    Fucking coachd, always the same look at me fellow.

    And sweet rink at Nd, feels very weird to watch a hockey game with Pierre mcguire talking about nd. I like It, love college hockey and i wish It would get more exposure here in Canada.

    Notre Dame hockey is one of the great joys of my life. Love watching a game at that rink.

    Compton really is incredible. My favorite part is we had to throttle the goal horn, it was so loud when we first put it on the new air system it literally was painful. They let all of our guys fire it off once before the change. That, and ice in south bend is harder to keep than you would think....

    Nice come from behind win. Sure sounds like the JAC got a little rowdier in the second half given what I saw on TV.

    Huge couple weeks. Went from firmly on the tournament bubble to now probably having a good shot at a double bye in the ACC tourney and a pretty solid NCAA seed.

    Good to have a week off and hopefully they take care of business with two winnable road games.

    ND needs to clean up against some of these mediocre ACC teams the next couple weeks

    They might be able to play themselves into a 4 or 5 seed if they stay hot

    He's going to go wherever his handler wants him to

    I don't know of any connection he has to them. I know the only reason ND is considered is because his handler is a DMV area guy and Brey knows him well.

    Just praying Under Armour does the right thing and funnels a dump truck of money to him and his handler. His AAU team and HS team are UA I believe

    So we've got a real chance at the ACC reg season title now. All the teams in front of us have a much tougher schedule remaining than we do.

    Need Carolina to lose 2/7 of their remaining games and Miami to lose just once and we get at least a share of the title if we win out.

    Includes. Sorry that wasn't clear. We are one game back of them in the loss column, 2 behind UNC.

    Assuming both teams win the games between now and then, that game should be huge.

    I'm going to ease up on the "regular season ACC title" talk for now. I'm happy that we're in pretty good position for a double bye in the ACC tourney and if we get anything better I would be extremely happy. Just as long as we take care of business on the road in the next couple.

    His guardian knows ASU's coach pretty well. And Thon's an Adidas guy on the circuit for Team Loaded, which is why the 3 schools that have been mentioned with him the longest are all Adidas schools. His HS wears Nike though.

    Like I said, consisting where they were after Pittsburgh (I think that's the game that dropped us to 1-2) it's amazing they are are they are. And our next 3 opponents agree "easy" but 3 road games on7 days is not easy.

    The Pitt loss and the Alabama loss are the ones that bother me the most. Not even mad about Monmouth because hey are legit and as a non-P5 could easily be overlooked, but Pitt and Bama fucking suck

    I noticed that, too, and thought the same thing. That's generally a clue something. Even more telling is the top ( newer ) of his own following list now includes Laura Thomas (who is rumored to be joining the recruiting staff), Ryan Grooms, a bunch of ND coaches, players and media and the new ND student body president.

    Savvy move by Kelly/Swarbrick to reverse Spurrier's bias for his inevitable appointment to the playoff committee.

    Not sure what spot he would take but I'd be cool with that. And lol at Spurrier having to like ND after all his dislike over the years.

    He definitely has his score by now (they were released Thursday/Friday - bosses' daughter got her's back). Think it's good news if there haven't been any updates yet, because he probably knew the binary yes/no score he needed for admission, so my guess is he didn't hit it or else he would have claimed it, but what do I know.

    seems like lots of underclassmen are visiting this winter- very different from last year

    next class is gonna be a small one but I think they will have it 75% locked up by Texas
