You'd have to be a special kind of idiot to leave ND for LSU. They're running a coach out of town who won championship literally the last time we played a full season of college football. You hypothetically have higher upside there than at ND because of the kind of player that you can recruit, but there...

Your worst case (from an ND standpoint) situation at USC is that they hire someone like Matt Campbell, Pat Fitzgerald, etc. A culture builder. As long as they are dumb enough to hire a “mind” or some form of new hotness they will continue to be terrible. They don’t need a scheme guy/ace...

Purdue 10 point lead and driving heading into the 4th. Would be crazy to see them pull this off.

[IrishLax]

With Rattler — the fact that he couldn’t succeed at a school that has had nothing but QB success recently means that he likely has Ian Book level draft value right now for opposite reasons. People will see him as a high upside player that will likely bust. Book was seen as a high floor player...

[IrishLax]

I would like them to make the playoffs and face Georgia or Alabama. My nightmare scenario is that they somehow luck into a first round matchup with a trash Oklahoma team and actually win that game....

1. Alt + Kristofic the rest of the year.
2. Need to go up tempo with Coan or not play him at all.
3. Buchner should play if healthy in order to build for the future.
4. I love the way the team supports each other and keeps battling even though this is by far the worst team we’ve...

Shocking to see Bama lose considering how trash A&M has been all year.

[IrishLax]

I don't know if I have the words to describe what I just witnessed.

[IrishLax]

This drive by Coan is pretty revealing terms of offensive scheme issues. We clearly have a problem with how we’re calling plays without urgency/confidence which is what leads to so many breakdowns/negative plays. Every time we are in a 2 minute drill or pressure situation we can sling it all over...

[IrishLax]

So Buchner hurt his ankle.... mildly hopping up and down?

[IrishLax]

There’s just literally no reason to play Coan because he doesn’t give you an opportunity to win.

if he doesn’t give you the opportunity to win, either go with the guy who is most ready (Pyne) or the guy with highest upside (Buchner). This shit is just so maddening and...

I never new he signed with them until I read this post. That's awesome....

[IrishLax]

What's good about sites like this is that you can actually talk about various pros without it being censored. Like if you go on Rivals or wherever, you can't post stuff about 247.

I'm not a Driskell fan, and I have my reasons that go back to when he was at ISD and his opinion on CJ Prosise....

[IrishLax]

Of all the dumb recruiting lies I've ever heard, this stands alone.

[IrishLax]

Yeah, it's not abnormal to get extra work in with a specialist or expert. Almost all players do it. A lot of people think it's a total nothingburger, but I think it's a weird look to have one of your current coaches taking you to a former coach in order to get additional training.

On the...

[IrishLax]

it's not crazy, but it being facilitated by Chris Watt is a huge red flag for me. Most players get in extra work with specialists in the offseason, but most players are not being directed to their former coach by their current GA....

[IrishLax]

Yeah, and this rumor is 100% true and a bad look, especially because it was facilitated by Chris Watt who was a GA. That means Watt didn't think that they were getting coached well....

[IrishLax]

This is what kills me, the lack of consistency. That to me is always a hallmark of poor coaching/preparation....

[IrishLax]

It's honestly befuddling. FDNYIrish1 might know better than I... I'm not the most dialed in to the Long Island lacrosse scene. I coach in a different part of the country.

But my understanding is that he was strong, athletic, and shot well in HS.

I don't understand how he has...

[IrishLax]

My main concern would be stacking injuries. We've already had a shit show at left tackle, what if Patterson gets hurt? Or Hamilton? Or Mayer has to miss significant time?

ND is not going to lose to Navy, and will be a sizable favorite over UVA and Georgia Tech. They will be a moderate favorite...
