It's time to head out west and look at the best recruits for each Pac-12 school. Although there's one heavyweight program on this west coast trail we'll also see plenty of other interesting players scattered throughout the conference. But first, the club no one wants to be in. No 5-Star Loser Club Arizona Utah Washington [...]
After a brief look at the top recruits from the non-Power 5 and Notre Dame we're back in the Atlantic Coast Conference and their best efforts. Before we get to the proper article remember we have to laugh at the poor programs who don't get a full feature today. No 5-Star Loser Club Duke Wake [...]
In case you missed it, I recently reviewed my way-too-early guess at Notre Dame's recruiting class of 2022. As is tradition, next year’s way-too-early guess is next, and I think it’s one that most of you would be very pleased with. The Fighting Irish have gotten off to their best recruiting start since, well... Ever? [...]
So far in this series we've looked at the best recruits since 2000 from the Big 12 and Big Ten conferences. Today we'll look outside of the Power 5 conferences, including our own Notre Dame Fighting Irish. As always, only 5-stars need apply. There are plenty of Power 5 teams who have never signed a [...]
Around this time a year ago I published my Way-Too-Early Guess at Notre Dame Football's Recruiting Class of 2022. At the time, college football was still in a recruiting dead period that would last another 3 months. Many of Notre Dame's top targets had never set foot on campus, presenting a difficult challenge when putting [...]
Hopefully you enjoyed our overview of the 2022 Notre Dame recruiting class with recruit grades and some thoughts on the class. We started a deeper dive into position groups with a look at the offensive skill positions, then moved on to the offensive line, then the defensive line (plus the punter, because he has to [...]
This is the 2nd part in a 6-part series exploring the best recruits at each school from this current century. Once upon a time, people called this the Rivals era but they've fallen too far behind in recruiting and that term isn't used as much anymore. So far, we've looked at the Big 12 and [...]
Notre Dame's 2023 class jumped into the #1 spot in the 247 Composite on Friday when four-star linebacker Preston Zinter announced his commitment to the Irish. Avid Irish recruiting fans may recognize the 6'3", 221-pound Bay Staters' surname; his older brother Zak is a former Irish target at offensive guard and incumbent starter for Michigan. [...]

Hopefully you enjoyed our overview of the 2022 Notre Dame recruiting class with recruit grades and some thoughts on the class.

Hopefully you enjoyed our overview of the 2022 Notre Dame recruiting class with recruit grades and some thoughts on the class. We're in the midst of a deeper dive on each position group, which started Tuesday with the offensive skill positions. Today we're looking in the trenches on offense, where Notre Dame has put together [...]
Hopefully you enjoyed our overview of the 2022 Notre Dame recruiting class with recruit grades and some thoughts on the class. Over the next several days we'll go into a deeper dive on each position group, starting today with the offensive skill positions (which, sadly, we can condense into a single post). As a reminder, [...]
A Shift in the Landscape Well, all quiet on all fronts, really... Once again, as has been the case since the early signing period was instituted a few cycles ago, Notre Dame's recruiting class was all but wrapped up in December. In fact everyone's recruiting class was more or less wrapped up in December; of the [...]
Any time you visit a college football team's recruiting class on 247 Sports there's a list at the bottom of the page for the program's highest-rated recruits since 2000 when the modern era of recruiting unofficially began. It's one of my favorite things to look at because it's both reassuring and sometimes shocking to see [...]
Notre Dame's 2023 class kept rolling, and in unprecedented fashion, when elite safety Peyton Bowen announced his commitment to the Irish at his high school today. Bowen is currently the #59 overall recruit in the 247 Composite rankings, and based on his junior film could well end up as a five star. He's the fourth [...]
