I think it's about time someone exhibited a little swagger. I took it as though he's so anxious, amped, and excited that he's willing (and able) to do a lot of things. Call it confidence. I recognize that there is a difference between saying it and actually doing but the kid is exploding with enthusiasm. I like it.

When he scores his first TD and gets a 15 yard penalty, let's give him a break. I fully expect him to either A) start crying B) start doing pushup or C) flex.

Lol.

So you fully expect one of those....which one are you hoping for?

Amir is going to have to be playing to be tired. Interesting that he's expected to play by those in the program this year.

Not gonna bode well for him.

This is not Kelly type stuff.

He will be in trouble. Guaranteed.

Lol what did he say? He is more explosive and will be returning kicks? Now he's not an RKG, Notre Dame man or a big skill type player or a Kelly guy?

So sick of this that's why I liked having guys like Lynch and Niklas who had an edge to them and are different you need those guys on a football team.

+1.

I want Malik saying he expects to the starter, I want Bryant to tell me he's going to be the best return man since Rocket, and so on. I don't get this seen and not hard bullshit the ND fan base seems to want. Give me
some dudes with some damn fire and some attitude

I think he means how Kelly does not like giving out team info like injury status etc. I alluded to it above as well.

Does it really matter who is catching the punts? No one has actually returned punts in years. I am pretty sure BK is cool with it.

Is Greg Bryant the most hyped player who has never done a damn thing? I can't remember a player who has had as much around him as Greg has.

Ron Powlus had a ton, like 2 Hiesmans worth before he even set foot on campus.

I know Clausen did too. But I mean the kid has had 2 carries and some ND fans think he's the greatest thing since sliced bread. I won't name any names

Do you remember when Clausen was playing out-freaking-standing his junior year and people wanted him to be benched for Crist because "he's the future"?

Fans are stupid. The good news is it's not limited to ND fans.

5 Star redshirt RB, coaches rave about him, we appear to have a fully stocked offensive line and a mobile QB...yeah, I can't see why anyone would be excited about him.

Yeah, when I think about what this team needs, it's more immature players with little work ethic and even worse emotional control, as well as guys who leave early before fully realizing their potential. You nailed it. That's exactly what the 2012 team had and why they were so successful.

I'm not saying we need a bunch of those kids but every team needs them. Look at all the teams who are in the top 10 they all have some players with edges to them. I'm not saying let's have a team with a bunch of punks but we do need some bad asses on this team. Kelly has brought in some of these kids and have turned some of them around and some have failed.

Humbleness and his comments aren't in alignment.

Or maybe I'm just weird.

I dunno.

(You're not really a tampon string.) I heart you. Koontah Kentay.

I watched the interview and he was in no way boisterous or arrogant...I don't even know how the hell you could read his words and make them out to be something negative.

He said that he rooted for his teammates and was happy for their success and that he busted his ass so he can see the field this year.

How that is arrogant or boisterous is beyond me, but some assholes always need to be negative, so carry on I guess.

Exactly it's people making comments without hearing the interview or actually knowing the kid personally making assumptions behind a keyboard. It's good stuff

Bryant is at ND and has a lot to prove in his eyes and in the eyes of the fans.
From what I can gather from both Greg and coaches is that he is out there busting his ass in practice (BK said he needs to be held back at times because he is too amped) to make an impact on the 2014-2015 ND football season.
Give the kid a break, sit back and watch him be an explosive weapon for the IRISH!!!
