Brian, we're rolling here on the Irish Breakdown podcast, brought you by our friends over at Fanduel. And up next, we're talking about the future of the Notre Dame receiver. And we talked about what we learned about them in the spring, the questions we still have. We also brought up the graphic about their roster and how young it is. But now the goal is to continue adding fuel to that fire and to continue rolling because that's what the top level programs do at wide receiver that's what clenston did for so long that's what ohio state

continues to do that's what for a long stint of time that's what ls u would do you know that's

what alabama would do is continuing to add to it so the future for the wide receiver room is

also just as important of what it's going to do this year.

Look, Trev, I mean, I'm excited about the future of the wide receiver room based on what's there now.

But also, my excitement comes from they're starting to show an ability to land top players.

And it's in different ways now.

So it's, it's, you know, the days of inconsistent wide receiver recruiting are not necessarily gone.

I think that's still a question.

You know, I liked the 24 receiver class.

Cam Williams, I still think has loads of potential like Mic Michael Gilbert. Like even if they don't pan out, they were big recruiting wins. Sometimes just guys don't pan out for whatever reason. Logan's all dot. He's a good player. 25 group had some potential, but it was over, it was a little underwhelming when you look about it. I love Elijah Burris, but I want him to be my number two, not my number one.

And then the other two guys were real raw.

One's already gone.

26th class kind of got things turned around. But it's not just recruiting the high school players that has helped Notre Dame thrive at this position to varying degrees.

Like, you could say, no, the receiving court Notre Dame in 2024 was not an elite group.

It was not a top 10 receiving core.

But it was a group of guys that when they needed to step up and make plays or step up in big moments,

they did it.

They were clutch.

Well, Bo Collins is not going to be mentioned in the same breath as Jeremiah Smith and Cam Coleman and guys like that from a talent standpoint or a number standpoint.

But you know what Bo did throughout his one-year career at Notre Dame?

When the game was on the line and they needed somebody to make a play and Bo was targeted, he made a play.
