This show looks funny. I’ll have to try and see the whole thing.
Listened to it today. Mayer was great and really explained the difference between being a student-athlete at ND vs the SEC or B1G.

Towards the end the audio gets rough but the meat of the Mayer interview is solid.

As a ND and 49er fan I loved this haha. One thing I thought about is how Mayer is the exception to the rule regarding BK recruits. Mayer is an elite 5 star who carries himself like that. I don't feel many of BK's guys were like this...especially post Jaylon Smith class. I expect more and more ND players to have this confidence as MF will recruit more guys like this

Will Compton and George Kittle? It’d say that’s more of a reflection of them being active NFL players (well sometimes active for Compton lol) than Barstool. Kittle isn’t normally there they were just doing his TE U thing too.

Kind of irked me when Kittle jumped down Mayer's throat for saying ND has a perennial top 10 schedule and started to pick ours apart.

He admitted we have 4-5 big games but tried to insinuate that playing Cal, BC, UNC, etc are all a "joke," basically trying to lump them in with the Navy, Marshall and UNLVs of the world. Which is utter nonsense.

Looked up up on several outlets and we have the 13th toughest schedule according to ESPN's FPI. GTFO, quit being so technical. Worry about Iowa's cupcake division.

He wasn’t even aware that we play Ohio state. He, like many, just falsely assume ND plays cupcakes because they’re not in a conference. When Mayer said we open the year at Ohio State, he was like, oh, I didn’t know that. Duh.

Most people who hate on ND's schedule are those that went to Tier 2 or Tier 3 schools like Kittle. They are butthurt about their school not being "big time" and think that ND gets undue acclaim. They bemoan an "easy schedule" when what they're really trying to imply is that "my [irrelevant school] would win lots of games if we weren't in [hard conference] with [Tier 1 teams]".

Iowa (Kittle's team) plays one elite team this year... Ohio State. They play two "good" opponents... Wisconsin and Michigan. Every other team ND would be favored by 10+ points, and no one with a brain thinks that Michigan/Wisconsin are comparable to Clemson/USC this year. No matter how you slice it, ND plays a schedule more difficult than 90%+ of their FBS opponents.

This should come to no surprise to anyone, but Mayer said on the podcast that this is his last year.

I think he leaves Notre Dame atop of the TE rankings.

he could sit out the season and still be TE1 in the 2023 draft TBF and even if Buchner blows, Mayer will still have his 2021 tape

Every ND-hater I know goes after SOS and when you confront them with these very basic, easy-to-understand, objective facts.....they still claim ND plays cupcakes and needs to join a conference. They don't want to hear the truth, because at the end of the day, they're just trolling.

I mean seriously, can ND play Michigan's schedule this year? I'm begging you.

After starting 3-0, they could realistically be looking at a 5 maybe 6 win season.

Man that is such a bland schedule. Playing PSU and OSU would be fun but god that would be a boring season to sit through.

No way. I hate Michigan but they're going to win at least 9 games this year and more than likely will get to 10 unfortunately. It's next year where we'll start to see a drop off.

This might be the worst non-conference schedule I can remember seeing. It is embarrassing if they do not win at least 10 games. You can't win two games out of four against Iowa, Penn State, Sparty and OSU?

Has anyone else tried to place an order to support Mike? The article says that a 15% discount will be applied to the first order automatically if you use the link but it didn’t work for me even though I got all the way through the checkout process up to putting in my card info. No discount was showing but it did show the taxes, etc.

Have you purchased anything from Rhoback before? The only discounts I've seen from them are first time purchase types and don't apply to subsequent orders. Their stuff is really nice, especially the hooded pullovers but also very expensive, so the discount would be nice lol.
