring to ?
Jmo. But I don’t think Deboer is as good of a recruiter as Saban was. Not too worried as of now.
No one is as good of a recruiter as Saban but he seems to be a very good recruiter. But he wouldn't be visiting Alabama for Deboer. I'm sure it has much more to do with the safeties coach, DC and the history of Bama
with Saban no longer there, Alabama is not going to get what they got before unless their new coach shines nearly as bright and that is exceedingly doubtful. So actually their history might be a mixed blessing.
He kept the class together last year and added a few and they had an elite class last year. Also, have started very well this year. They will be more than fine in bringing in players
Agree. They won't win 6 titles in the next 15 years like Saban did; however, Alabama is not going far.
Too much hs fb talent throughout the entire south, too much money, support, and resources at Alabama, and too much tradition at Alabama for Alabama to slide too far.
And DeBoer can flat out coach.
sure
proof comes on the field; and you do remember that Alabama had pretty much all you mentioned but it was not until Saban came that it was the Dynasty.
Now its clear you WANT this to continue but wanting is not having
The "Ignore" feature is man's best friend on this board! lol
So does ND pull his scholly now that he's taken an official visit to another school? Isn't that the line in the sand Freeman made on multiple occasions?
Not responding to an incessant, disingenuous troll, is another solid feature, IMO.
But I will digress.
