Summary
Notre Dame football suffered a surprising recruiting loss when top-100 offensive tackle Layton Von Brandt committed to Auburn, and the debate over the proposed 24-team College Football Playoff continues to raise major concerns about the future of college football. Tyler Wojciak breaks down what happened with Von Brandt, why the Irish should still be fine on the offensive line, where Notre Dame could turn next in recruiting, and then brings in Spencer McLaughlin of Locked On College Football for a national perspective on why a 24-team CFP could devalue the regular season, make college football feel too much like the NFL or March Madness, and create major unintended consequences.
