    ‘26 GA QB Teddy Jarrard (Notre Dame Signee)

    Correct, if you're Notre Dame what you want is to get all of the QBs on campus now and give you a full year of evals on each... everything from practice habits to leadership to arm talent. Then after CJ goes pro you can make a decision on whether you want to dip into the portal for a QB or...

    Mike Mickens ND CB’s Coach

    Surprised it took this long for him to find an upgrade, thought he would've been gone much earlier this offseason.

    Don't worry, we totally know what we're doing. We aren't blindly entrusting everything @Irish#1.

    I don't really see any difference between him and Ian Book as a passer. Medonza is obviously a lot taller and a little less athletic, but they are basically the same... ordinary arm, accurate, good release. That gets the job done in CFB, I don't really see how Mendoza is going to make it in the...

    Planned Site Outage for Updates

    Since it seems we have hit the post-portal, pre-spring slow period we will be doing some website updates this weekend. Expect intermittent outages as we update security certificates, software, etc. I'll post here again when it's all done. Also -- we will be looking into why some ads are super...

    I think there are two things to consider: 1. Unless rules change, I don't think the way he built this roster with FORTY SEVEN players aged 22+ is repeatable every year. 2. I also don't think it's sustainable to eval at the rate he did without a farm team like he had at JMU where he watched all...

    He did a few things different: 1. In our playoff game last year, he played "not to lose" including things like pointing from plus territory while trailing. This year, he calls a QB draw for Mendoza on 4th and 5 in field goal range. 2. He talked way less "trash" and had way less false bravado...

    It's true that the current agreement is only up to 14 or 16 teams, I forget which. I hadn't considered this angle.

    I mean...... I dunno if that kind of provision is legal/enforceable, I kind of doubt that it is since NIL is explicitly not supposed to be conditioned on playing for a school, right? But I have a hard time seeing there not being damages of some sort found in this case. And I also think the ACC...

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    Yeah the big takeaway from this year is "missed opportunity" because the field was wiiiiiiide open. A few different injuries or calls break ND's way and there's a very real possibility would've won it all. Indiana and Ohio State were the only two teams definitively "better" on paper.

    Not really when you look at advanced stats. One of the power ratings / Vegas people said they would be about a TD underdog to the LSU super team.

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    What Indiana is doing is not year-in-year-out sustainable but no team really is anymore. Bottom line is that: 1. They stayed almost comically healthy across the board this year and maybe that's just luck but it's also possible they're doing something we could learn from in S&C + injury...

    I couldn't really decide who to root for but Miami is truly detestable on many levels and I'm very happy to see them lose. Just so many people associated with that program suck.

    All of this is true, but Cristobal might be an even bigger jackass AND Miami is everything wrong with CFB right now. Really impossible to pick a team to root for.
