He claims he wanted ND because of Rees' ability to develop QB's.

OK, such as?

Ian Book, maybe?
Maybe he didn’t enjoy the running commentary he heard in the stands during his grandfather‘s last few years.

I like this pickup out of Ohio. You can't teach 6'-2" and 205 lbs. Very encouraging. 

Was supposed to visit Illinois this coming weekend. Nope.

Nebraska football picked up a big commitment from Texas, as Argyle (Texas) defensive lineman Riley Van Poppel committed to the Huskers.

The 6-foot-4, 270-pound Van Poppel officially visited Nebraska the weekend of June 10, and didn’t wait long to pull the trigger on a commitment.


Van Poppel holds offers from Michigan, Arizona State, Cal, Florida State, TCU and others. The son of former Major League Baseball pitcher Todd Van Poppel is rated a three-star prospect by 247Sports with an overall rating of 89, making him the No. 56 prospect in the state of Texas in the 2023 class.

Van Poppel officially visited Tennessee and also had a trip scheduled to Michigan when he committed to the Big Red.

Van Poppel is the eighth commitment in Nebraska’s 2023 recruiting class, and the second on the defensive side of the ball.

re: Lloyd Carr's grandkid....apparently Michigan is right at the very top, perhaps even the top school for 2024 5* QB Jadyn Davis of North Carolina. 247Composite has Davis as the #15 player overall and #4 QB in the nation, a touch higher up than CJ Carr who is the #20 overall and #5 QB. Rivals seems to be even higher on Davis, they rate him as the #4 player overall and #1 QB, and one the top Rivals analyst of the southeast/atlantic has even CRYSTAL BALLZ'd him to Michigan.

The top 'crootin guy Witflong over at 247Sports says he likes Michigan for Davis. Might make a little more sense now.....IF they actually close the deal on the kid.

Like interview with Da Bears or the Lions

Oh that kid. I saw him play live a couple years back. 

At the time was very tools-y. Not so polished, but you could see the ability. HS numbers have yet to pop, but he's headed to a parochial semi-powerhouse. He'll get to work with a bunch of next-level talent there, probably put up some numbers. (I say semi-power because they're in a private school league, and NC isn't really a power private school state. So they play a beastly non-conference and then there are only a 1-2 other schools on their level who can compete)

don't really know much about him, stopped following recruiting so closely. Sucks losing LC's grandkid to ND, but if Michigan can pull 5* QB Dante Moore in 2023 and 5* QB Jadyn Davis in 2024, kinda makes up. Those are some ifs now however.

Competition for Michigan for Moore was ND and Texas A&M. ND seems to have promised CJ Carr they're going to stop recruiting Moore- who is also from the state of Michigan. Could be a Michigan-A&M battle to land Moore now.

As much as I want to sh*t on Harbaugh, if he pulls a 5* QB in 2023 (Moore) and another one in 2024 (Davis) - well, that's going to be hard too. He'll probably find a way to screw it up even if he lands both though.

In the composite. He's #9 on their own rankings.

Northwestern adds commitment from 4-star DL, rises to top-5 recruiting ranking for 2023
Paul Harvey | 3 days ago
How do you renew fan interest after an abysmal 3-9 season on the field? One way is to get to work improving the roster on the recruiting trail.

That’s the route that Pat Fitzgerald and his staff at Northwestern have taken this offseason. Despite a bad year on the field, Fitzgerald and the Wildcats are currently killing it in their work for the 2023 recruiting class.

On Saturday, Northwestern picked up a commitment from defensive lineman Ashton Porter out of Cypress, Texas. Listed at 6-foot-2.5 and 255 lbs., Porter becomes the highest-ranked commitment in Northwestern’s 2023 recruiting class.


According to the 247 Sports Composite Rankings, Porter is a 4-star prospect and the No. 292 player in the country regardless of position. He is also rated the No. 42 DL nationally for the class of 2023.

With Porter’s commitment, Northwestern is all the way up to No. 3 nationally in the team recruiting rankings, a mark that would be Fitzgerald’s best recruiting class by far. There is still a long way to go before the Early Signing Period in December, but Fitzgerald and his staff have a huge jumpstart on a very impressive recruiting class.

Thanks for telling us...the rest, of the story

yeah Rivals and 247 both seem to be super high on Davis. Rivals has him as a top 5 player overall, 247 a top 10. Must be ESPN or something pulling his composite ranking down a little bit.
