Knight is just so frustrating to watch. I don't think he knows that passing is an option.

The transition offense and defense have been pretty damn good. Kinda surprising.

Grant putting the team on his back. Sherman has no hands and plays the softest defense of all time. This one will go down to the wire.

Finally a decent win. Hopefully we can shock the world against OSU to salvage this out of conference schedule.

Someone needs to sit down with Brey and ask 2 questions:

1.) What the *#$! is the philosophy in the 2-3? (I've never seen a 2-3 zone try to FORCE the ball to the foul line, especially when the guy in the center position is basically a non-factor on defense).

2.) You know we're awful at it, right?

I'm trying not to be a Debbie downer after a good win, but this team could actually be pretty good.

But, in my opinion, Brey is ruining Zach Auguste. At this point, he's just trying SOOO hard to play well, and it shows. And then, when he makes the same mistake an upper classmen makes 15 times a game, he gets pulled. He is by FAR (and it's really not even close) our best defensive presence on the inside. We need him for a run. You can't keep killing the kidsd confidence, having him look over his shoulder after he makes a mistake.

Finally, the last 3 games are the worst I can remember from Eric Atkins I've seen in 3 years. Nice heady foul on the big at the end of the game, but he's been bad.

We're 8-3 (with 2 bad losses, I know), with a ton of room to grow. We could still pull this out and make a run.

Not directly related to ND BB but Vitale has an ND connection and it's BB, so:

Big win over the Hoosiers today. Tom Crean is the worst when it comes to shaking hands after a loss.

Huge game tonight. I would do unspeakable things for us to win because I can rub it in all my OSU friends faces.

Well there's the season...


A Statement From Jerian Grant - UND.COM - University of Notre Dame Official Athletic Site

To the Notre Dame Community:

It is with regret and sorrow that I inform you that I am no longer enrolled at the University of Notre Dame due to an academic matter that I did not handle properly. As a result, I am no longer part of the basketball program and will not be on the court competing with my teammates for the remainder of the 2013-14 season.

I take full responsibility for my lack of good judgment and the poor decision that I made. I have no one to blame but myself for the situation. I know and understand the expectations that go with being a student at Notre Dame and I did not live up to those standards.

My parents have always stressed the importance of a great education and I was on schedule to graduate in May 2014 with my degree in sociology from the College of Arts and Letters. Upon graduation from DeMatha Catholic High School, my selection of Notre Dame was more than just a basketball decision. I made the choice to be a student-athlete at this University because of the impact a Notre Dame education and degree would have on my professional career.

Most importantly, I have established myself as a leader on the basketball team and this situation significantly impacts my teammates and coaches. They have been such an integral part of my life since coming to Notre Dame. I was looking forward to being in the lineup when our team started play in the Atlantic Coast Conference. I apologize to them publicly and regret that I will not be there with and for them in the upcoming months, but I am confident that they will have great success for the remainder of the season.

It is my full intention to return to Notre Dame as soon as possible following the 2014 spring semester. I intend to do whatever it takes to earn my degree and finish out my college basketball career here. I understand that there is a process that I must go through in order to come back to school and I will be patient with that process.

As I mentioned at the start of this letter, I take full responsibility for my action. I promise that when I return, I will be a better student and teammate. I want to thank all of those associated with Notre Dame for their support. I love this school, my coaches and teammates and I look forward to reengaging as an active and positive student and athlete at Notre Dame.
