5 of them are WRs, 0 are projected as defensive players. This Alexander guy was listed as recruiting 2 of them for his previous employer, both highly rated WRs from LA, but neither are from high schools ND usually recruits, if you catch my meaning.
The top guys used to put ND on their lists even if we weren't offering them, just to enhance their credibility. Since August, 2014, it is the other way around...it enhances their credibility to leave ND off their lists.
I appreciate your efforts at maintaining optimism, Rocket. But we are toast as far as being a power in CFB is concerned IMO.
There is no miracle coach out there who will both make a huge difference and be willing to come to ND, as long as we are working under a 1970s business plan. I don't really even blame Kelly, although he drives me crazy on Saturdays. I think the admin let him slide this year at 4-8, because they know they publicly de-pantsed him 2-1/2 years ago, and that no coach who has a set of balls is going to come within 100 miles of ND, at least for the time being.
We are grasping at straws.
