Couple of things - (1) I still remember where I was when I got the teo text and (2) wild it came down to 24 hours before
We all knew it was coming, fuck everyone who got ND fans so invested in this kid sidenote he’s one of the good ones, I’ll root hard for him
It’d be amazing if all this Oregon stuff was just a game to distract and then he actually commits to ND.
I hope they wait until at least February before going scorched earth. Go through the season and find a way to by November display that ND is the perfect place for him. Buchner sucks: hey come here and play day 1. Look at all these recruits you get to play with! Buchner is good: look at this offense you get to land in after he goes pro!
I can't tell if this means "he silently committed, and its public he's committing Friday" or "he acted super shitty to ND, and I'm about to spill the tea after this goes public, he's not getting away with this" If the latter, that's a bush move and screw that
Recruiting people continue to be fucking weird, man. The kid is 17 years old, who cares if he told you one thing and did another. Going off on the kid accomplishes nothing but tarnish the reputation of the program you cover/root for in the eyes of future recruits
I only wear retro looking t shirts and “baseball” shirts from shop UND. Don’t think I’d be interested in anything Nike could do if I haven’t bought any UA gear
Downsize the administrative staff if we need to save some money. Colleges need to invest in the profit centers (football, basketball, and the professors) and trim the cost centers.
I’ve gone almost exclusively to homefield stuff for t-shirts/sweatshirts but I still own a ton of UA stuff for different weather situations. Their rain gear etc. is elite.
Disagree, there is never a scenario in which telling the truth isn’t the right thing to do. As long as it’s the truth, and not his opinion of it. I don’t come from money and don’t fault any kid for taking the bag
The last ND game I went to was the rain storm where we got smoked in Ann Arbor. Was pretty much decked out in LL Bean shit and UA tights I pretty much wear black skinny jeans and vans everywhere so I’m just not cut out for games that take place after like week 5
Oh yes, the academy would love this. "Hey let's get rid of the people that do the things that we don't want to do so that we have less time to do the things that we want to do." Athletics isn't a profit center anymore. Get over it.
That Ben Minch guy is visiting. Sounds like we are just waiting for downs to officially say no before scooping him up
If nothing else, he's significantly faster than the kids above him. And he plays at a pretty good program where he'll be well coached.
I mean we are firmly into next wave of prospects now, seems like the top 247 is pretty much spoken for now or will be after July I'll be very curious how they end the class- I'm think 24 is the number and save a ship for a WR transfer
I’m wondering why we don’t kick the tires on other safeties first Is he better than McCullough’s kid?
I couldn’t find the article or the kid but I saw a name of a kid they saw throw at camp and liked. IIRC your typical Tommy kid.
