ND's Talking Heads ... The good, bad & ugly

[EvilleIrish]

He is going full on scorched earth today.

 

[Dale]

Yeah he has like 40 replies since early this AM to folks arguing. It’s odd

It’s not like he is in favor of Ash either, it’s like just arguing to argue. I think feels threatened by people noting again the lack of info on II these days

Lmao what a bitch

 

[NDFAN2008]

We need to hire a DC whose gonna be a good ass recruiter no one wants to play for a DC whose a boring ass coach

 

[IA4irish]

I respect Prister and the career he's had, but he is known for a short fuse. He acknowledged the other day he got into it with Al Golden. He has the attitude that he's smarter than you. Mind you, he's had many misses over the years. It may be time for him to step away.

Is Tim OK?

 

[dublinirish]

Tim stared death in the face, he has not fucks left to give

None of the folks I know who have or have had cancer are assholes for the sake of being an asshole.

Dude needs a vacay. A long one. On a beach, far away from a cell phone.

He had a heart attack.

 

[pumpdog20]

I don't see the big issue with Prister. Those are pretty harmless interactions.

 

[arrowryan]

Tim has a hair up his ass

 

[IrishSpartan]

Prister is having a meltdown it seems. People are asking legitimate questions and he’s shooting back at them with sarcastic bs

 

[IA4irish]

Got into it with Golden about what?

I apologize for not knowing the exact details. I'm not sure which recent pod it was mentioned. I believe it happened a year or so ago at one of the coordinator/press table talks. Prister and Golden had heated words for each other. O'Malley confirmed it happened

They mentioned it like 2 pods ago. So, really recent.

 

[bumpdaddy]

It was in this episode. He brings it up at about the 36:30 mark and then gets a bit more specific at about the 40:00 mark. Prister was recalling his favorite moment with Golden and he said it was when Golden rolled his eyes at him after asking a question which caused Prister to snap and storm out of the room. He was laughing the whole time he was retelling what happened so it's obvious he knows he overreacted.

Feel how you want about how Prister acted but those idiots in that thread were hard to read. They are fans who have no idea about how DI sports work from the other side. They just want a sexy hire and Ash ain't it. 2/3 of them are worried that it will drive Mickens out of South Bend.

Yep, and it started after the natty when his travel home ended up a huge cluster like many others. You could tell he was burnt out and wanted some time away and even mentioned spending time with his grandkids and people gave him shit for wanting to do that instead of answering their questions.

Lol, pretty sure Mike Frank called IB, that National Inquier

Actually chuckled when he said it while listening during my workout. No love list between those two.

What's the story with Driskell and Frank?

 

[TheRealLynch51]

What's the story with Driskell and Frank?

Driskell used to work for Frank at ISD. Driskell ended up taking a job for another ND competitor and said some pretty negative stuff about ISD on the way out if I remember correctly.

I remember when Coach D and his breakdowns from the message boards was a thing over at ISD. Then he very much stopped being a thing over at ISD.

 

[IAIrish]

Thing is, back in the day before everyone and their dog had a podcast, they actually were a pretty good duo on power hour.

Frank was less crusty and Driskell was less pretentious know it all cocksuckerish.

People can question Freeman's judgement pulling Ash off of the street and not promoting Mickens. That's absolutely their prerogative. You are totally correct, however, that the vast majority of us have no idea how things work behind the curtain. If Freeman hires Ash and doesn't promote Mickens, he has his reasons.

I don't follow any of these guys anymore, but it sounds to me like under Freeman there are not a lot of leaks or not as many under Kelly, so the beat has trouble getting intel?

Sure, but he was always Driskell which meant that he needed therapy, even back then. I gave him $5 about a month ago, just to see what his site was about - was always curious, y'know, like watching a car crash.
Holy moly does that guy have issues... I'm surprised that anyone could pay him an annual seeing how badly he talks down to people who dare question his holiness and infallibility. He seems to enjoy the groveling of his sycophants as well. Anyhow, it's pretty bad over there and his site reminds me of geocitites.
