Why is ISD talking about Denbrock? Is he a real target or are they just wishful thinking on a live pod?

Wrong. They didn't sign one last year and ended up going 8-4 with Drew Fucking Pyne most of the season. Jack Coan, Sam Hartman, and Riley Leonard will prove to be massive upgrades over what they had on the roster and w/o them, the record will indicate mediocre seasons that are good enough to...

Don't forget players on the roster get paid as well. I think it was Mike Frank that said ND players are paid very well. It's not just for the heavy hitters. I would assume it's a massive balance, invested in a way that allows a conservative 4% withdrawal to cover these payments. Day's $13M...

It's refreshing, for sure.

247 portal list is huge. This new age of college football is wild. Recruiting on steroids given the time frame and money being thrown around.

Is there an updated target list anywhere? I'd assume ND still wants a WR, S, DE, and OT? Hoping Banks and Oben check two boxes. Oh and the SC Kicker is probably coming, right?

ND basically validating this take with their NIL philosophy. We as fans who follow recruiting may hate not getting the 5* kids out of highschool, but ND putting up money for veterans makes far more sense from ROI perspective.

Meh. DJ Brown dropped a game-ending interception and ND had ten on the field for the last two plays. Let's not act like McCord was the reason they won as opposed to ND just shitting the bed when it mattered most.

I've always wondered what BK's early years at ND would've looked like if some of Weis' guys stuck around during the transition. Jimmy Clausen as a senior QB plus a ton of studs on offense who decided to leave. Was Floyd the only person he convinced to stay? I can't remember. ND hasn't had that...

I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you. That the locker room was divided when Zaire was on the team and lost his job.

That's the only "I'm staying in college one more year" decision I'll allow. haha

The OSU QB stuff is so bizarre to me. Also, MHJr said he wants to beat Michigan and win a B1G championship. Someone needs to help him understand that w/o a QB and with Day as their coach and with the conference realignment, that may be more difficult that ever before in 2024. Kid needs to...

It really is one of the most surreal places to visit. My wife and I stayed on base with a good friend of mine years ago. Late at night, he took me on a tour of the campus and showed me areas that are still damaged (left on purpose as a memorial). He talked about hauntings and all the weird...

They seeded Georgia at 6. Are there any committee members publicly saying they "wish they could've put Georgia in" or you just assuming? I read somewhere that the BCS churned out a different top four for the first time in this CFP era --> and it had Bama at 3 and FSU at 4. Seems relevant...

This will turn into a primer for 2024 with all the opt outs and transfers. I'm excited to see these young guys get a shot. It's not official, but Freeman was asked about Hartman playing and he said he's letting the guys make their own announcements. Should we read between the lines here? Is...

I don't think that's a conspiracy theory. John Brice basically said the ACC took care of their own first. I'm happy for El Paso publicly talking about the significant economic impact that ND brings to their city. They are genuinely happy about this and it just further confirms the relevance...

Looking over his page, yeah it looks like he dealt with quite a few injuries and it's probably a good thing he went and got paid while he could. I hope Blake goes on to be very successful in the NFL, but I think he needed another year in college. Get better, shoot up the boards, get paid more.

Correct me if I'm remembering wrong, but isn't Troy Niklas someone that fits this mold as well? I feel like he was someone who needed another year and could've shot up draft boards. He went second round, but is he even still in the league? Has he done anything?

This is true, but what is also true is that over the last decade, the top SEC teams have gone on to prove they're the best in football. It's played out on the field. No one, not named Clemson or OSU, has been able to come close to competing with them*. They've earned that benefit of the doubt...

I agree with this, but you still need depth at WR to run a practice and a legit offense. If one or two of the starters miss time, ND's offense regresses back to where it was against Clemson. People are looking at these transfers as a binary situation and it just isn't. You need numbers at the...
