Getting into the next part of the Irish Breakdown podcast, brought to by our friends over at Vandal.

We got the Friday free-for-all mailbag going on.

And we are rolling right along.

You guys are bringing it great, great questions today.

Start off of the recruiting question here, Trev from Joseph Parr.

With David Davidson committing to Florida, is Notre Dame going to increase their quarterback

board, or do they feel good about Impati?

Lapati is looking at, he'll probably end up going somewhere else.

I don't know that he's made a decision yet, so I don't want to give away his moment,

but I don't see that happening.

I do have an intel piece about LaPatti on the message board. So Joseph,

you can check that out. I do believe you are a premium member. But look, right now I think

Notre Dame's focus, and I think we had a question about that. I think right now,

Notre Dame's focus is on Champ Monz who visits next weekend. We had a question for Bobby asked about that. Where does Notre Dame stand with Champ Mons in his pecking order? If we aren't able to land him, do you have a list of other quarterbacks you think we should go after? So, and then kind of going back to Joseph's question, there are guys that Notre Dame has evaluated that I think that I'm confident they'll turn to.

Who those guys will be, I don't, you know, I'm not going to get into that.

But I'm confident that Notre Dame has a next in line list of quarterbacks.

Will they be able to get those guys?

I don't know.

They may not get the three that they turn to the first time.

What's hurting Notre Dame right now is that you kids aren't just pretending like Teddy Gerard doesn't exist and kids aren't just pretending like you didn't pick Teddy Gerard over me. So like look at it from Camden Lapotti standpoint. Yeah, I love Notre Dame. But you guys thought Teddy Gerard was better than me. That's why you offered him and not me and took him and not me. Now that he's reclassified, you want me in 2027, which means you want to bring me in, and I'm not as good as the guy that you signed who's going to have a year head start on me. I can't blame a kid for feeling that way. It's not about lack of competition, Trevor. It's about an honest assessment of where

do I have the best chance to get an opportunity to play. And so I think they're not back to the

drawing board, but there'll be a bit of a restart if they don't think they can get champ bonds.
