picked Georgia. It didn't end well for him and he transferred. Some players are a fit, others are not. By elite, what is your definition top 2? Below is ND's QB commitments since 2016 upto 2021. The # next to the is their 24/7 ranking of all QBs. In the last 4 classes and next 2 class we have 3 commits in the top ten. I think we are good there.
For 2016, Shea Patterson was #1. I don't know about you, I think Ian Book is a better QB than him.
2021 Buchner #6
2020 Drew Payne #9
2019 Clark #38
2018 Jurkovec #10
2017 Davis #18
