    Clark Lea - Defensive Coordinator

    I have nothing to back it up, just assumed, as usual. Vandy is not used to winning 2 games a year (checks notes), nevermind. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Clark Lea - Defensive Coordinator

    He was probably an eyelash away from getting fired after last season. Now, they should consider making a statue for him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2024 WATCH PARTY: WEEK 6

    ACC gets one regardless. The stinker will be if Clemson cobbles together a good season and they both make it. I have zero preference which of those two get in, but only want to see one get in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Upset Alert 2024

    Anyone who doesn’t believe in the “hangover effect” certainly needs to now. After an emotional rollercoaster, heavyweight prize fight last week, Bama came out depleted and out of sorts. I know you hate to see it, but it was refreshing to see even the highest level teams can sometimes fall off...

    '25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn Verbal)

    It’s not hard to flip the perception: Issue a statement about the importance of judging people on their word, throw a jab about “I know it’s different for some programs, where relationships are built on money, not trust,” then start sobbing at the podium while slamming your fist on it while...

    '25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn Verbal)

    Bingo. Programs like Aggie and War Eagle double and triple down in times of distress. They are the rich parents who give their kid anything and everything, always bail them out when they screw up, and can never understand why said kid can’t develop any consistency in life. Sent from my...

    '25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn Verbal)

    This happens to everyone, not just Notre Dame. Is that cope? Probably. I think it affects our psyche more because we only have ONE blue chip SEC geared recruit a cycle, it’s always them that defects, so it’s magnified. Bama, Ohio State, etc can’t hold onto multiple big dogs every cycle, but...

    '25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn Verbal)

    100% this. He has clearly studied film and is playing the game perfectly: Step 1: commit to ND early and create a safety net in case of injury Step 2: find program with deep pockets and no plan other than to spend, set market price and flip to them Step 3: once market is set, sit back and...

    Louisville Postgame

    This team is deeply flawed, but the part that will absolutely be insurmountable is they consistently display an inability to put together a drive during closing time. I have zero faith this team is capable of going on a game winning drive to end a game when needed. Sent from my iPhone using...

    '25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn Verbal)

    The best class in the BK era by far was 2013. It was a generational haul for the program, but then you had: Eddie V defection Max Redfield never reaching potential Greg Bryant transferring (RIP) Malik Zaire’s injury altering the trajectory of his career Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    '25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn Verbal)

    I’d have to disagree. ND’s recruiting is contingent on winning. Auburn’s recruiting actually intensifies with losses, as the boosters panic and shovel more money into the burning dumpster. Now that this is basically legal, I’d imagine some serious cash is being pushed around to land a few...

    If only it was that simple. Brian Kelly would still have to defeat Brian Kelly when the lights are bright. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Marcus Freeman Revisited

    Holtz lost to Air Force. He wasn’t immune. IIRC, he said the basic blueprint to maintaining success was “You beat your rivals 50%+ of the time (USC, scUM, etc.), you beat the mini-rivals 75%+ of the time (Michigan State, etc.) and you beat service academies and schedule fillers 100% of the...

    This is exactly how we had a few years of Joe Schmidt being a focal point of the defense. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Marcus Freeman Revisited

    Golden Boy Matt Rhule had an absolutely awful loss last night. Nobody is immune. IDGAF that Illinois is ranked. That was a must win game for Nebraska and he was out coached by Bret Bielema. They pissed away all momentum and good will in a game against Illinois. Sent from my iPhone using...

    It goes all laws of game theory, sportsmanship, etc……BUT Why not tell RL “we are throwing 50 times in the second half. Focus on your mechanics. You are not allowed to run.” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Changes to atmosphere in ND Stadium?

    This isn’t hard. Play clips of bagpipes blaring hard music. The sound of bagpipes instantly transforms any drunk Midwestern adult male into a raging lunatic. Blare that shit, but don’t overdo it. Use it a few times a game. Nobody cares about cultural accuracy anymore, so pair it with...
