    2026 ND Portal Targets

    You shouldn't be overly pumped yet... He's done very little in his career. That said, he was just starting his emergence late last season, so maybe he clicks with the new DL coach and becomes a strong rotational player in the top 4. Notre Dame doesn't have a lot of 6'3, 300+lb bodies that can...

    2026 Transfer Portal - General

    A lot of this is no different than at Notre Dame. Starters getting a raise to stay in the fold, at the cost of depth losing cash... That depth then jumps in the portal to see if theh can get starter money / reps elsewhere.

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    Over... By time it's all said and done I'm going to say... 1-2x WR 1x CB 1x NB 2x DT 1x DE 1x K 1x QB I'll throw 8 out there as the number. If they can't find 2 WRs that they really like, I'll go with 7... Hopefully, they're willing to spend $10'ish million in portal money, because that's...

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    What it comes down to for me is that Smith and Russaw profile much better for Ohio State. Not only with the scheme fit, but also their cultural fit at the university. By comparison, I think Brewu profiles much better for Notre Dame, as long as he's not intimidated by the academic component...

    FIFA sucks.

    $400 a piece isn't too bad at all though... I make my way to Toronto for 4-5 Leafs games per year. Given that we're making the 5 hour drive we usually make sure get lower level tickets. Even on a Tuesday or Thursday night you're looking at $325-$400 for a regular season game. On a Saturday night...

    Technically governed by the same rules now.

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    Interested to see how Patridge feels about Mukam once he's had a chance to coach him through the spring. Plenty of athleticism and good size... Just a raw kid...

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    Oh, definitely. I'm just talking about the Portal in the broadest sense and the dates that govern it. They can keep signing players for a longggggg time yet, as long as they enter the Portal before the 16th. Regardless, I suspect ND will be looking for approximately 7-8 players in this cycle...

    Marcus Freeman named Dick Corbett Head Football Coach

    He could look that 5'5 coach right in the eye (as in eye-to-eye) and tell him to F-Off! Go Ron lol!

    2026 Transfer Portal - General

    I think it's fair to say that it's paying off for Texas Tech as well... That program is nowhere near where it is now with the transfer portal, NIL and Campbell's ability to spend millions to buy a competitor.

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    It's still wayyyy too early to assert that, IMO... The Portal is open for the better part of another week and we're still seeing people jump in. There is definitely back channeling happening and I find it improbable that there isn't a player out there that will take a hefty sum of money to come...

    FIFA sucks.

    Yeah dude! In the world we live in, you have to make some choices. I splurge on 3 or 4 bigger sporting events per year, then sprinkle in some NHL, NBA and MLB regular season. Maybe 15 events total. Between that and a couple trips to the U.S. each year, 7-10 days in the Carribean with the family...

    FIFA sucks.

    Bought 5th row tickets behind the ND bench at Boston College this year for my two buddies and myself. Paid $2400.00 usd for the three. Bought 2nd deck tickets for games 1-2 of the World Series for my dad, my uncle and I. Paid $9450.00 usd for the the six tickets. Sporting events in general are...

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    Getting Mukam back isn't an overwhelming win by any stretch, but he certainly is one of the 5-6 guys that will battle for top 4 reps. If he takes a step forward this year I could see him as a nice rotational asset.

    2026 Transfer Portal - General

    That's a really good get for Michigan to build around at the WR position. They desperately need to upgrade that room to give their talented young QB the passing game weapons he needs. I wonder if that takes them out of the Quincy Porter pursuit? One would think.

    Yes. A huge part of why this Portal period has been so frantic. This is the only chance teams have to make moves!

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    Sign me up up for that... Brewu is the exact type of body type that Patridge and Ash would feast with. 6'1... He'll probably play at 285lbs this year. Complete gym rat that plays wayyyy above his size. He'll be penetrating gaps all game long!! Threaten to sue the NCAA into oblivion, get that...

    2026 Transfer Portal - General

    Texas making "big boy" moves. Let a really good player in Parker Linvingstone walk and inserted Cam Coleman in his place. Not a Sark man, but that's a heck of a move.

    2026 ND Portal Targets

    The "sell" isn't that he'd be a backup. The idea would be a 3-for-2 position split with Greathouse and Faison, each getting 40-45 (plus whatever they steal from the TE room in 10 personnel) snaps per game, keeping everyone fresh, before taking over next year as the full-time field receiver in a...
