As OMM pointed out, it is only a issue b/c of who he represents. Since that institution represents everything contrary to what she does, it becomes a PR issue.

Is it fair....no.

Actually I'd say it's very fair. Notre Dame is a private institution. If Brent didn't want to deal with this there are plenty of non-religious based colleges he could've attended. It's inconvenient to his wants, but it's not unfair.

There are two sides to the pornography debate and it isn't ND's job to police a student for simply being in the presence of an adult actress. In fact, I think it would be incredibly unjust if JB were disciplined for this by the university.

Hey if i was a recruit i'd be like "fuck yes, i'm going there".

Were this a known quantity/predilection before admission, I'm pretty damn sure he wouldn't be a student at ND now.

Consorting with a pornster, in and of itself, is not necessarily a death knell. Broadcasting said behavior may well be. If Mom and Dad puff up their chests and declare "That's Our Boy" it could become a matter of the university taking the helm and correcting a misguided course.

I had the benefit of attending ND at its most liberal, when its choice was to turn a relative blind eye to weed and alcohol. I kinda fucking doubt that this behavior would have passed even the most lax muster.

It's not just an ND "thing."

And that's where it will end IMO. The University has to let this one go, until the VIDEO goes viral...

No one has responded to my sort of serious hot take...

Would anyone have the same reaction if Brent was in the exact same pictures with Jennifer Aniston instead of a porn star?

The answer is no.

Yes and No. IE would be giving the internet high five to JB because of who she is, but there wouldn't be the virtue discussion because Jennifer Aniston isn't a porn star who publicly tells the world she is screwing anyone who breathes.

whether that would be right or wrong is immaterial to the fact the simply appearing to have spent the night with a porn star is bad PR for ND. As others have pointed out, ND sells itself to parents and kids as being different. Things like this are just more ammo to prove ND isn't.

The decisions made by one student are inconsequential to that sales pitch, especially since the actions in question were over break and occurred about 1500 miles from campus.

If I were a parent (and an image-concerned ND administrator), I'd be much more concerned about the rumors of a sex for papers scandal. Especially since ND has declined to formally release the results of their lengthy internal investigation.

Where this happened is inconsequential.....besides, you think this little episode helps combat the sex for papers issue? If anything, it helps stir the pot again.

The sociologist in me loves this site. There are some guys here that go from one end of the spectrum to the other when it comes to cheating, war, politics , screwing strippers and personal and institutional responsibility. Each argument they make on the individual topics is excellent but when you add them up, you come up with... nah, I'm not gonna call anyone out.

No admission, no video, no vajayjay swab, no story.

Leave it to you dolts to ruin a fun topic.

I never said it "combats" the sex for papers issue, just that it is completely pales in comparison.

The point is this is a non-issue. People are overreacting because of the chosen profession of the person he is with. Who the hell cares.

Clearly this is not a non-issue. Should it be? Who the hell cares?

Well, there are many who feel it should be an issue. Well, there are many who DO care.

Sweet Bejeezus, a full fledged football stud should have no trouble finding all the poontang he can. He may have to rut around off campus, but to fall prey to PR seeking, aging pro, with a much poked vag-vag is pathetic. Not at all "Epic."

Displaying the "exploits" world wide is weak. (should that read "weak sauce?")

Should ND kick his ass to the curb I would have no qualms.

I would agree with you if it were just "being in the presence of an adult actress." Isn't there a clear inference that he was having sex with an adult actress, based on the picture of the two of them in bed? I may have missed something; haven't been on the board that much today. But that would be the issue.

Wikipedia states 445 films she has *starred* in. Body is hot, but mouth is stretched out (I wonder how?) and I would be worrying which guy I was tasting every time I kissed her. Unless JB is hung like a horse it has to be the equivalent of throwing a banana down a hallway...a warm pale of water...etc. He could do better than a porn star.

Literally no one cares except for the humor of it outside of ND fans. This whole thread is an overreaction, talking about how it affects the image of the school. No one will remember or care about this by the time he's actually on the field.

No you are missing the issue. He could be subject to school discipline for this, to the extent he had sex with a porn star.

Like they've said, we have had players who have had kids out of wedlock while they were here. They aren't going to do anything.

Without going through a litany of adverbs, this thread is NOT an overreaction. It is a "solid" representation of the many.

While positive performance on the field may well trump questionable performance off the field in some exam, this is not necessarily a raison d'etre at Notre Dame..

You guys are getting out of hand with this stuff. The school isn't going to do jack about this, nor should they. As mentioned above, there have been a ton of guys over the years on this team with kids. They weren't created from immaculate conception.

This is really a non story on the disciplinary front.

Number 7 or 8 in the country.

6-1 Record

Our one loss was a war with a controversial ending against the reigning NC.

Our QB is said to be number 3 in the Heisman race right now.

We expelled 5 of our players for academic violations.......

And one is sleeping with a porn star!

Winning!
