Episode Details

James Franklin’s Virginia Tech is heating up the recruiting fire with a potential poach on Notre Dame’s prized linebacker recruit, Amarri Irvin — the only LB committed for 2027. With Irvin visiting Virginia Tech after skipping a Texas A&M trip, tensions flare between Franklin and Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman, still smarting from their January 2025 Orange Bowl fallout. Notre Dame’s in a bind — they can’t publicly call Irvin out, but they’re dangerously behind at linebacker and need answers fast. This isn’t just recruiting chess — it’s a high-stakes game of perception, pressure, and poaching that could reshape the 2027 class.
