DL recruiting is not good. Lindsey is a 3* and will blow up, but this kid doesn’t have that upside.

How in the world are you making this proclamation a year out from signing day?

I get that some of you were disappointed about losing Keeley, but JFC get a grip on yourselves.

So he can say “told you so” in a year. Even a blind squirrel….

Watch Lindsey’s film. He’s going to be an Absolute stud. He’s being underrated bc competition in Arkansas isn’t as strong as it is in TX, FL, GA.

I want him bc he’s going to be a tremendous player and will help ND a great amount on DL.

IDGAF about being right. This isn’t about my ego. I just want ND to win a Title, that’s all I care about.

That’s fine, but a lot of what you want to see (payments to players up front) is directly opposed to what ND’s standards are and what they are willing to do. The fact that you don’t understand that and still vehemently call for it makes you look ignorant. Keep on pissing into the wind 👍

It’s an ignorant and outdated standard. It would be far more damaging to their rep if they lowered academic requirements instead of giving the bag to elite players who qualify.

It's been discussed at length on here that ND will not be doing "pay for play". And you keep pounding the drum for it. It's not going to happen. Suck it up and move on from the argument. You are literally beating a dead horse that is no longer making an echo.

Then, you might as well arrest me for abuse of an animal corpse. This is something all of us should be harping on. Fuck, that ignorant outdated way of thinking. Without us as fans, the program doesn’t Fuckin exist, so the more we make noise, the more they hear.

and there it is. This dude legitimately thinks his posts are making a change.

Might as well record a demo of Imagine while you’re at it.

No, but I think if enough people in the masses get riled up, it could force a change. At some point, this would reach the donors with big pockets.

I don't want ND giving hand outs to unproven high school players, no matter how good they are - nearly half of the five stars every year end up as busts. Now, the Transfer Portal is a different story, but even then, if you are really good player that wants to transfer into ND, it's safe to say that there already is good value in your brand, your personal NIL, all you have to do is attached ND to it and it will pay off tenfold.

ND is figuring out their NIL strategy. This whole era of NIL is less than two years old, and it takes time to develop and promote and fair and sustainable product.

Keeley isn’t going to bust, he might very well start next yr at Bama, if not end up in the 2 Deep. Bowen, is also unlikely to bust.


I’m not saying they need to be idiots like A&M, but make smart decisions in which 5* to pay.

For every time someones said "can't miss five-star", half the time those players turn out to be misses.

Quickly go through 24/7's composite five-stars from 2012 to 2018 and you'll see what I mean.

Nobody is can’t miss, but he’s extremely close. He dominated the AA game.

I was referring to the "DL recruiting is not good" comment, which is premature at best.

They do, they just don't call it that.

I love Notre Dame. I grew up a USC fan and, you know, that little rivalry that USC and Notre Dame have has always been really good. But being a Polynesian, growing up and seeing Manti Te'o play, the first thing that comes up in my mind is grit.

Seems like a really good fit but growing up a USC fan with what USC is doing on the trail, might be too much to overcome.
