It seems clear they have guys locked up already and they aren't going to go public with it until either the portal closes or they are done. The beat is clearly being told to keep quiet

My thoughts as well. No way they fumbled this bad. Right?

Turns out he's been a closet IU fan this whole time.

I have much more faith in MF closing in the portal than I do my Tide. We passed dysfunctional about week six this year.

I am canvassing every trailer park between Tuscaloosa and Mobile looking for some big nasties. Right now I have Bertha from Bessemer and Latifa from Lanett scheduled to visit Monday. Bertha will have to play inside but Latifa got some long arms so left tackle could be taken care of.

Dude, what is going with your DL? What is the scuttlebutt?

If this is true and hoping so, what’s the strategy behind it?

Don’t know if there’s internal strife between them and Roach. He has been well liked by past players. Personally I think it’s just players exercising their right to get more money if they can.

All three main ones (Russaw, Smith, and KK) haven’t really lived up to their projections. Maybe coaching? Maybe them not working like they should to develop? I wish them well in their futures, but I think any team that pays them what they want are paying on potential and not actual performance.

Only 1 out of 10,000 sea turtles survive to adulthood. I’m not entirely sure why, but it feels relevant. Forgive me for my lack of confidence here.

Jumping on cruise and won’t be back until the end of the portal. No internet!! Hoping to come back to a national championship contending DL and happier IE board.

Fun fact, all of ND FB titles have come after the sinking of the titanic.

The bedwetting looks like it got out of control in my absence.

I woke up in my neighbors waterbed this morning. Then I remembered my neighbor doesnt have a waterbed. Then I remembered I don't have neighbors. What happened last night?

Every store is sold out of bedsheets but the hand lotion is fully stocked for those that bedwet a little different.

So every married guy on here….

Have fun. Entire ND coaching staff may be getting off their week long cruise when you board.

Hey, good news is IU proved what you can do with 3 stars with a strong team culture and top, tenured coaching staff.

I was going to make a snide remark about Indiana having some large D Tackles at least but their starters are listed at 284 and 302 so maybe there is a hope.

Well at this point may just have to turn some no chance to play offensive linemen into gap fillers!

Ok so back on topic,… this has got to be the biggest gut punch six weeks in my history as a fan… lose a chance at a natty basically two straights years when everything seemed so poised the day of the conference title games. And yes, zero impact DTs means forget a natty next year,… the ‘revenge season’ is relegated to the regular season and we all know it

Again, can we wait until the Portal period is over before making reservations for the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl? I don't know how some of you guys survived before between Holtz and Freeman.

If there’s other DTs out there that can realistically fit I’m all ears

I think DT's are generally too large to fit into ears.

Not by Notre Dame’s recent ‘Frodo Linemen’s’ standards,… 😂. Anyway, nice catch
