Welcome to Irish Illustrated Insider, brought to you by irish Illustrated.com.

I'm Tim Priester with Tim O'Malley and Pete Samson.

It's the day after signing day, which is about as anticlimatic as we could possibly have ever imagined from what it used to be.

But 21 and Nordheim's 22 players in the class of 2019 signed back in December.

The one that they did get was a big one, Isaiah Foske.

I think we all like him and we'll talk about him a little bit.

But, you know, Nordame ranked somewhere between 12 and 15, I guess.

I think it's more like between 14 and 16.

Okay, more like 14 and 16.

What do you guys think?

Strengths, weaknesses.

How do you look at this class?

I think strengths, most people can agree with the lines, which is good to have you.

It's your strengths as long as you augmented other places. I have the defensive line as my best group. I think, Tim, you had the offensive line. Pete, I'm sure you have one of those two. Right. So strengths would certainly be up front on both sides of the trenches. I think I, I guess I like the upside of the defensive players. I don't know if this is accurate or fair, but I think I see one tackle, two guards in the center among the offensive lineman, because I don't, I think Quinn Carroll will be a great guard. I don't know how he'd be a tackle. I think he could be a quality tackle, but I think they're looking at him inside. Well, actually, Jeff Quinn said tackle yesterday on his sort of pre-produced in-house media, which, like, once they're already here, you don't need to use that as a recruiting pitch anymore. That's true. I was going to say they use that for everybody coming in. Well, look, if he's a tackle, he's a guard, whatever, he's 6-6-3-0-pound. He's a good player. And really athletic and very strong. So it's... We like both positions. Yeah. I guess I would probably go...

I think I would go offensive line one and defensive line two.

And then, like, defensive back collectively three.

I think...

That's a pretty big drop-off, though, don't you think?

But I do like...

I just like all three of those groups on their own merit.

Like, I like the defensive back group, not like just for Notre Dame or like just for

what they were able to cobble together.
