If you go back to 2012, they've signed 12 Rivals 100 guys (excluding Gunner Kiel) and we've signed 11 (excluding Korie Rogers). I'm not sure if they've had any more attrition than Kiel, but Rogers was our only loss.
That's about as close as it gets. Unfortunately for us a heavy number of our Rivals 100 talent came in the 2015 class whereas Notre Dame's was spread pretty evenly over 5 years.
It looks like the teams are pretty equal in talent. I think the difference will be Kizer making his first career road start in DV will not end well for him. If they had Zaire I would give them the edge.
Someone may want to dig a little deeper and look at how the two teams have fared recruiting Rivals 250 talent.
