'10 FL CB Cody Riggs (Notre Dame Transferee)

[ndcoltsfan2010]

With all the crappy weather and Atlanta Hartsfield and other airports being closed this doesn't surprise me at all. Better luck next week as the temps will be alot warmer.

 

[rikkitikki08]

What can a dollar give you that Bob Sanders cant? 4 quarters.....Bazinga

Ok we can get back to discussing Cody's playing abilities now

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Bob also did backflips off the apex of his garage onto his concrete driveway...

He lived life on cocaine speed.

Umm.....when you're not on the field, you're not much help to your team.....are you????

Ask Danny Spond the same question.

You don't have to tell me how good Bob was. I'm from Indiana.
...

No. It's really not. Breaking out the physics...

F = ma

Newton's second law of motion. Force = mass x acceleration.

The bigger you are and the faster you're going, the more force you bring to the table.

In the late 90's one of the recruiting services actually created a ranking factor, Force, by multiplying weight by 40 speed. By that thinking Rees would have had a higher Force Factor than Golson. After two seasons reality sunk in and they quietly dropped it.

Nobody would want to get trucked by Rees. Career ending force.

QB Force?

 

[irishog77]

I prefer Ashley Force, and certainly Allie Laforce.

Wouldn't Rees's speed be a negative multiplier?

 

[rtrn2glory]

here's the formula:

tommy's Force = 1
________
tommy's weight ^50

edit: that's supposed to be in fraction and exponent form.

QB Force?

LMAO is that real or just an epic troll job?

But it's not like I would expect Golson to lay anyone out either. He's definitely better off now though.

AFAIK it's legit, courtesy of Papa Forcier. Almost enough to make you feel bad for the Forcier boys. That guy's probably one of the worst Little League dad's you could ever meet.

I don't know I met a dad at one of my boys games telling me I was doing something wrong because I said it's a game.
The guy proceeded to tell me how he already had his 8 year old on a special diet and weight lifting program and that the boy would never go pro if I didn't push him.
I was beyond flabbergasted.
I just asked him how bad he sucked at sports that he's trying to live through his son.

Will visit Monday with his family. If this kid is a "take", which it appears he is, and is satisfied with his visit, then IMO expect a decision from him within the week.

[felkey72]

Will he put us to an 85 man roster bearing no medicals or transfers come spring

Yeah. He fills the last open scholarship.

We will see if any more open up.

Any news on if he is in town yet?

It's only temporary, reaching 85 man roster is a myth.

Is it really big news?

 

[IrishLax]

On campus today with stepfather and uncle, looks like odds are in favor of him suiting up for ND this fall and a decision should come soon.

Thanks. Really hoping it works out.

 

[rocket66]

The defense will be very good this year, IMO. Expectations will more realistic and I think most will be pleasantly surprised. I love adding this kid as the secondary will be a strength for the first time in a loooooooong time.

 

[ndcoltsfan2010]

Excellent news for our defense. He should be a leader in our secondary bringing alot of experience.

Irish fans usually tend to overreact about everything. Why there isn't more joy about Cody Riggs' potential addition makes zero sense to me.

Jake Brown‏@Jake_Brown

@KeithArnold One poster on our message board actually questioned why ND would want Riggs on the roster.

 

[Ironman8]

Yeah I think anyone who isn't a fan of this is crazy.

 

[returnofthemack]

Yeah I think anyone who isn't a fan of this is crazy.

I'm subscribed to the college football subreddit, and there were some Florida fans talking about it. The consensus was that he is a very good run-stopper, not as great in coverage. So he's not going to be another shutdown corner for us, but obviously this only helps our secondary. it's not like we're adding a Russell Wilson-type graduate transfer - he's solid, not spectacular.

To be fair, this is also coming from Florida fans, who are used to ridiculous secondary talent.

ND: Not so much.

He will at the very least bring great experience and depth, and at most be an impact player for us. I'm super excited for this.
