At least our most ready made second stringer plays LG...

I mean, it would certainly not be ideal if Patterson is out for the game, but I feel like Kristofic can at least fill in and provide solid play at LG right?

Why in the hell would an insider say some cryptic bullshit like that?

If you’re going to say anything, then say everything. “It’s not Covid and it’s not good” is rookie material.

Program momentum seems to not only have stalled, but now completely reversed course. Both five stars about to decommit, injuries to key positions in lightly rostered positions. Now the OL anchor out for what seems to be a disciplinary reason. Brutal month.

Patterson being out for a disciplinary reason would be so shocking it'd almost be comical... has to be an injury

Why would Mike Singer do something so immature and childish?
Hmmm, let me look at my ledger....

So having potentially more players be sick and unavailable to practice/play is a better strategy? That’s a bold move, cotton.
A) They are not sick
B) They would be perfect fine to practice and play

That’s the point. They wouldn’t have to sit out if they weren’t taking pointless tests. And they aren’t sick in the first place. They are fine.
Are we going to random test them for thousands of other viruses too?
After 15 years in infectious disease I can tell you that they are fine and no reason for testing without symptoms. Even the CDC is (finally) coming around to this.

I'm shocked how little of traffic this thread is getting.

people like to bitch about recruiting more than talk about football. Like the NBA and TV ratings vs twitter engagement.

There just isn't much *actual* football to talk about as it pertains to Fall camp. We get brief notes and Twitter summaries from limited media availability, but there's not much to discuss when we don't know the extent of injuries, reasons for absences, etc.

And we also have almost zero meaningful video content to analyze, discuss and attack each other over.

How can one of the new Koonja alts tell us that Kyren is going to be a scrub, if we don't have any clips of Kyren in the first place? And how can we have 4+ pages of content for a debate that only exists as a hypothetical?

The IE content generator bot produced the message below when asked for comment:

Annnnd this is why ND will never be great, look at how there isn't a Trevor Lawrence at QB on the roster. Rees can't recruit, and I'm not sure how Freeman will do as a HC....look at the OSU bowl game! Will CJ Carr decommit, he is a UM legacy and what if NIL becomes a factor???

I think the OSU game looming also changes the pre season hype to some extent

Same poster said Patterson was hurt and was asked to play through the injury, but it got much worse and will have to miss games. If this is true, this is very dumb on the part of whoever asked him to play through it.

Seems unlikely. It’d find it more likely he concealed and injury and practiced through it as a captain trying to do whatever he can than that they asked him two practice through injury with weeks till a game

Patterson has a foot injury per II. Different foot than he had surgery on

Edited to clarify

Shocking, someone injured their foot. Any other programs battle these injuries?

If we don't kick UA to the fucking curb, I'm going to continue to be a fan but I'm going to really hate that brand for a long time. They have fucked our team big time.

We can not move past them fast enough.

Patterson has a semi lengthy injury history for someone who’s only been a starter for 2ish years.

Like most of you, I’m not a fan of Under Armour. But I don’t think Glass Man Patterson is the best reason to throw UA in the trash.

Starting to think this season has the potential to be a major letdown
Only if you let it. A very young first year head coach, a sophomore Tyler Buchner, limited depth at WR and RB due to injuries or departures. 9-3 I think should be the floor. We have enough talent to get to the playoffs but we’d need A Lot of bounces to go our way to be champs. The “we only play for championships” motto will only lead to disappointment in years like this.

Blah blah blah, did y’all watch the 2016 season? How many years head coaching experience did Krian Belly have under his belt at the point that everything fell apart?

Let’s save the pessimism for now, everything except some recruiting battles, and a few injuries has been trending our way. You don’t write bad reviews about something you haven’t tried do you? Give it a chance,
