Lastly, I have to get this off my chest:
I coined "Anal Zone."
But I have since watched the kid and his emotions and the way he plays football. Some kids are emotional; nay, fragile. But he played on the gridiron with these emotions and harnessed positive potential from them.
Believe it or not, gentlemen, he was Irish through and through.
He's 18. All of these young men could die for our country but that doesn't make them sound decision makers.
Kelly truly blew the goat on timing with this situation. He's a good coach and he's got what it takes. We'll make the big show again with him.
But timing is everything and losing Alex Anal Zone is a loss. For you, for him, for me, and for ND.
He'll have a great career.
What we don't know is behind the scenes with the reasons things happened the way they did.
But I can assure you, burying your head in a hole like a cartoon ostrich under stress is not PLACT...
No one person is greater than ND.
We will reclaim our spot.
And we are in the best position we've been in since 1988.
Get your head up and stay tuned. Nut up. Strap in. And relax.
We got this sh!t.
