All of these scenarios are why I pump continuously for a DT. But deep in my heart I know we're not going to get one. So I change my hopes: I hope instead for us to show an utterly kick@ss defensive line this season.

If we do, and if we look like a "winner" on the field, maybe then the Staff can get another Big Lou in the 2014 cycle. A great NT doesn't want to go somewhere where he has to do all the work in the meathouse with little support, AND not win games. We need to develop a "new" tradition of killer D-Lines playing on double-diget win teams. I'll bet that really good DT at Purdue wouldn't mind playing with Tuitt and KLM and Day right now. And winning a bunch of games.

Big Lou is a great gem and a real rarity for us; we were REALLY lucky that he wanted to come to Notre Dame even though we had no appointed head coach at the time. THAT was a miracle.

Did i notice some emotion in that post OMM? Haha-j/k-usually your so rational.

Seacláid na hÉireann (Irish Chocolate) had stats that equaled Short, but he also had two knocked down passes. Think about it. People are now calling short a first round draft choice!

Nix might be a 1st round pick after this year if he keeps it up. I just hope he stays after this year and gets his degree.

FYI, you can go to the NFL as a RS sophomore. As long as you've been in college for 3 years. Pretty sure Michael Crabtree was a RS SO when he left.

Well duh...the rule is 3 years out of high school. I just don't see him leaving that early without a degree.

I think a lot of this speculation can be put to bed if we show improvement on the field, and win games. If we show that we have the potential to be a "great" team next year, I believe that both Cierre and Irish Chocolate return. If we have a devastating end to this season, and take a step back as a program, then they both leave. Just my opinion.

@IrishChocolate9: Relevant on the field or in the classroom? In a perfect world both but when it all comes down to it i choose the classroom.

Watching the condensed game on YouTube heard Mayock refer to him as Irish Chocolate when he made a play to start the second half. Epic.
