UND.com is going balls out to keep us informed of every move the team makes. Next up in their series, "Brian Kelly eats Italian", a two-hour documentary consisting chiefly of Kelly ordering and consuming lasagna.

In the video:

- Manti Te'o playing the ukelele
- Images of camaraderie (most notably Crist and Floyd sharing a jetski)
- Brian Kelly driving a boat
- Chris Stewart's epic fail

Watched the video. Great video. Can't believe how well those guys did the water ski thing. Floyd and Crist have Hollywood good looks for their future if their degrees don't pan out for them.

On the other hand, I am a bit disturbed that even on vacation these young kids are being watched and filmed. Geez. Let the kids live a little. Let them fuck up a little. It is almost as bad as child porn to invade these kids' lives to the extent that is happening.

Someone on the Aaron Lynch thread asked for weekend updates. I say NO. Let the kid grow up on his own, in private, then show us his public face when he smashes the opponent on national t.v.. Geez, let the kids breath.

I'm almost ashamed I watched.

What-the-hell, I loved it. If we can expand the follow-up concept to the Offensive Line orders and eats pasta under the horrified eye of a local all-you-can-eat restaurant owner, then bring that on, too. [by the way, Neutered, I am 100% with you on that get-off-Aaron's-back-and-let-him-relax-and-be-a-kid suggestion.]

Agreed, i get that people want to know about the new team, and i think its good for moral to see the guys having fun, but ya, in years past this has been a closed doors event. I almost feel like kelly should go on NBC and tell people to stop filming his kids off the feild like Obama did in 07. This has to be the most publicized ND team in decades.

Cool clip. Diamond is like 20 mins from my house. Good to see the guys have some fun before the season starts. Thanks for the access to the vid.

it didn't seem like a whole group of reporters were out there. It seemed like they had their own cameras and just filmed their own fun. Then decided to share, but I understand what your saying Neutered.

On a side note, Diamond Lake looked beautiful, wish i was in South Bend to take a weekend trip up there.

Nah. That was a professionally and well done video. Great video actually.

My point is that we as fans kinda gather together at a website and gripe and hope about our team, and leave it at that. I think the media can take things to the extreme by INVADING in kids' lives.

These are KIDS for goodness sakes. Let them be kids and let them mess up every now and then. In private.

comparing a jet skiing video to child pornography? you must be joking, right?

i loved the video and i loved the access. i am roughly the same age as some of those *kids* and i highly, highly doubt they mind being filmed jet skiing and eating freakin water melon.

hell, i bet they all called their parents and told them to check out the video online!

regardless, when they signed up to play football for notre dame, they knew what they were getting into with the media attention, etc...and most of them seem to be embracing the new media angle...

because in case you are not aware... they post pictures of themselves on twitter all the damn time and encourage fans to follow them.. geezus.

Yeah Boss, I know my comment was extreme, thought twice before I posted, but posted anyway. Coverage of athletes can just seem to be too much. Let the guys breath. But yep, I thought it was a great video. lol

Take a deep breath. BreathE easy.

It looked like fun, but it struck me that they were using the wrong boat for wake surfing. An old fashioned and heavy Chris Craft, with an 85 HP Johnson outboard, might have been better.

It was good to see the lads on video having good, clean fun ... not pummeling some locals (or teammates) and tossing them through a bar's front window.

OK Sir. Just seems to me over-coverage of kids can get creepy.

Cool video of the team just hanging out and having fun. I see a night a day different between Weis and Kelly already and the season hasn't started.
