We have truly become a culture of grievance. Everyone is/was slighted by every last little thing that anyone ever did or said to them.

He had an awesome game and his team won. Had to bring it here. I'll be honest, I was a lot more admirable of his game Saturday night until I read about this. Seriously don't care. He spent a year at Stanford and bolted into The Portal.
And had he come to ND he wasn’t going to start over Carr or Minchey, so he would’ve likely portaled out regardless

BYU will not make the playoffs, so we're not seeing him again this season. Saturday in Orlando will be the start of their ending.

I don’t care what he said, players use all sorts of things as motivation. He’s a competitor, if we didn’t want the smoke we should have won.
Totally agree, but it a bit of a reach that he actually said it. I assume the sec is full of players jilted from one program only to end up in another, for example, but you don't here them expressing it in press conferences. It comes off as a little biznitch imo

Unless something crazy happened that we cant possibly fathom, I assume this is commonplace in big time college foosball and Bachmeirer is kinda sensative. Imagine if every snubbed recruit vented in their interviews. Not super professional, imo.

Good for him, I’m glad he spoke his mind! He’s a young adult speaking emotionally in a press conference just moments after winning the biggest game of his life. Such highs are rare in life, he should enjoy it to the fullest and boast a little. Sometimes I feel like CJ is too vanilla

How snubbed is he going to be when he doesn’t get drafted after two more years of playing?! He will always have this film to look back on and how he was lucky the refs were too scared to call PI or out a second back on the clock. Put an asterisk next to this win. I think the pollsters have hence ND at #4.

This is truly pathetic. They lost and Bachmeier balled. Just accept it and maybe don't take some weird comfort in his draft prospects as a true sophomore.

I don't get the sense BeatSC is taking comfort in his draft prospects. I think he's calling it like he sees it. That being this could very well be the pinnacle of Bachmeier's career.

how many auburn players got played by bama in recruiting for example? how many of them have to vent their personal lives to the world? it is a bit unprecedented unless notre dame did something completed absurd.

Saying it's pretty normal for competitive athletes to use whatever motivation they can get.

But i guess doing that is jilted high school girl behavior. Calling a 20 year old a piece of shit about it though, thats real level headed, grown up stuff.
Let me know when you find footage of MJ petty griping about being disrespected by his opponent in a post-game presser. Context matters buddy. Me calling BB a piece of shit on a ND forum after he acts like a whiny entitled little bitch really offends your delicate sensibilities huh?

Most likely was not a cultural fit...found a family picture of his father Wolf with his uncles Bison and Aardvark

At least Bear is passionate and unafraid of being PC. I'd take a little more of that attitude honestly. Just go full villains

do you assume ND did something absurd or commonplace? BC I assume people get buthurt thousands of times a year in recruiting but how many times do players think it is necessary to put that first and foremost in a winning interview?

Single digit favorites over UCF and I'll be in attendance to put the hex on them. I'm just letting you know now, if UCF pulls this off, I am going to be petty, mean, and someone my mother wouldn't be proud of. I am not going to be "classy". I'll give myself this one pass.

Listen I get what ya’ll are saying and beating Miami would certainly go a long ways but they damn near left Indiana out at 11-1 in 2024

If you all think ND is 100% in control of their own destiny you have not been paying attention

I’ve been banging the drum of not worrying about SoS all year at 12-0 it doesn’t matter

It absolutely matters now at 11-1

Point still stands, Notre Dame now needs BYU to be considered a good team at the end of the year
