I thought it was a LB (#30) did they score 2 TDs with defensive players?? Maybe they should leave Luatua alone and go after a real RB...

That Myles kid (the LB) has been rushing for them for a while. Actually quite well. Mora says he's a stud LB but he's an even better RB. They're going to figure out how to use him in the offseason. Myles did score a rushing TD yesterday, but so did Eddie; a 1 yard scamper.

UCLA have been using Defensive players on offense all season, one of their D-ends (the white guy) has caught a few TD's already.

Yeah, because UCLA didn't get beat worse by Stanford, have a comparable record, worse quality wins... and ND has been decimated by injuries and is playing with a backup QB that doesn't fit what we want to do.

Some people are just completely devoid of perspective. We outperformed the spread by 10 points and were an underthrown ball away from playing a top team even for 4 quarters.

Agree 1000%.

I dunno. This kid feels kinda like one of those where if he was really enthusiastic about Notre Dame, he would have committed by now. It's not like he just discovered the place. We've been "in the lead" for months. Something's holding him back, and maybe better for all involved if he decides that now rather than in a year or two.
If he gets his head on straight, great. Welcome aboard. But if he wants to go somewhere else, at this point that's fine too. We've got plenty of tight ends.

It does seem like that, and I don't know what game he's playing, but the BGI guys said last week in TV that Luatua will be a member of ND's class come signing day, whether he commits to Denbrock this week, waits till his AA game or waits till signing day. Not sure why he's taking so long to announce but they're not worried about it so I'm not either.

Well he's going to both USC and UCLA, because his tweets are a good indicator of his choice in school. I assume he'll have a fake mustache and a wig for when he's at USC. Lyler Tuatua.

Not all kids are stupid. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if he's just having a little fun with Twitter.

Visit went great. Announcement likely to come in the next two weeks. Steve and Tom will be shocked if he goes anywhere but ND.
