Shame. He still reps ND hard, but I think he does like to stir the pot sometimes.

Same. Had to be done. You can’t have someone involved who is simultaneously stirring the pot against the university the IPC claims to support.
How was he stirring the pot against the university
GATTACA!

I remember him publicly criticizing how the staff handled Moore.

He made a lot of comments to Novosad that portrayed the program in a bad light and also simply weren’t true. He’s made other comments that make ND seem like they have a losing history. His job isn’t to be objective- he is working for an NIL fund. Pump all the sunshine.
Agreed I haven’t seem or heard any of the IPC material so in that setting his job is 100% to be the slap happy ambassador and recruit his ass off. Would be in infuriating if anything he did in that IPC setting left a bad taste in a recruits mouth.
I’m really interested in seeing how this plays out over the next week.
Malik does his podcast with Shaun Davis.
Driskell loves him some Malik, and honestly, is VERY biased towards Malik because Malik always talked to him.
But both Shaun & Driskell have talked about IPC doing good work getting ND players compensated.
So I wonder if they turn on IPC now?
Also, does this affect the IPC interview with Wingo? LOL

It’ll be interesting to read the recap of Driskell’s reaction.

I was a big Malik fan, and still am even if he's been a bonehead about stirring the pot...but yeah, dunno how you criticize the staff for their handling of Moore. They did everything they could, in no scenario was it wrong to pull the trigger on Carr. If anything it called Moore's bluff and exposed the truth.

Pot stirring in a dull moment, and not knowing where to put this.
This has maybe been mentioned before somewhere on IE. The OSU DA came out with the idea of complete separation of "college" sports from the actual colleges the other day. This melded "nicely" with the concept being talked about all over as to athletes, particularly in football, being "employees." So my thinking about a poorly thought-about (if at all) consequence is:
Employees in my experience can be fired. Why? all sorts of reasons, but mainly because "management" assesses them as not doing their jobs. And it's not JUST not doing their jobs, but not doing their jobs well enough according to the employer. In short, they can be pink-slipped at any time, and the employer rarely has to explain anything or care.
Say you're Saban or Smart or Fisher. You have twenty guys (or more) on your 85-man roster that you don't think will hack it at the level you want. Fire them. Get those "scholarship" numbers wide open (That number will be some Football Association roster limit agreed upon by teams in the new association.). Bring in a whole pair of teams each year (your firings plus your "graduates" --- a strange term in this new world; maybe we should just label it all "attrition") to bolster your holdover starters and prime back-ups. Bring on the Recruits, transfers, no difference ... you're paying them all top dollar anyway. They don't work out? --- fire them.
... and with the NCAA withered and dead as far as football is concerned, and the football separated from the college, the thought crosses Saban's mind: What about that third string developmental QB on the _____ insert name of a pro team?
The thing maintaining the relationship of the team and the name of the college is that the college owns the facilities and the "Football Business" is a separate business "renting" all those facilities for a BIG dollar cut of its TV revenues --- the college still funds what it wants to outside of football with those funds. If that's Olympic sports ... that's how they continue.Football is economically on its own.
Coaches decisions to simply fire any number of players that they wish to ..... hmmmm.
