    Another thing that doesn't make any sense about DB recruiting is the Bookie situation. Guy seems to be legitimately popular in the college football world in general and he is so far happy with the coaching, scheme, and team he has here, after coming from oklahoma!. How do you fuck up that clout? How are these morons this bad at this? The more I think about it the less it makes any sense.

    Our CB signees last year were an unknown dude who's torn one of his ACLs twice. The other kid tore his ACL once. Both undersized.

    One thing I learned from Eklund's article is that ND's db coach (who beat out our 2 db coaches) is entering his 2nd year, meaning his only experience as a recruiter was during the covid dead period year.

    He's been the CBs coach at Idaho, Bowling Green, Cincinnati, and now ND.

    Still doesn't mean Harris and Brown aren't fucking terrible.

    One thing I learned from Eklund's article is that ND's db coach (who beat out our 2 db coaches) is entering his 2nd year, meaning his only experience as a recruiter was during the covid dead period year.

    Mickens (DB coach), was known as a top young DB coach who was taking 2 Stars nobody wanted & making them All Conference as Freshmen & Sophomores, and getting G5 kids to the NFL.
    Freeman, (the new DC), was rated the 4th best recruiter in the country by 247 before getting to ND. He was from Ohio State, (NFL too), then was the lead recruiter & DC that turned Cincinnati into a top 10 team. He chose ND over LSU & a few other SEC schools. Since he was hired 6 months ago he offered and received commitments from the following 4 & 5 Star kids:
    LB Burnham (top 100 Michigan legacy)
    LB Jr Nuiafe (top 100 flipped from USC)
    LB Sneed (top 30, 5 Star MVP)
    DE Ford (top 100,
    DE Vernon (9th Overall ‘23, OSU Flip)
    DE Keeley (top 100 ‘23, Florida)
    DE Gobraia (top 150, PSU Flip)
    DE Agu (Over Bama & Clemson)
    CB Mickey (top 150, California)
    CB Moore (4 Star Over Florida & Bama)
    CB Bellamy (4 Star, PSU Flip)
    And now possibly CB Morrison, who committed to Lake as a 10 year old in a hand written letter.
    Already picks in the ‘23 class for 5 Star LBs Bowen (from Indiana near ND) and Styles (brother Lorenzo on ND now) & top 100 overall DT Montgomery.

    Marcus Freeman is an animal. Mike Mickens is also a great recruiter too.
