So much changes between now and 2027, much less 2032/2033 that I find it hard to make broad generalizations about the strength/quality/caliber of teams on our schedule 6 years in advance. When we booked this Wisconsin game, they were a 10 win team. Now they aren't... Florida and USC could be...

Exactly - you can safely and easily assume that everyone wearing red in the stands was a Wisconsin fan and the 50% or greater group not wearing red was a ND fan. It was most of the crowd. One issue I have with it being a nominal "home game" is playing Jump Around in the 3rd/4th quarter break...

Great interview - comes across as a great kid once again.

This is well worth the watch - Chris Simms has been very complementary of Notre Dame all off season. This also belongs in the CJ Carr thread too for how good it is. I listened to him all off season at random times. He's said: ND had the best offense in the country last year and shouldn't have...

I think his strengths can play with CJ's strengths CJ Carr is an extremely accurate QB. If he can hit these guys in stride on slants that is YAC heaven for wide receivers like Bubba.

Can we talk about the likelihood that MGB is just another koon burner account? I wouldn't be surprised if within a few days another account that was created 2-4 years ago but never posted suddenly becomes one of the top 5 most active posters on the board in the span of 2 weeks...

I agree with you. Those clips above and the USC game makes me even more mad about missing the playoffs last year. CJ having another 4 games of high pressure experience would have helped going into this year... Any doubts would have been settled with the primetime exposure.

I stand corrected - I looked him up and he argued the other major legislative cases for NIL and such. Kessler has credentials but he still won't get any relief from the NFLPA. I looked up Sorsby's other reps, and he must be paying a boatload for all of these people. He had his NIL done through...

I don't usually understand legal smackdowns - I'm not smart enough. But that was a perfectly worded smackdown. Wow. Btw, can we also mention that this kid's agents and attorneys are a joke. Is this the same idiot that complained on Twitter that Cincinnati wouldn't waive the transfer buyout...

I don't see this particular issue discussed enough: Sorsby may still NOT have any future in the NFL. Aside from the red flags of the gambling on your own team issue at all, it's the logistics of the Supplemental Draft that will complicate things. The Supplemental Draft is held only when...

I've been to 3 Sun Bowls and I love the experience. The El Paso locals go annually as a matter of pride. They pick a side and cheer at random. A bunch of them are there to drink and get really passionate about rooting on their newly adopted team. They then end up starting fights with other...

Texas Roadhouse? I like their style!

Exactly. Sorsby owes $1 million buyout and refused to pay. Someone with better Twitter skills than me can pull up the press releases from his (very poor) representatives where they essentially asked Cincinnati to waive the buyout because they "asked nicely" and Cincinnati wouldn't. Sorsby also...

Also ... The difference in recruiting mindset for the types of players USC goes after. You hear ALL the time that kids are told to pick Notre Dame for Notre Dame, not for a coach. CJ Carr even said it when he was still in high school - Tommy Rees could be gone before he gets to campus and they...

I'm really interested to see what happens to these lower level schools if/when a super conference happens. They'll get left behind because not even all of the current P4 will get selected - maybe a NFL number of 32ish out of the 60+ current teams. That means the leftover P4 scraps will scramble...
