This is what I hate though.

Yes, students must be accountable for their actions.

But the school must also be accountable for their actions. The students deserve a zero on their assignment or expulsion or whatever... they also deserve to have a resolution in a timely fashion.

Consider the fact that, even just as normal students, they're 4+ weeks into classes and might be forced to drop out now for the semester and get no credit for the work they've done/be allowed to complete their credits. How absolutely absurd is that?

Pretty much all of this.

There is absolutely no reason why they shouldn't have had their hearings and punishments (if any) published by now. Don't feed me any PDF document bullshit either. Either they got something on them or they don't. Fucking teleconference if school isn't in session. These guys absolutely have priority over regular students and should be handled in a timely fashion.

This is an absolute travesty that could've been avoided. Should have been avoided and I hope Phillip Daniels continues to hammer the school.

Ross' dad:

I also want to know if Notre Dame can be physical and that comes with the type of recruiting they do. It doesn’t matter if a team gets big names and they aren’t physical. I don’t think any of us want to see the Notre Dame-Alabama game again. You have to get talent and physical kids. Everyone can’t be 5-foot-8.

Anyone Carr to venture WTF that's supposed to mean???

Sounds like he won't go to a place that looks outmatched talent wise. So if we murder SC...

I think he is dogging the current crop. And i think 5'10" is a bit of a "stretch" for Nico. I got to see Shaun play earlier this season and hie has great closing speed and fantastic footwork. It was a little difficult though because the other team was obviously avoiding him.

I just took at as he is saying get big skill in the program. I think BK has down the best job of that at ND since the days of Holtz.

I read it as my son isn't going somewhere that's not already talented and he wants to be part of a highly rated class. Winning will help with this.

Ross' team, Riverside Poly won in a shootout against Moreno Valley Rancho Verde and #8 DT-QB Sheriron Jones who's verballed to Florida. That one snuck under my radar. Would like to know how they did head to head.

Riverside Poly is 8-0 but doesn't play any of the heavy hitters in the area.

Anyone from the IE have a report on Ross?

*IE as in Inland Empire this time.

Not much. Sounds like Oklahoma and Notre Dame visits are definite, as well as USC after the season.

Might visits Oregon and/or Ohio State too.

References 'God' like 3 times FWIW, but he had to most to say about USC. I think he's a Trojan.

He may be an SC lean but since Gorney did the interview, it's gonna have a California bias in the questions and the editing. Had Brown done the interview, that would have been a different story. Who knows about Ross but I have a feeling that ND is going to get either him, Marshall or Fitzpatrick. ND's going to be a trendy pick for a high 4 / 5 star CB this year and probably the best situation at a big time program where they can get meaningful minutes their freshman year.

Iman Marshall come on down!

Weird, since I thought we had no shot at Marshall, and a pretty good shot at Ross. Now it seems like the opposite.

Well he did spend 3-4 days on campus over the summer. A trip he made on his own dime. He didn't do that at too many schools if any. Now it seems as the season has wore on his local influence has started to take center stage but we still get our OV.

I literally take whatever you say and assume the opposite. You simply cannot be taken seriously.

That's my point. He came and spent time, but I never saw anything that made me think this could turn out good. Hope I'm wrong.
