    Entering perilous territory here...

    I know Ty has been an issue of controversy on this board in recent days, but I saw this on EDSBS and thought I'd share. It's good for a quick laugh. Vaginas Invade Notre Dame: http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/?p=1915

    Urban's recruiting technique

    Straight from the source: FLORIDA’S UNIQUE PITCH How did Florida recruit so many quality recruits this year? A hint from today’s AJC recruiting fold out: We asked a few recruits to finish this sentence: The funniest thing to happen to me on the recruiting trail was… “The Florida...

    USC Professors Fighting Back

    The link below is to a rather funny story (well, an email) that a USC professor sent to one of the "student athletes" (USC fullback Mike Brittingham) for his "attendance". http://www.deadspin.com/sports/college-football/student-athletes-rule-138777.php From: michael brittingham Sent: Thu...

    Support from SI

    Stewart Mandel spends his mailbag column this week defending Notre Dame's ranking, as compared to Ohio State, Virginia Tech, and Oregon. It's not that often that ND gets defended by a columnist, enjoy it while you can. Apparently, OSU fans are REALLY pissed...which warms my heart. Imagine how...

    SI respect for Quinn

    Brady Quinn has been ranked by SI as one of the top 10 NFL franchise quarterbacks. The premise was to rank the top 10 quarterbacks you would build a NFL team around for the long-term future. Quinn is the only collegian ranked and ranks ahead of Culpepper, Schaub, and Leftwich...

    Devil's advocate...

    I don't believe the Irish faithful have anything to worry about, but in the interest of stirring up some conversation during a long week I point your attention to the following: (FYI, Click the link to see an awesome picture of CW as a student). http://www.deadspin.com/ Could ND's Savior Be...

    Brady Quinn & the NFL

    I was just listening to ESPN radio and the talking head (Cowherd, maybe) was discussing how impressive Brady Quinn looked in the loss to USC. He went on to say that, in his opinion, Brady Quinn went from a late-4th to a mid-1st round pick. The turnaround Charlie Weis has engineered with Quinn...

    Can't get enough ND-USC fun?

    I found these sites while browsing this morning. My favorite is the Notre Dame haiku site. A sampling: Said Hoyte to Leinart Whilst Matt bled internally: "My nuts in your face." http://drinkthatdrink.blogspot.com/ http://haikund.blogspot.com/

    Embarrassment!

    If there were any doubts among the ND faithful that this program is no longer as respected nationally as it once was, those doubts have been cleared up today. Reports on ESPN (out of Jacksonville) are that Urban Meyer has accepted the Gators job...

    Stay home...

    The only way to make your displeasure with the current coaching staff known is to stay away from the Insight bowl. All of the pundits say that Notre Dame travels well and that is what makes the university attractive to potential bowls. The administration will continue to accept 6-5 records...
