    '20 NE WR Xavier Watts (Notre Dame Man)

    No, but the fact that he didn't walk for Senior Day and the fact that he's playing in the bowl game bodes well for those chances.

    '21 IN OT Blake Fisher (Notre Dame Early Enrollee)

    Overall, I think this is not a smart move by Fisher. I hope he succeeds, but I also think he needed another year. This whole "getting the 2nd contract faster" is a massive load of crap. The only potential snag with 1st rounders is that teams can use a 5th year option, but with Fisher, we're not...

    Notre Dame In The Transfer Portal 2023-2024 (Verified ND Interest Only)

    Kelly sounds pretty simple. He's graduating during the weekend, he is set to visit Monday. If it's cancelled, he's Irish. If he goes, then ND pivots to somebody else.

    General team info

    He's a Cincy guy, but he left before Fickell and Freeman took over.

    Notre Dame In The Transfer Portal 2023-2024 (Verified ND Interest Only)

    One really odd way I've found to figure out who ND is likely going after and possibly landing is looking at Riley Leonard's recent follows on IG. Weird, yes. But it's no shock that 99% of them are ND guys. So yeah, he's pretty much a lock at this point. He's also followed a few prominent...

    Chicago Bears address

    You really expected him to fix the complete dumpster fire that is the Commies in half a season? C'mon, they're a sinking ship and were long before he got there.

    Chicago Bears address

    Nothing to do with their offensive performance. They went from having the top scoring offense in '22 to the 11th scoring offense in '23. And really, their wins against the Bears, Raiders and Chargers are doing some SERIOUS heavy lifting for that 11th ranking. The play calling has been...

    Chicago Bears address

    Bienemy actually seems like a quality hire, given that the Chiefs offense basically went into the shitter after he left. But I expect Harbaugh, because of course the meatball franchise would hire that meatball.

    ‘19 ASU NB Jordan Clark (ASU Grad Transfer- Notre Dame Commit)

    Clark had more pass defended this year than Harper had in 4 years at Oklahoma State. I'm sure Prister knows a thing or two, but I've seen Clark play. If you were to put his film next to Harper at OSU, I'm taking Clark in a millisecond. More explosive, better in coverage. I think he's...

    Hey now, ND has female fans. This ain't a Rush concert.

    '21 IN OT Blake Fisher (Notre Dame Early Enrollee)

    It would be an absolutely dumb decision, but it sounds like he isn't even practicing, or at least that what was reported from their bowl prep. Definitely look into the portal, but only take a dude who can be a great tackle for ND. Don't just take a guy to take a guy. At that point, you might...

    '19 HI ATH Marist Liufau (Notre Dame Signee)

    He is elite athletically. He's not elite in terms of recognition and instincts.

    Notre Dame In The Transfer Portal 2023-2024 (Verified ND Interest Only)

    Barnes was a junior, and given he was an EE, very likely he leaves a degree in hand and is a grad transfer.

    Notre Dame In The Transfer Portal 2023-2024 (Verified ND Interest Only)

    Mike on ISD seems fairly confident that Leonard is coming. They also posted an update saying they're in good shape to land Mitchell (WR) and Clark (DB).

    Dec 29 | Oregon State

    I've read that Fisher wasn't practicing and it was Wagner + Baker at tackle. That's probably a giveaway that Fisher is leaving for the draft. Best of luck to him, but boy, he is not making a smart decision. If he goes sooner than the 4th, I'd be absolutely shocked, and frankly, he can do a...

    2024 WR Coach Search

    I wouldn't say it's Rees' fault, but we spent most of 2023 with what? 3-4 warm bodies at receiver? Most of which were freshmen, walk-ons or converted RB's. In this day and age, you ain't winning shit with that.

    2023 Watch Party: WEEK FOURTEEN

    FSU's 2nd string QB threw for 134 yards on 12/25 and they had 224 yards total against 5-7 Florida. The same Florida that got blown out 43-20 by Georgia, whom Alabama just beat.

    2023 Watch Party: WEEK FOURTEEN

    We wouldn't know who the best teams are then. If FSU had Travis, then they should be in, but they don't. It sucks, but that's the harsh reality. If we cancel the regular season, FSU doesn't even get a shot at the playoff in the first place.

    2023 Watch Party: WEEK FOURTEEN

    By that logic, ND > Clemson in 2018. Clemson needed a last minute miracle to edge out Syracuse 27-23. ND blew them out 36-3. Head-to-head trumps common opponent. And it's not like Alabama barely skated by their common opponents. They beat Tennessee and Ole Miss by 14.

    2023 Watch Party: WEEK FOURTEEN

    Big whoop. Their big wins are against LSU, Louisville and Clemson. The rest of their schedule is a joke. Alabama beat Georgia, Ole Miss, LSU and Tennessee, all of which are better wins than Louisville or Clemson. WHYDFML is a factor as well.
