46 MARCH 2022 BLUE & GOLD ILLUSTRATED 2022 FOOTBALL RECRUITING ISSUE "With that said, I think there's area for improvement in the quarterback talent on the roster. In most cases, you're going to need a difference-maker behind cen- ter to truly challenge for national titles." Singer: "It's obvious. Wide receiver. The Irish were looking at taking four receivers at various points in the 2022 cycle, and to sign just one — and not get a high school receiver in January follow- ing the December debacle — is a head- scratcher. "Notre Dame could really use a third- year transfer to help balance the room, similarly to what the Irish did in adding safety Brandon Joseph in January." Spiegelman: "Notre Dame took a swing at Walker Howard amid the coaching change in Baton Rouge, but settled for Angeli. The Irish need an elite quarterback to insert into this offense."
