I’m not saying he does.  But heck, I don’t know that he doesn’t.  And based on this piece of trash, I’d guess he does.

So-so?  Ho-hum?  Give me a freaking break! 

The recruiting this year has been slower than last year.  Yes, I get that.  But coming off a 3-9 season, what do you expect?  Charlie and company have been doing a bang-up job this year, and I expect more success as the summer and fall roll on.  Ho-hum?  LORD.  What do you want, Hansen?  What’s there not to like about a class that features:

• The #1 RB in the nation, #3 player overall
• Unsexy, but VERY MUCH NEEDED, Special Teams players (oh, both ranked #2 in the nation at their respective position)
• Three four-star players at much-needed positions (OL, LB, DT)
• One three-star that is clearly a 4-star in the making as he ‘grows up’ – that would be Carlo Calabrese, who embodies that ‘nasty’ we all so seriously crave
• These players turned down EVERYBODY that’s ANYBODY to join the Irish – they turned down USC, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Michigan (sucks!), etc etc etc.  And yes, Mmmm-bop, that means something.

Give me a break Hansen.  Calling this class so-so is ludicrous.  Calling it small so far?  I get.  Calling it early?  Yes.  But calling this collection of recruits so-so is just inaccurate.  The staff has done a great job of bringing in quality talent at needed positions.  And there’s a whole lot of recruiting to be done yet.  A whole lot.

We may not be able to recreate the recruiting from last year.  It was arguably the #1 class in the nation, and you certainly can’t have that every single year.  But this is shaping up to be Top 10, at least, and could be Top 5.  Heck, we could be #1 again, it’s just too early to say.

 Who could be upset with those prospects?  To me, only someone on the crack.   Just say no kids.  Just say no.

EDIT:  Two fat @$$ pics in a day.  HLS on a roll!

Don't take me, yourself, or life so seriously. This is supposed to be fun.

Biscuit co-founded HerLoyalSons in partnership with his ND roommate (Dillon Hall baby!), MQ, in 2006 and has been ranting about ND Football and everything Notre Dame since. He strongly believes in the mission of ND and its football program. Biscuit expects logic and data in arguments and will absolutely crush you if you come to a debate missing one or the other. He despises everything Michigan, and his favorite pastime is mocking Purdue.
