ND and the Big(insert new number here)

[mick2]

How do you figure? If I were to go to ESPN CFB homepage (the same for CNN/SI) right now, there is one article on ND football, and it has to do with the loss of a member of your recruiting class (very sad btw). And isn't today or tomorrow ND's pro day? I would of thought there would of been more news about ND with that going on.

I'm not bashing, just pointing out what has also happened to Michigan. CFB is all about what have you done for me lately, and lately Boise St. has done more for CFB than ND. So yes, right now your alums and fan base will continue to follow ND and care about ND football, but what's going to carry you on? Hopes, dreams, and calls to wake the echoes?

The mentioning that the Big 10 wants ND is proof right there. to be considered as an expansion team you have to bring something to the table. fanbase, facilities, earning potential, ND is on the top of the big 10's list trust me.

i looked on espn, there was just an extensive article in Brian Kelly a day ago. besides that they have a spring fever section and ND gold helmets are on the link. there is about one story for each college program.

in 05 we were 9-3 and THE topic of conversation, in 07 we were 3-9 and THE topic of conversation.

how come every ND game last year was broadcast nationally? we matter, college football is better when the ND's and michigans are good. and when they are not, the talk is about when will they get good again.

Check my posts, I'm far from a troll. And I never specifically mentioned osu, I mentioned the Big10 as a whole...you know Wisconsin, Iowa, Penn St., Northwestern even in a loss looked good, and yes even OSU.

sure buddy. yep, one decent year excuses the last decade of bowl mediocrity....
Thats like a ND fan saying that winning the hawaii bowl was a legit end to the bowl drought!

no one is going to force ND to do anything...let them talk and think that they will. thats fine, but in the end ND will do what they want.

(ND to the big10 is a conversation that has been going on for as long as I have been a fan of ND) its like peace in the middle east, they have been talking about it for 2000 years, it hasnt change since then, its not going to change now.
