NFL? Man, I am not sure what they feed these boys at the training table...

Depth Charts.

 

[Pennick44]

This will result in 3 more transfers. As well as, some bad recruiting talk in California--that we don't need.

Ga3, his bro, and jalen will all transfer IMO.

We can only hope.

 

[SoJerseyIrish]

His best runs were typically from the jet sweep where he had picked up some steam and had open space. His best bet in the pros is as a returner or possibly turning into a wide out.

He had hands of stone.......I don't see WR as a viable option.

Disappointed in the decision and I hope he reconsiders but there seems to be a rift between ND and the Atkinson's.

 

[irishff1014]

See Florida.

That's because they were bad this year and Don't like the coach not really the same deal unless there is info that we don't know about.

 

[Cackalacky]

What I really don't like it starts the off season on a negative note. Ok, the Win starts it on a positive note.

But, thanks To BK and the NFL rumors here goes the negatives on our program. And then, more and more and more transfers. YOu know that other programs use this against us.

I hear people say that all schools have transfers. But, do they have as many as us? Does any other schools lose more 4 and 5 star players? I don't care the reason, transfers are transfers. Lynch, Neal, Prestwood, Eddie, Gunner, Fergy, Welch, Hendrix, on and and on. That is a lot.

I hope the studs that came here last year, and the ones that will come in this year will really help bring some positives. Right now we need that after the transfers/BK NFL rumors/Diaco Loss/and o OC too.

Ok, time to hear some good stuff. Go Irish

I mean this in the best possible way:
Every time I read one of you posts I can't help but think of Gollum talking to himself.

Huh?

 

[aubeirish]

it's a stupid rule...i'm just going to leave it at that...

How is it a stupid rule? You can't leave your phone for 30 mins and enjoy a meal with your brothers. It's a great lack of respect. People that text when others are talking is a lack of respect. It as simple as that.

Agree. And whether or not it's a stupid rule it is still a rule nonetheless.

Haha, love that movie.

 

[Fbolt]

Interesting situation that is getting more terrible by the minute due to a complete lack of maturity.

Agreed. But guess what? Kelly vs. the whole Atkinson clan, guess who comes out on top?

You still earn a Grammar Hammer "Huh?" Your edit didn't go far enough to clarify matters.

I should have used itallics

 

[dshans]

ACK!

 

[philipm31]

me too

 

[Rhode Irish]

i could see him landing in plenty of franchises.. san fran, oakland, , KC, STL, PHI, WASH, INDY, DEN, CLE, or even cincy


i can tell you he wont end up in GB, chi, dallas, Minny, Buf, NE, Mia, Jax, SD, ATL, NOLA, Hou, DET,.... thats for damn sure, book it.

I am getting a brain cramp trying to figure out the riddle here. What do these groups of franchises have in common?

NOTHING, except at GA3 is so terrible that he won't be on any of them.

Terrible attitude, immature and cannot play a skill position at an elite level.

He is done.

 

[EddytoNow]

This sounds like a situation that has evolved over time with most of the recent events resulting from GA's inability to lock down the starting running back role. His lack of production carrying the ball and his inability to catch passes resulted in more and more carries for TF and fewer and fewer opportunities for George. The attitude of the Atkinson family has soured as a direct result of GA's diminishing role on the team and Josh Atkinson's inability to move up the depth chart at either DB or WR.

The situation looks bleak for either of the Atkinson twins to play a significant role on the team in 2014. George could be relegated to 3rd or even 4th string on the depth chart and Josh is likely to see action only on special teams.

George Atkinson II (the father) became frustrated with the situation and sounded off. Everything else is the Atkinson family circling the wagons to protect their own. George pushed the envelope by violating a team rule and received the appropriate punishment. I'd be surprised to see either Atkinson on the team next fall.

My prediction is they both sacrifice a Notre Dame degree rather than accept the fact that neither will be playing in the NFL with any type of significant role.

Yeah, and that just goes to show you how DUMB they are.

Anyone in that family that thinks that they are LEGITIMATE NFL talents has not been paying attention. With as horrible as Jackson has been on the back end, if Josh cannot crack the 2 deep at that position, that just tells you how bad the coaches think Josh is.

Sacrificing a ND degree for 3 or 4 year "career" in the NFL is just stupid.

 

[Pachuco]

This shit is turning ugly fast, and by ugly, I mean the posting in this thread.

GAIII is still with the team, right?

I'm curious. Exactly which one of the Atkinsons pissed in your Cheerios. Jesus.

Seriously. Look no further than the above two quotes...

There must be more going on with GAIII than has been made public. When asked if George's suspension would affect his future and the decision he (George) is making, Kelly said he hasn't made that decision. Umm ... what. Is that to imply that George might not be invited back?

I'm with Lax. He was not suspended for texting.

 

[GBdomer]

There has got to me more to this story. It seems to be on par with his dads comments.

 

[GreenSox04]

Answer: the franchises he won't be going to would require him to go north or south.


Don't nit pick and ruin my fun. I guesstimated using general directions from south bend. Let me have my fun.
