I could be wrong .. but I still think he’s Irish

I don't think any of us really know what has been motivating Dante Moore as to where and when he is choosing to commit. I have no reason to confirm nor deny whether or not he is a quality person, solid citizen, team player, or values academics. Based on his film, he has demonstrated that he is a talented quarterback who could potentially be highly successful at the collegiate level. That being said, I don't think that it is unreasonable for a fan to question whether or not he was ever serious about committing to Notre Dame. Perhaps the staff recruiting him and fans were much more serious about him coming than he actually was. I agree that his body language seemed to indicate that , as well as his actions throughout his recruitment process. His priorities regarding his visits, both official and unofficial, as well as his other football related activities he participated in consistently made it clear that Notre Dame was not a priority. That being said. I have no reason to trash the kid or praise him. And it this point, no one really knows whether or not the Notre Dame community was really betrayed or mislead by him regardless of how they may feel about him at this point in time.

And if you are going to create imaginary scenarios about someone's son on world wide innerwebs, would it not be better to say kind & positive things about a kid that (most likely) you have never even been in the same room with?

If he wants ND he will end up here.

I'm entirely in agreement with you that he wants early playing time, and that the NIL money is certainly an incentive.

I can't entirely discount the idea that he's in it only for the sports, and cares nothing for the academics. At the same time, I don't see any glaring indications the other way either.

I think everyone here has moved on from him. We have the guy we wanted in the 2024 class (Carr) and we have three QB's who look like they won't hold back most of the playbook. If we really need someone for 2023, we'll find a warm body in the transfer portal.

Now, that being said, I really wish we would have made a harder push for Chris Vizzina, instead of putting all of our eggs in one basket regarding Moore.
