*Notre Dame* - On Vacation

Weird. I think Inglesby is the guy after Brey but Ayers bailing without a new job is really odd.

 

Scott Martin named interim assistant coach. Ayers Twitter wiped clean. He did something bad

 

Guessing banging students is frowned upon.

 

This has to be "old" info, right? We emptied the bench against USF so there's no way the 6 players he referenced could have been active on Saturday.

 

It’s gotta be the 6 that didn’t dress other than Hamilton

 

yeah i just saw the university's announcement on twitter. This is the formal communication of the test results that came out on Saturday morning.

Those players are likely all out for Wake as well.

 

Yeah all definitely out for wake given the acc protocols.

 

Sampson's tweet seemed to suggest that the 4 who tested positive (vs. those in contact tracing) only have to sit out 10 days, so they could technically play on Saturday but would have to miss practice this week. Other than maybe Clark I doubt ND would even consider that as an option though.

 

Loy had this to say on the decommit:

The fact is, a recruit is planning on de-committing. He’s told them that. Notre Dame is trying to get him to change his mind. Simple as that.

I’ll know more today.

 

Why is Abiara still not decommitted?

 

Allegedly the staff got mad at him for his antics and told him to leave, offered some other guy and filled the spot and then OU got full and so he wants to come back and is working on it but no one feels like ND is going to go out if it’s way to have a spot for him.

 

lol wtf

 

I should add that’s reading between the lines a bit

 

man why did I stop following recruiting? this shit is amazing theater

 

You find a spot, one less feel good walk on but oh well.

 

no shit just take the dude, think we are about to see an exodus at LB

log jam with little playing time available

 

Robby Carmody with a broken knee cap. Kid can’t catch a break

 

Clearly he can

 

Welp

 

Shit

 

Huh, bye bye Bye

 

Might take the bye week this weekend and play next weekend

 

But I just made plans to smoke a brisket this weekend.

 

Wake is off too so that would work.

 

Lol wtf did book get the ro ro

 

II saying at least 3 new positive tests this week.

 

I am getting confused isn’t that the same 4 as yesterday?

 

yeah. Last week's tests wouldn't have been what cancelled practice. It was likely new tests.

 

makes sense, so 4 more guys out 14 days plus contact tracing coming up. At this rate no way this season can go on much longer

 

Inevitable but still disappointing. We won't be able to safely field a team at this rate if we continue to lose 2-4 players per week.

 

This is a stupid question, but how does contact tracing not wipe like pretty much the whole team out?

If a Center tests positive and he took just one snap in a practice play doesn't that mean the whole OL, DL, LB, QB, etc. in on that play need to quarantine? I just don't get how 4 players test positive and only like a couple more get quarantined with contact tracing

 

Prolonged exposure. I think 15 minutes of close contact is the threshold

 

Believe they are doing daily rapid testing in addition to distancing wherever possible. They must also be taking into account how long players are exposed to one another and nature of exposure (outdoors/indoors). Assume they figure they can limit quarantine with a strict enough protocol balancing the risks.

 

ACC Champs

 

If we cancel the season right now we will be undefeated in conference play forever. Something to think about. ]

 

game postponed

 

7 new positive tests. Officially postponed.

 

13 in isolation and 10 in quarantine. That's not good.

 

Right after they play a team from Florida...

Probably a coincidence

 

How many more open dates do we have? What happens if this keeps happening?

 

I might have said it here and I doubt a player would be there but bars have been packed with ND students this week. Finnies only let people with student ID in and it was packed. So was CJs.

I can see where a player interacts with a positive student.

 

And a bunch of them live with non players....

 

If we hadn’t had kids out already I’d think this too. USF has a decent med school so I’m guessing they are pretty well tested.

 

Only school ever to win every conference game by 14 points or more has a nice ring to it.

 

Printer reporting the football facility is closed and we probably will just not play the wake game.

 

you mean rather than postpone? i was about to give you shit about posting this 30 minutes after the game was postponed, but I realize this seems to indicate we wouldn't reschedule, which would be a bummer

 

Yes

 

bummer, but if they're having to shut down the whole building, even a game in 12 days is difficult

 

Good thing the SEC and Big 10 are about to start things up. Can't see any of this going further sideways.

 

He thinks nov 7 is a possibility and push Clemson back to the 14th
