Welcome back, everyone to another episode of the Irish Breakdown podcast brought you by our friends over at Fanduel. Happy Tuesday.

0:24.8

We have an absolutely loaded show to dive into today. Part one of today's show.

0:29.3

We're diving into Olu, Olo Bobola's commitment. He committed earlier this morning.

0:34.0

Offensive line recruit from New Jersey, five-star kid coming in in the 2027 recruiting class, and then after that, we're picking up with the state of the program series, talking about linebackers today. Very interesting conversation, one of the deepest, probably actually the deepest room in the country, one of the most talented rooms in the country, very excited to dive into them. And then we're going to wrap everything up today,

0:54.5

folks with the daily mailbag talking about just recruiting questions, linebacker questions.

0:58.9

You guys know how it goes. But before we can talk linebackers and before we dive into the mailbag,

1:03.6

Brian, huge commitment this morning, mean that literally and figuratively.

1:07.2

Yes. Olu Obola commits to Notre Dame in the 2027 class.

1:49.5

Yes, he did. It's going to be a fun show today, Trev, breaking this one down and talking linebackers. I did want to give a little bit of a teaser too. We are going to have some things to say about the ACC and their comments about Notre Dame, and we'll have talk about that tomorrow. We will talk about the whiny SEC coaches tomorrow. So this is going to be a fun week. But today, we're going to focus on Notre Dame. And obviously this commitment from Olu, Ola, Ola, is a big one, Trevor. And one of the, their last couple commit, two of their last three commitments have been very interesting backstories. But this is a big one. And look, when you're Notre Dame and you're, hey, we're O'Line you and you're trying to be all those type of things, these are the kind of battles you've got to win.

1:52.6

And these are the type of players you need to land.

1:56.4

And so getting him certainly gives Notre Dame another opportunity to once again have one

2:00.7

of the best

2:01.2

recruit, you know, best offensive lines in the country. And we said it, was it, when did we do the O-line

2:06.2

show? Was that yesterday? You know, look, whatever you think of Joe Rudolph as a position coach is not

2:12.8

really relevant to this conversation, the one thing that you can pretty much guarantee for the next

2:17.0

three,

2:21.6

four, five years is every year. Notre Dame will certainly put one of the most talented offensive lines on the field, the way that they're recruiting in Olu, Oloobabola is the latest. If you

2:27.0

just look at on three rankings, I believe that they have landed in a five-star player going back, I mean, I think even all the way to 2021, they've landed, I think, a five-star commitment, according to on three every year except maybe one.

2:48.6

And I'm actually looking that up now. I'm trying to see who their,

2:51.8

who their offensive line commit. Yeah, no, 2022. Because you had Emil Wagner in 22,

2:57.1

Charles Jaggisaw in 23, Kirby and Lambert in 24, Will Black in 25, Grayson McHugh in 26,
