I think we'll have two RB commits by then, but we'd still take K. Marshall in a heartbeat. For us to truly be full, we'd have to get eight blue chip verbals between now and January.

Possible, but unlikely.

Some "good" news (if you want to look at it that way) is that Byron Marshall and Keivarae Russel both plan on slow decision cycles. So I'm really hoping we get Mahone and then hunker down to land one of the Marshalls... and maybe KeiVarae ends up being one of the final athletes we take.

Everyone seems pretty certain that we'll have 2 elite RBs on board by the Underarmor game... Seems like we thought we'd have one or two elite RBs signed last year and that didn't happen. Let's just see how it plays out. There will be room for Keith.

i know... can we please get some RBs and a great defense thats all i want... we have the defense now if we had landed Hugggins we'd be setting pretty... anyone seen what that kids been doing i heard it was good stuff..

if we land two RBs and keep manti were going to be at a BCS game back to back yrs...

Listen fellas, there is no way Keith Marshall will be told the boat is full and we're sailing without him. Not only is there wiggle room with the 5th years but also transfers and early NFL draft entries (okay I said entries plural but we all know that it would be a single entry) That could open another couple scholarships without showing Crist/Cave/KLM the door.

Jesus Christ. They haven't even played 2011 yet and have you seen the 2012? And you are aware the Notre Dame needs to replace a all of the DB's and Eilar Hardy's injury doesn't jelp the situation?

Relax a little dude.. plenty of people have been tossing future expectations around with the influx of young talent already on the team and those currently verbal. Trinity is just one of many. It seems like Eilars injury hit you a little to hardy........... heh? heh? Bueller? Bueller?

Let me get a Manti that stays for 2012 after Wood hits 1000 yd season. Come USC, if we win big, we will land recruits we never thought we had a chance with. A big reason why I think many recruits are going. Good atmosphere, good team?, good errr thang! Recruits wanna see what we are and where they can fit. PERIOD

HATER IN THE HOUSE!!!!


You do not ever, ever essentially guarantee that the team you root for will make back-to-back BCS bowls. Especially when the team your root for is 24-25 in the last four years. you drag every other fan down with you on your koolaid-drinking tirade.

3-7
7-6
6-6
8-5

...not enough production to get hyped about the future yet.

He's not a hater because he's skeptical that ND will go to back-to-back BCS games (esp considering in 2012 all the starters we will lose and we play Oklahoma, Michigan, USC, Miami, among other solid teams that will have the ND game marked as their "Super Bowl"); he's just being realistic. Nothing wrong with that. I love ND just as much as the next leprechaun, and I'm still worried about this year's team getting to a BCS game, much less next year's team.

I was joking. I knew I should have typed that in italics...

I actually agree with everything he said. Kelly hasn't even named a QB for 2011 yet trinity is predicting a return trip to the BCS NEXT year? Come on man.

No need for the 8-5 season...

You have a lot of optimism and I admire that.

I am optimistic too and would like to see ND reach BCS bowls every single year but I won't go as far as guaranteeing it. To me that is just too extreme.

clashmore_mike and I come from a world where the posters think Notre Dame fans predict they'll go to a BCS bowl every season. We've taken a lot of crap for it over the years haha

No one should assume your bias is a measurement of your fanaticism.

Back to Keith Marshall?

can and will are two very different things. Hell, I'd like them to win every game they play for the rest of my life, but I am also realistic and understand that that probably :))) won't happen. Doesn't mean I'm not a true fan or don't have the faith. Just means I've been drunk on the Kool Aid before and the hangover it leaves isn't too much fun.

thanks bro glad to be apart of this forum quality ND folks... no guarantee i do feel were on the rise again... my first trip to ND was after 2 6/6 seasons TRUEDOMER i will support my team in every game and i do believe we can win all the games this yr... now will it work out that way? maybe maybe not we all will know at the same time..

8 games in the last 2 yrs lost by 6 or less.. thats a hump we need to just get over we have not just been dominated in those seasons.. 2007 sugar bowl, 2010 sun bowl not bad for the last 5 yrs.. Note good enough tho...

we see irish eye to eye then.. if we can get 2 RBs this yr i have no doubt... we need a great RB for golson to run the option right..

I don't really know how to read twitter with all of the @s and #s, but did Keith Marshall say that or did someone say it to him? I wonder because it says "come on @Truth4" at the end, like someone is saying it to him.

I believe he retweeted, meaning someone else wrote it.

Someone else wrote it, but he ReTweeted it which normally means someone agrees. Most of the time.
