Welcome back, everybody, everybody to another episode of the Irish Breakdown podcast brought to by our friends over at Fandu. Happy Wednesday.

You guys know what that means for us here.

It's time for the Notre Dame midweek rundown.

We have a bunch of awesome topics to talk about.

First two parts of today's show, we're talking about recruiting.

We're splitting it up between offense and defense.

And we're talking about the must

get recruits in the 2027 class, both sides of the ball. It's going to be a very interesting

conversation. Notre Dame looks to stack another top-level recruiting class on the number one

overall recruiting class that they just brought in. But then after that, Brian, we thought it'd

be time to sit down and rank the top 10 coaches,

our top 10 rankings list for top 10 coaches in college football this season.

And then to wrap everything up, we have a conversation about kind of like superlatives,

you know, most underrated, most overrated, up-and-comer, most approved.

So still sticking with the theme of college football coaches.

So it's going to be a loaded show today. I'm very excited to dive into this man. Yeah. It, uh, it, uh, surprised. I mean, not surprisingly, we had nine of the 10 same coaches. We had some guys in different orders. I'm going to have some very interesting things to say during the coaching section of today's show, Treb. It's some very interesting things to say. i'll just kind of leave it at that but uh you know the the there's a lot of things that we kind of thought

we're going to talk about maybe do some draft stuff i think we're going to hold off on the draft

stuff till next wednesday to be a day before the draft just do kind of like a final overview of

of different things but you know get asked a lot of you different things. But, you know, get asked a lot of, you know, recruiting questions. And, you know, there's a lot of kind of who's the hot name in the recruiting world right now. And who's the guy that people are excited about? Who's the guy people are going to lose their minds if they don't get and all these other kind of things? And then also, who are the guys that Notre Dame is going to have to get closing out here to have another top five class?

Will they have a number one class?

We'll see.

Long way to go for that.
