Anyone else see Lane Kiffin at the PAC 12 media day? Basically gave a recruiting pitch for Silas Redd saying that RB was there biggest position of concern and that they need to develop there.

Yup...also said that Nelson Agholar (who has been killing it in 7 0n 7's as a wideout - rrrrrggg) will start off fall camp as a RB due to low numbers there. Even USC reporters are saying that Kiffy-boy said it on purpose for Redd...

I'm not sure I completely agree with the option to give players the ability to transfer. Yes the current players and commitments are at a disadvantage now after this punishment, but IMO, whether this molestation was made aware at the time they commited or not, they still put their faith and commitment into the school. Yes PSU let them down and are now paying for it, and most peoples response is; "why should the current players be punished for the actions of the coaches and the faculty". My thought is, these players trusted these same coaches and beleived in what they were being told, IMO they should have to stay and suffer the consequences atleast for this year, atleast that would be fair to the Univ as well. It's the players fault and decision to choose PSU, they signed their LOI and they should have to stick by it,if they don't want to be apart of PSU anymore, then transfer and sit out like every other transfer request, you don't see O'Brien jumping ship, even though I'm sure if it didn't hurt his rep, he would.

That's literally the dumbest thing I've read in a long time.

Matt McGloin grew up a hardcore Notre Dame fan. I can vouch for this. His whole family were hardcore ND fans until he walked on at PSU. I don't think he'd solve our QB problems but it would be nice to see a West Sider at ND.

I don't see anything wrong with it. It's fact, and he's responsible for pitching.... didn't knwo that about Nelson.

Just got a tweet from John Infante retweeted by Eric Hansen:

USC (and other sanctioned schools) may NOT exceed scholarship limits to accept Penn State transfers

As it should be too. Would have been extremely hypocritical to let schools under probation take advantage of the PSU situation to better their football team.

No players that are currently on their roster. They are really not any players that would be a significant upgrade to ND's current team. Why waste the scholarship?

Because you are not wasting scholarships. They are free. (Above the 85 limit).

Free other than they have to pay the $40,000 for the scholarship and if the athlete they get is a junior or below, it will count against them the following year. It is a waste of a scholarship if you ask me. The only player I would want is a senior CB or WR with plenty of experience. They have had terrible recruiting classes as of late. I also consider it a waste of a schollie. Now some of their 2013 recruits, that is a different story.

First I heard this...


@GrantlandX: I know that ND has interest in pursuing PSU senior WR Justin Brown, but I wish they would go after some of those stud LBers to pair with #5

Yeah it would be sweet if Khari Fortt came here and took over the Will. I am not not getting my hopes up though.

Justin Brown would probably start for us. Very solid receiver.
