That’s the issue we have for a transfer that only has one year left to play and with just about any transfer. ND has been killer by losing three that would have been returning starters or star subs next year in AP, Jackie, and EB.
UConn and Oregon are selling “extremely high odds of getting sting with us this year even if you don’t play” v “ND is starting from scratch and is years away from anything close to what you grew up seeing.”
It works on many. ND is selling you are guaranteed to play a lot and history shows we don’t take as long to reload as others say we do. We still have more McDonals AA than all but 2-3 teams.
Maybe Oregon and UCONN brings the fact we lost all 5 starters and 2 players
with experience to the attention of recruits. You want to win now. Try us and
not ND. I am pretty sure that is being used against us.
