..who MM & Niele are able to go after.

Without naming specific prospects (just go to the Top 25 of Hoopgurlz or Prospects Nation), you can probably take a guess who could qualify for ND by comparing some of the other schools that are after these prospects.

And there are probably a number of prospects that need to be tracked to see if their GPA's or specific course loads match the requirements of ND.
The "behind the scenes" but essential part of the recruiting.

I think it's one reason why a core group of players is consistently in the news; how some might be seen early in the process, then disappear; and, of course, how some never get discussed.

To some degree, makes the whole process even harder and more competitive.

I've referenced it before and likely will again. What this video reveals about Muffet McGraw Is the principle reason I follow ND women's basketball.
