Scott is exactly the kind of player we need to begin to close the gap between us and the very top tier Programs. A couple months ago he was damn near certain Irish, then trending to Miami, and the new buzz is trending to Michigan. I don’t think this reflects on a young man playing the field one against another looking for the biggest NIL deal, or just an impressionable young man who falls in love with his last date. Rather, my impression is that Scott is a serious young man going about his due diligence. Frankly, I don’t think any Of these analysts/writers have any inside knowledge of Scott’s thinking. He’ll announce soon and whomever he selects, will spend the remainder of the year fighting to hold on to his commitment as schools, including us, will continue to recruit him.
