It would be nice if ND could officially disown people like these as fans.

 

[Irish4Life09]

all i can say is wow. I had to check this out when you guys posted it, and im shocked.

why would anyone hate on two of our most respected players we've had in a long time? Especially Manti, who is revered for his class.
And these guys are supposedly Irish fans?
Dudes need to get a life....I wish we had more NC's too,but to go hating on players for doing everything right is absolutely wrong.Makes me think of the Mike Gundy press conference from a few years ago when reporters ripped on kids. Oklahoma State Football Coach Mike Gundy Upset - YouTube

Saw this earlier and couldn't stand it. Saw the post on here so I had to register.

This internet tough guy is "Casey Dodson." He lives in Hollidaysburg, PA, which is a quaint town of just over 5,000 persons. The kid attends the local high school there and is a member of the golf team (such a badass).

He's probably related to the mayor of the town, Joe Dodson. Given the arrogance of the kid, it wouldn't surprise me. It seems as though his family hasn't gotten out of the PA valley, as there are ~40 Dodsons in that small town. Apparently he's a big LaMichael James fan as well.

He is a class act. Another student athlete that makes you proud to be a fan of the Irish.

Manti Te'o proves to be as unique of a student-athlete as they come

Thanks brother...

Great article. Floyd helped inspire his return.

 

[notredomer23]

Hate to ask this question but did his dad die? his last three tweets are how he loves his pops how he misses him and then tweeted a picture of him in the stadium with the silhouette of what I thought was his father looking down

 

[IrishLax]

No, grandfather.

 

[notredomer23]

No, grandfather.

Okay thanks I was confused because I sometimes call my dad pops. Horrible none the less.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Prayers to Manti and his family!

 

[BeauBenken]

Take care Te'o family.

 

[Old Man Mike]

God Bless you. Warrior, and all the warriors of your clan.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Manti,

As a man who had a Grandfather who was important in my life, I wish you the peace of knowing that you carry the best part of him in your heart. And, as a Grandfather, I also wish you the realization of knowing that he was able to see you grow as a deeply spiritual man, making the most mature decisions, and holding your honor and dignity high. After all, the fulfillment for all grandparents' love is to see their grandchildren thrive.

My best wishes for peace and healing for you and your family,

The Bogtrotter.

“@MTeo_5: So grateful for my school and trying to schedule a game for me and Robby to play Hawaii in Hawaii for our final game. It would've been nice.”

“@MTeo_5: That is one of the many examples that shows how special a place notre dame is. I love my school. I hope we can still work things out. #WeRND”

 

[Chamellion]

So, trying = failed or are we actually playing there?

 

[BeauBenken]

"It would've been nice" would seem to imply that it isn't happening.

 

[Irish4Life09]

That is too bad....but he shouldn't worry, because his last game will be in a BCS game.Mark it down.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Consider it marked.

Hawaii backed out.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Effin, aye!

 

[NDhoosier]

that sucks, I wonder why Hawaii backed out. Getting a chance to play Notre Dame AT HOME for a team like Hawaii is almost unheard of. I wonder what the reason for Hawaii's rejection is, I only see an upside for Hawaii (unless they are expecting to go undefeated next year...)

 

[ACamp1900]

You know, this really shows his character though, the majority of college aged kids I come across would not have the perspective or understanding to say, "So grateful for my school for trying..."

beyond his years.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I posted this back on 1/23

Hawaii is no longer seeking a 13th game, and we weren't even the team they were considering.

Keep Up!
