    So D3 reporting Brandon Hilman will not be enrolling at ND. Apparently he didn’t get the grades required. Bummer.

    One of my favorite recruits, if not my favorite.

    probably ends up at Oregon

    I don’t buy the grades spin. ND wouldn’t let a kid sign unless he was all cleared

    What do you think happened, then? He got in trouble at school? Just didn't want to come?

    I agree that just randomly finding out about grades in mid-March mid-way through a semester seems suspicious...

    One rumor is he received a significant NIL package from another school

    I have no idea

    He may have been cleared but needed a certain class and it didn't go well or something. Sucks either way, I like the kid.

    I don’t agree with that. NLI doesn’t mean shit anymore

    Don’t release him and you invite a lawsuit. Much easier just to release the kid and move on if he doesn’t want to be here. This isn’t 2005

    Sounds like a blatant violation by a school if they're maintaining contact and talking to kids after signing NLIs with another school lol

    Takes a special person to lead a team from national championship game/preseason #1 to missing the tournament with the same core.

    I'm not gonna panic about the basketball team until we see the HC and how they react to the portal, but this, uh, isn't a great start. We're gonna need 6-7 bodies in the portal and probably try to poach 1-2 mid major recruits who might NEED to play next year

    I'll choose to believe he realized he didn't want to come and begged to get out of it and MF was in a lose-lose position so let him go until its confirmed otherwise

    Cuz if it was grades, I'm not sure how all these other great schools are immediately offering him. And if they had a chance to still admit him and didn't, then whoa boy we're screwed
