Wear a Lei for Manti this saturday

[arrowryan]

The support Manti has from Notre Dame and Notre Dame fans is unreal. I have never seen anything like this before

 

[Kaneyoufeelit]

This is awesome! I can't wait to see it on TV.

Can't wait to see him Lei out Denard.

 

[BleedBlueGold]

Sounds like this has gained a lot of traction if WSBT and even Budweiser are getting involved. I like it!

 

[dshans]

I'd love to see the team, coaches, cheerleaders and students "get their lei on" for the pep rally. The band, the Irish Guard, Medics on the sideline (I'm lookin' at YOU, K1ssme) all lei-ed at the game would would be sweet.

Let the lei-ing begin!

 

[irishpat183]

I'll be wearing one in my living room. That's the best I can do.


Great to see him being supported by the university and students.

He's a world class guy and, despite personal loss, has put the team above everything.

Guys like that really don't exist anymore. ND is lucky.

 

[Chris P. Bacon]

Wow, 10,000 plus everyone else passing them out, I may not need to get one anymore, but I guess you can't wear too many of them. So pumped for this game this weekend, I think the fan support is going to push our players to just maul MICH this weekend. GO IRISH!

 

[NDTH91]

This is what Notre Dame is all about. Watching this school (and right now, this team) function as a family is beautiful. We are ND.

Ahhh.....I love the way the NCAA takes such a good thing and ruins it for everyone.

But stolen laptops? No biggie.

Ahhh.....I love the way the NCAA takes such a good thing and ruins it for everyone.

Along with...

Over-signing

Manipulating scholarships by asking kids to transfer, pulling one year schollies, medical red-shirts, and grey-shirts.

Fixing grades for athletes in classes (looking at you, UNC)

Trent Richardson getting a speeding ticket in a 2011 Yukon Denali that was in his name last fall while being at Bama. Trent Richardson's 2011 Yukon With Nice Rims -- Nothing To See Here : Outkick The Coverage

and that's just in football....don't even get me started on Calipari

Boom! Right in the kisser of Cam Fig Newton.

ALSO DON'T GIVE ONE TO A RECRUIT.

Why not? It's probably a secondary violation yes, but we all know how seriously the NCAA takes those.

 

[phgreek]

It says strand is 20" in length. That's more like a necklace. wtf?

...with ya there...how bout some for the 18"+ neck guys???

I know compliance is just trying to do their job...but COME-THE-FVCK-ON...no one intends to profit here...its a tribute to one of our own...no one here even mentioned selling ****...this bullshiit.

Not to get you started, but I don't see how this is legal:

[IndyIrishFan1]

I'm not surprised. NCAA being the NCAA.

 

[irishfanjho15]

Not to get you started, but I don't see how this is legal:

No place like home: UK's new gold standard in housing - CoachCal.com

Because most schools are about athletes and very few are about student-athletes.

Actually some groups of people on twitter were talking about selling them for $1 each, which you can, they just cant say anything about Manti on them. ND Compliance Dept. is just trying to follow the rules.

 

[BobD]

Is it wrong that I think it would be really cool if someone figured out a way to put a lei on Touchdown Jesus?

 

[Polish Leppy 22]

Hahahaha...I wonder how the priests would feel about that

 

[EddytoNow]

Who cares what the priests think. Jesus would approve. Manti embodies the Christian ethic of putting others before oneself.

 

[irishog77]

Any of our uniform pic guys or somebody able to work up some sort of ND picture with a lei? Something to put up as cover photo or profile pic on facebook type of thing.

 

[loomis41973]

Managed to get 200 more to pass out from a place in Michigan City.

Let's do this!!

I got the pic below from the FB page. Not really what you're asking for, but...

I'm probably going to wear one under my shirt at work on Sat. night.

 

[HawaiianIrish]

God this is why I love ND...

[BGIF]

Hahahaha...I wonder how the priests would feel about that
