I'm glad we landed Wimbush and I think he'll be great, but if things went the staff's way, Barnett would still be our QB.


Did you see the SMC - Santiago game 'nuke? I'm not sure if ND really cares about Barnett over Wimbush or vice versa but after seeing Costello play twice this year, I bet they'd take him over both of them and a truckload of communion wafers. Kid is money.

Costello is a great player but its important to point out that ND has had him on campus and still hasn't offered and I don't think they plan on it at this point. So, not sure what your saying is very accurate in that regard.

That's a fair response. They are after Henry instead. Costello is the best QB I've seen this year and that includes Henry, Barnett, Rosen, Waller, White, Darnold and Town. To be honest, besides Rosen, it hasn't been close.

As a implied comparison, a truckload of communion wafers seems out of context and does not come off as being very imaginative or appropriate. It's a faulty use of hyperbole, especially at a Catholic University. But, kid is money works.

Sorry, I'm sure you meant well but you lost me at the a v. an miscue.

I don't think Costello fits what ND wants to do

If Kiel was a fit, Costello would fit also. I saw Kiel play in high school... they look a lot alike.

I'm not complaining, I'll be thrilled if Zaire, Kizer, Wimbush and Henry are all on the roster in '16.

Also, they offered Eason who is a traditional pocket / pro style QB.

I think he would have been just fine at ND and probably could have been to Zaire what Mirer was to Rice. (If he could have beat out Kizer and Wimbush)

Happy to report the local boys from JSerra stomped Barnett and Santiago tonight 55-16. Strange when you have to go to the SEC to have a chance to win.

Meet Alabama QB Blake Barnett's pro surfer girlfriend | FOX Sports

Now I like him even less.

EDIT: I just checked out her instagram and have a funny story. So I went to the beach a few weeks ago with the lady friend and we were sitting down by the water reading. These three girls keep walking by and they are drop dead gorgeous. Long story short, she caught me checking them out and got pissy... turns out it was Blake Barnett's girlfriend.

I just read that she's 16 years old (!!!!!!!), I would've sworn she was at least 21 when I saw her.

Yeah, she doesn't look 16, and you'd think she's at least 18 if he's a freshman at 'Bama and they're doing this thing long distance.

She might be 18, actually. Website says she was 16 in April of 2014. At the very least she's currently a Senior in high school.

Pretty sure for most (if not all states) that it's legal if the relationship started when both were minors. Flake probably started dating here in high school, so it'd most likely be legit.

Blake looks like the bully in "Christmas Story"...shocked he can pull like that. Being a Five-star recruit QB has it's advantages.

I wish we could be talking about how he has looked in camp, and if he is picking up BK's offense.

dime piece...if she is of age. If not then give her a couple more ice cream seasons, then she'll be a dime piece. ;)

Hopefully it's something like he's allergic to grits or bbq.

Get well soon Blake.

*btw... I bet he transfers back to SC after the new coach is named.

It was such a stupid move on his part to go to Bama in the first place. He's a DT QB who'd most likely be starting at Oregon right now.
