'11 FL DE Aaron Lynch (USF Transfer)

[Bogtrotter07]

UConn, the place Michigan cannot go to die.

Lynch and his wife are no longer husband and wife, per multiple reports.

I am still awaiting a PM on a 2009 arrest report.

Looking back on it, EV did not have all of the tools to succeed at ND or any other major university with which you have to attend classes. I think, the more I read about EV that his decision NOT to come to ND was good for both parties; so he and AL are the opposite, not the same. With AL as someone said earlier he, who was here, decided to leave and it did hurt both parties.

Ya, but Tuitt ran faster on his last year.........

Lynch at home in new environment at USF - ESPN

Lol he didn't even bother to go to the games during his transfer year?? That seems pretty crazy to me. I guess if coach and teammates are fine with it ...

Just another example of his selfishness.

That article is garbage. If you were to give a straight talk translation it's: I got a girl pregnant, had serious maturity/attitude issues, was getting into fights, was a team cancer, was borderline uncoachable, and had alleged other incidents that are pretty horrible... then I left, inquired about coming back, and they said no thanks.

Fin.

but he cut his hair, that's maturity

So is Miley Cyrus then...

 

[Irishokie]

Unless I missed it, I didn't see any mention of trying to get back into ND. But that wouldn't help the image they're trying to paint

nobody at USF is accountable, from things I have read the program is a tire fire and will take Taggert years to fix it.

Benched today against Louisville for a "violation of team rules" to start the game. Finally got a sack down 31 points and had a nice little celebration salute by himself.

 

[Irish YJ]

really sad stuff.
wasted talent is one of the hardest things for me to understand. hope he gets his head on straight.

He's just all about himself. I absolutely cannot stand players who celebrate a play while their team is getting destroyed.

sad thing is the kid will be drafted high based simply off potential. will admit the kid is extremely explosive and we don't have anyone that matches his athleticism up front.

doubt it. He may not even be drafted at all but picked up in free agency because teams want that diamond in the rough without having to pay much for it.

False. Almost every defensive line draft board I've seen he's in every top 10. Most top 5.

I think he's in McShay's Top 5 D Lineman (still).

Does McShay update his draft board on a regular bases? (I could only find his August list on ESPN)

 

[Irish2155]

Would be a big mistake. I hope neither the Dolphins or Colts draft him. Let him go to the Pats.

 

[arrowryan]

Well since mock drafts were brought up. Dane Brugler of CBS sports has Nix going #11 to St. Louis, Tuitt going #20 to Chicago, and Martin going #22 to San Diego

 

[Irish YJ]

He will continue to slide if he doesn't wake up. This latest incident points toward the side he's still in deep sleep. Also, maturity issues will certainly impact several GMs and Coaches willingness. Late first round, early 2nd is my guess after all is said and done unless he screws up more.

thats fine, all that matters is what happens on draft day. I dont see teams being too impressed with Lynch.

 

[military_irish]

I think he will take the path of Vontaze Burfict. He had all the talent in the world but was a head case at Arizona St. He goes undrafted and now starts for the Bengals.


If you think about it Aaron hasn't shown that much in college, we all know he is a beast and has all the talent in the world. No one will ever argue that but as a freshman at Notre Dame he had a good year, which was two years ago. He then sits out a year and this year has shown flashes but at the end of the day nothing consistent and was even benched.

If that constitutes as a top 10 pick or even a first round draft pick then standards in the NFL have dropped exponentially.

I hope the best for the kid but he needs to work on things mentally and off the field before he can succeed in the NFL. Talent alone only takes you so far in the NFL.

 

[Cackalacky]

The Patriots will somehow get him late round or free agent

 

[Irish Insanity]

There is absolutely no way he goes undrafted. None.

 

[Kak7304]

Agreed but he's 3/4 round right now at best.

 

[irishfanjho15]

He looks much smaller than before. I think he lost too much weight. They have him listed at 244 and IMO he's much less violent at the point of attack as he was his frosh year at ND.

 

[dublinirish]

the dude who wrote that ESPN article a few weeks back needs a slapping now

Houston vs USF on ESPN. Houston's first play: Greenberry over the middle for 49 yards.
