Perhaps. But it was both Thune and Drumm, wasn't it?

Thune is the clown. But Drumm is literally just like a clone of Loy. They are amazingly alike from what I’ve read of him.

I do think Drumm talked to Bowen quite a bit……but they also had a 5 star QB committed from Guyer, former Guyer people working for OU and OUs OCs friend is their HC. He had access to Guyer for more reasons than just stalking Peyton. Unlike say EJ who just shows up places and corners the kid into an interview. Also the Texas site, 247, On3, rivals guys local to Texas do the same thing. They go to games every weekend.

Pretty typical over exaggeration and lashing out by Driskell.

Wasn’t Thune the one who was actively trolling ND just last week & posted a Teo gf troll?
I honestly don’t understand why the people who run the sites allow people like Thune, EJ, Hopkins, etc…to act like ass clowns under their sites’ name?

The problem is these cumguzzlers go on Twitter, where their site makes no money off of, & get into fights with random fans or even other journalists because they are immature. Like when EJ went on Twitter to call Loy a “boy.”

Anyone else get the vibe from the Irish Illustrated podcast that ND seemed to be kinda encouraging Justin A and Aidan K elsewhere even though we don’t have replacements? Or at least the conversation didn’t seem to be we need you to stay.

They seemed frustrated with ND not fighting tooth and nail for these guys like it didn’t make sense their (as in ND) stance.

I guess it depends there's tons of better talent out there on the transfer market if ND can land a few of those guys we should be good but I'm generally concerned about the quality of depth at Safety and DL next year.

Who is better for ND than Justin A?
He’s not a Vyper like some people have said on here, he is a SDE.
He’s not a NFL SDE, but he definitely is a good college SDE.
I’ve been impressed with him at ND. He does his job. I’ve seen so many times where the defense gets fooled & Justin staying home & doing his job saved the play.
Mills will move inside and Justin is needed in the two deep at SDE.

I don't understand how Goolsby is so high on Buchner. Dude threw two pick-six's, three picks overall, in his sole win as a starter. I feel like that should say it all.

He’s at least admitted it’s somewhat irrational. I’ve been there.

Somewhere out there Pat Narduzzi is screaming at you "NIL NIL NIL, ND IS BUYING REPLACEMENTS!"

Mike can’t even tell you why. His entire argument is just that he likes him and he’ll fist fight Hartman if that’s what it takes for Tyler to get the job.

He also scored 5 other TDs.
To not see the good, with the bad, would also be mistaken.
You CAN also try and justify the mistakes as rust.

It's not that crazy.

I mean Mike Singer actually likes Angeli for crying out loud...

Yes. Really, really good CFB coverage (national and most major programs). And high quality on lots of other stuff too.
And a tip if you’re thinking about the Athletic: they will give you a discounted introductory rate. When it renews cancel. They’ll offer a small discount, don’t take it. Their second offer was 19.95 a year, way lower.

So just listened to Late Kick and apparently all the national guys think Buchner is leaving...that is nothing that all the local guys think...correct?

I didn't get that feeling. Seemed more like the Tims were basically panicking (prob justifiably) at the '23 DL depth, and less like "ND is wrong for how they're handling it." JMO, tho. I could be wrong in what they're really trying to say.

They’re extremely worried about the dline next year. ND needs those two guys, but it seems like at this moment they’re done and going elsewhere. I think Prister and O’Malley are saying ND needs to do everything they can to make sure that doesn’t happen because the defensive line has so many questions right now.

I think that is just speculation based on Hartman likely coming. It seems more likely that Angeli would leave right now than Buchner because he doesn't seem to really have a path to playing. I could see Buchner doing a grad transfer out though, he isn't that far off from a degree at this point.

This staff has held things much closer to the vest with the media. With the Lucas news, I wonder if there are other D line upgrades out there that the staff is optimistic they can land.
