Basically Sluhs uncle Gary Pinknell came on CFB daily today and said Maty choose to go to Mizzou over ND and Michigan and I busted out laughing. Just couldn't get my gif to work.

Mauk obviously has a bright future ahead of him at Core 6 where claiming ND offers you never had is obligatory on your resume. Although at least Mauk had legit ND interest for awhile and a verbal offer.

At least he probably wouldn't have transferred away

Man, I would love love LOVE for someone to interview Gunner and ask him on-camera if he regrets transferring. Of course he would deny it, but he'd probably squirm a little while he lied, and that would be fun to watch.

Throwing bombs on ropes against UF. 2/2 for like 60 yards and a TD on the first drive.

Damn I wish we would have gotten this kid. Especially as much as Tommy has been throwing this year... Well if you call that throwing. Anyways Tommy has another opportunity to get things done tonight. Here's to what if!

True or false: he would be starting this year if we had taken him in 2012? I say true.

i say true as well...could run a very similar style to what we ran with golson. would have been huge to have against michigan so they couldn't drop 8 in coverage.

True of False, instead of taking Mauk, ND took the #1 QB in that class?

I haven't seen anything from Keil yet, but Mauk played very very well. Rankings mean almost nothing after they get on campus.

Don't know about that. Gunner was straight scout team his first year and I heard nothing but bad reports relative to what Malik Zaire has looked likeas a freshman. Don't know if Gunner could've beaten out Hendrix, much less Rees.

False. Winston was #1 right? And we all know that ND originally looked to pass on a QB in '12 and that they weren't enamored with any QBs in the class, which means they weren't really thrilled with Kiel or anyone else they could get initially.

I think after watching Barnett's film, he reminds me a lot of Mauk if he were to increase his arm strength. Both are deceptively fast and smooth runners.

Not according to Rivals.

Ok? On the industry wide composite Winston was 15th and Kiel was 27th.

This is so dumb, the point I was like trying to make was that no one really wanted Mauk because he was short, because his numbers were inflated because of the way his dad runs the offense, and because he would be a cancer on the team with his dad calling Kelly every night. We all wanted Kiel and got him so what is the point in saying "True or false, this player, that no one really wanted would be starting?"

? Why not just say that then? Instead you said something about the #1 QB so I just pointed out that Winston was regarded as better. I'm not a mind reader.

And considering we had a 336 post long thread where MANY people said they'd rather have Mauk how on earth can you say that "no one really wanted Mauk?" There were a lot of people that thought he was a better fit for a spread and liked his superior athleticism.

No, the point is that not everyone wanted Kiel and it was one of the more evenly debated topics ever on this board............ and even if everyone did want Kiel, we constantly track how other Notre Dame targets/former commits pan out and hypothesize on how they would've done at ND.

I have literally no idea why you took offense to such an innocuous question.

We should ressurect the Mauk vs Kiel thread.

Seek out the Mauk boys.

It was tough to listen to them talk about Mauk and how well he's doing on Gameday this morning, knowing that he could be starring for the Irish right now. Gah.
