You must be new here? Apologies if no one explained this time of year when you signed up:

First everyone gets antsy for the season around 3-4 weeks out. Some begin posting hot takes on everything - other posters, football program, players, coaches, administration, media, comedians, etc. Other posters share their overly optimistic or overly pessimistic views on the team. But our Tier 1 shitposters make it a sport of brandishing their DSM-5 conditions like a sawed off shotgun.

Most of us just passively consume it, unless we're having one of "those days". It's never a good idea to actively consume shit unless you just can't help yourself.

Not watching Michigan, I wasnt sure about this one. Dude really stood out in the Blue Gold game as a player. Think he will be a solid player for us

I was told by someone in the know that ND got a massive steal when they got Sanders and believe he very well could be a 3 and done prospect with a 1st round grade. Even though he's been seeing alot of time in camp as the field corner I would have expect him to be Moore's backup.

I hate all of these scrimmage shots from the sideline where it's totally zoomed in to the point where you virtually can't tell anything from the highlight.

Looks more like a crappy throw than a great play by Sanders but who can tell for sure.

Same was true of the shot someone posted of Jarrard's pass to Burress earlier. Looked like it was underthrown and Burress made a good adjustment. But once again, who knows.

Both. Not a great throw, likely not Carr, and a nice read & break on the ball by Sanders.

Every single NFL HC would restrict media access if he could. The NFL has a league wide media policy. One of the main things that makes the NFL the dominant spot in the country is their extreme focus on dominating the media cycle at all times.

Not only does CFB not have a league wide media policy, no conference even does. And ND even then does not belong to a conference, even if the SEC for example wanted to try such a thing to put SEC Network to work.

To add: If Marcus Freeman thinks there's any chance that restricting practice might get ND 1 more point at any point this season than we would get otherwise, it's his job to restrict practice. He shouldn't give a tinker's damn about ISD's lack of content or my message board interest. It's August. It's our fault we don't have better things to do.

People don't hesitate to take shots at the staff for failures in the portal and for mismanagement of anything.

Getting Jaydne Sanders out of the portal was a massive pickup for the team. I thought he was an excellent depth piece for next year but he's played in critical moments and he's aggressive in the PBUs. He's been penalized but that comes with the territory. It's great to know we have a dude this year and beyond.

Agree 100%. I wasn't shocked that ND wanted two, I was shocked that ND was able to get two good ones. With Sanders knowing he's most likely not starting unless injury. An injury occurred.

I don't know what's going on behind the scenes/practice but I wish pouncey/adams were getting more of the backup/garbage roles. IMO you could see with Zackery last year that he probably is never going to be that good, or good enough to be a relied upon starter with the type of D we are best at. Comparing Sanders and Zackery is the difference between football ability and combine ability. I guarantee Zackery would whip him in shuttles, jumping, and 40. But Zackery just has bad football movement/technique (it's not natural for him), no instincts, and minimal physicality. On the flip side, although Sanders is not as fast or quick, he's got size, instincts and he plays physical allowing him to be a good corner.

He needs to keep working as SMU will test our pass defense possibly more than Miami in 11 days.

This kid is a baller and he's only a sophomore. He didn't shy away from the spotlight on Saturday night. Maybe the next in line top end CB talent to take the reigns from Moore.

I was told when ND surprisingly got him out of the portal that they got a steal and that he will be 3 and done prospect because he will take over for Moore and be 1st round pick.
