Seems like some media voters think Michigan's success last year won't be sustained, but based on how they finished the season + who they bring back + who they add, they are absolutely a top 7-10 team. Doesn't really make sense that they'd be four spots behind a Cornell team they beat on the road in...

No. Too many other good teams who improved as much as or more than the Irish did. No more chip on their shoulder. No Tevlin. No Fake. And lest we forget they were extremely fortunate to beat UVA in the semis. They were down with 50 seconds left in the game before Taylor hit that one-in-a-million tw...

Petro had highly rated classes. It's frightening to think what he'll do at UNC which was already a top destination for kids. Rooting for the best for his family this year except when they play us. Haven't seen the new turf yet in the videos. Really hope they got it right. Not interested in a season...

wow, looks like a rather light load this year. Maryland and Cornell already have a pretty loaded OOC but not adding at least another upper level teams seems bizarre. They do play Penn, Princeton, loyola and Denver but a matchup with Penn State here or even G-town would have made sense. Really Rutge...

Syracuse has brought on a lot of new talent. They should be improved. The key question for them is if they are improved enough to defeat teams like Duke, JHU,UNC and UVA who gave them trouble last season. I sure hope you are right. I think a lot depends on the face-off situation. Mason Kohn should ...

What are your thoughts about Towson for 2024? I havent really looked at them. I know my model had them with the 35th offense and 24th defense last year, so I would expect them to improve on that 6-9 record. That is a guess, because I dont know what they are losing. I think I see them as an NCAA tea...

So, ND is not a F4 team in 24’? Why not? Kavanugh, Entemann, along w transfers are back. Didn’t Penn st lose a lot? Army has to score to win in Quarters to advance…. Can they? PSU brings back 6 of their top 8 pts leaders from last year, including TJ Malone Bring back one of the best goalies in the ...

Syracuse.

Is Buchner going back to ND? He played football there before Bama According to Terry Foy, yes. @TerenceFoy: I’m told that Buchner will finish the Bama football season with the team (as has been reported in multiple outlets), then intends to return to Notre Dame, where he’ll join the defending @NCAA...

Anyone who has a problem with Spallina on this list probably never watched him play. There are several players on this list that are a joke in my opinion. You probably know who they are and it’s not my place to badmouth anyone. But not to belabor a point I made earlier, how do you leave a guy off t...

Mackesy, Brandau and Lyons are in that mix. Zappitello Will be in that 6-10 group Michael Boehm completes the list?? That seems high, but I can not imagine him not making the list. How is Spallina on list? Don't love the hype he gets, but he had 55 points as a freshman and it's not a leap of faith ...

How come one day IL sucks and then when it goes people’s way suddenly it’s a meaningful piece of supporting evidence of something? Because this is the Hopkins forum. It’s like Cuckoos Nest around here. I do agree with the sentiment that it seemed like Petro was trying to recruit stars and PM is try...

No Entemann did not graduate.

Wouldn't the best player on Notre Dame be Pat Kavanagh?

Wasn’t Jake Spallina like 87 ish before and now 49? Big jump if that’s correct. And unless I missed it Hill Plunkett, younger brother to PL ROY Evan, went from 39th to off the list. I am not sure where you are getting the 87 number - IL doesn't publish a list of more than 50 until the final version...

If IL takes fall ball performances into account (I think they do based on when they release the list), I think Kabiri (3 - Princeton) and Duffy (4 - UNC) will leapfrog Millon (1 - UVA). Kabiri put up a ton of points against Notre Dame, as did Duffy against Ohio State. Lots of hype already surroundin...

Given that Xanders just left IL, I am guessing he still had a pretty big hand in their rankings.

ACC doesn’t accept associate members, I guess unless you are Notre Dame. So I highly doubt this is true. In a logical world, yes, Hopkins wouldn’t be in the same conference as USC. But none of this conference realignment is logical. Did you really mean the women would join the AAC and not the ACC? ...

Was there only 1 signing yesterday? If so that’s the lightest September 1st since they instituted the change in underclassmen recruiting. no signings, a verbal. you'd think it might make a modicum of sense to have a 2nd date where offers couldn't be made before. and thus no verbals. if there really...
