This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Recruiting, 6/26 and after, last two years by MrE
In the last couple of years, the recruiting calendar seems to have shifted up for recruits to commit to their school of choice, possibly a result of the recently-implemented early signing day in December.
ND has not fared well in the last two recruiting cycles from today's date forward. Here's a list of the national rankings of the recruits that committed June 26 and after in the 2019 and 2020 ND classes:
#208, CB
#211, DE
#366, LB
#386, WR
#464, LB
#513, CB
#521, QB
#530, Athlete
#613, CB
#644, WR
#777, WR
Is it possible Swarbrick is slow-playing Kelly's extension as he waits to see if Kelly and staff's shitless recruiting will continue to move ND further away from competing for a national title?
