One thing I'll say -- this is going to piss off State School U and certainly create turf wars. I think most people realize this, but your Tier 2 or Tier 3 state schools (Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Illinois, Indiana, Pittsburgh, etc.) already HATE losing kids to Notre Dame. When that happens for...

After the spring game, I think it is less likely that we will be total butt. I think that our OL will have problems but not be so bad that we get spanked by physical teams. I think CB isn't in as dire of a situation as I originally believed... I think they will be competent....

Former Notre Dame lacrosse commit as a matter of fact....

Being 100% serious, Tyler Buchner had the best underclassmen lacrosse film I have ever seen for midfielder....

With due respect to Zeigler, he's a heck of an athlete but a pretty raw lacrosse player. Gobaira, on the other hand, would be a top recruit as a defender. I only saw him in person in camp when he was a freshman but he had all of the tools you are looking for and unlimited upside.

Also,...

Maybe. But if you were a betting man, would you place money on Phil being a 1st Rounder or UDFA? I think he was way closer to the latter last year....

The Atheltic has Phil Jurkovec going #15 overall. I don't know what they watched last year or how high this analyst was when he put together the mock.

[IrishLax]

Awesome news, and congrats!...

Based on Israel's numbers, a lot of economists seem to be suggesting that if an additional ~40 million people get vaccinated that should be enough to basically put this to bed.

Funniest story I ever heard was Saban himself offering Gunner Kiel like $10k on his visit. Allegedly told him to go check in a Bear Bryant hat in a car and there was a giant wad of cash inside. Story came a professional reporter who allegedly heard it from Kiel himself.

But yeah... even...

These are probably the two most significant program-impact rumors I heard in the past few years that didn't leak at the time. I can't speak first hand to their veracity, but they're "allegedly" what happened:

The first is what went down with Harry Hiestand. He was a coach who...

[IrishLax]

Somewhat close. Some negative public sentiment (about his "chicken" comments, etc.) after that leaked had an influence on those talks not going anywhere....

I really feel like Baker will be fine in the fall as long as they commit to him and give him enough reps. Spindler and Fisher will be fine in the long run. Correll will be fine. Patterson will be great. So worst case scenario if one of your tackles can't hold up you kick out Patterson to tackle and...

1. Coan should clearly be the starter.
2. Buchner has all the potential we hoped he had. It’s hard not to watch that game and think about what he can do with this roster in ‘22.
3. I think the OL could be OK once they get Patterson back. I’m more optimistic about them than...

One of their top players — who wears the famed #22 — allegedly assault a girl and then their coach reinstated him and the team said “if he’s here, then we’re not” and threatened to not show up to practice if he was there. So there’s basically a full on mutiny happening in upstate New York....

[IrishLax]

This is where I believe one is supposed to say “allegedly” or “reportedly”... so allegedly, it was a completely nonsencial and trumped up... “complaint”... from a female he’d been seeing. She felt spurned and wanted him gone. I’m leaving out a lot of details...

[IrishLax]

Go Browns. Officially a Browns fan now, fuck it.

[IrishLax]

Wild.

[IrishLax]

This is basically why I feel the Bears got a steal. No telling whether he will pan out, but the dude has all the physical tools to be a top pick and it took some strange group think to push him down to 11. The only difference...

I don't have the names but understand why people would speculate Johnson. I was told to expect that at least 1 older and 1 younger WR to transfer transfer before the start of next season. Apparently everyone is chomping at the bit to play and there just aren't enough minutes to go around.
