As to "left tackles, right tackles, etc etc": the minimal relevance comment about the difference is truer or not depending upon the quarterback you've got. Not all quarterbacks are equally "aware" of the pocket. A highly aware one has less need for a blindside protector obviously, since he sees...

Here's a typically understated piece published in his town about Tim.

HA. My brother Tim's maybe. (Tim's the US Olympic Weightlifting Coach, and a GREAT person, especially with the guys and gals who train with him.)

I just hope that he gets drafted at all. He deserves a paycheck for a while at least. IF he can impress the NFL with brains to understand the plays (just like the OLines must understand them), AND then block like an extended lineman, he'll "Brock-Wright" it and succeed.

Everybody talks eternally about assuring BIG NIL monies for buying players --- eh ... OK. But my priority would be for those deep-pockets supporters to "buy" the best coaching staff who can REALLY recruit those "NIL glamor players." I want a head coach who is a master charmer in the living...

None of those people give a tinker's damm about what people like IE'ers say. The economic sport world revolves not a twit around any of us. Boggles my mind that anyone thinks so. The real world is a tad bigger than that.

If we have the OLine healthy and ready to play, we are going to smash through every defense we play. The RBs, OBVIOUSLY, are ZERO trouble. We will have one of the best rooms in the nation (Aneyas ++++). My opinion is that it will (again) be THE best room. And we will have an All-American QB...

Yep. Fire and Water don't mix.

Why "5 star" to Zero?: Because "5 star" is something people say you are in high school. It MIGHT mean something later or it might just be a colossal misjudgment (by EVERYONE, not blamed on our staff). Why people continue to make the assumption of "can't miss" boggles me. High school and big...

You guys can't admit publicly since this is a way-macho site, but there are occasional Hallmark movies that simply make me feel good (for a change in an old old world which leaves feeling good in short supply.) One I've watched twice is Once Upon a Christmas Miracle based on a real story. But...

Understand these comments about independence from everyone, but Notre Dame will never "lose its identity" about anything of real importance. AND, if we fear any opponents, we are not Notre Dame -- and we will NOT fear anything in this anyway. Notre Dame will attempt, without fear, to beat the...

My opinion on an un-win-able topic: 1. We used to be fanatically coveted by all conferences. The money has overwhelmed this, I believe, nearly completely. 2. Two conferences dominate, and, if ANY conferences continue to exist it will be them. 3. The Big 12 seems to have a slightly better chance...

Ultra-high class so long message. Bless you in the NFL, good warrior.

IE doesn't need scab-pickers regardless. We get enough pain on our own.

I feel moved to give our coach a full standing applause. It's because I think that although what I'll say has been said before, it probably hasn't risen above other sorts of hurrahs Coach Freeman has been showered with (some maybe not as deserved as fans would claim, and many fully deserved.)...

Can someone explain this? Are we a nation of upcoming morons or robots with prejudices so deep that they create "reality" in the face of what is brick-in-the-face contrary fact? How terrifyingly programmed is this ... whatever we are?

Irrelevant to this thread I guess, but both Alabama and Georgia played very slow to my eye --- I mean as far as offensive team speed or even play design and execution. I was very unimpressed by both teams' speed/quickness "threat." Can the Committee notice things like that in their eye tests...

Sounds like a genius ... he's got you guys talking about him. "Are you not entertained?"

Carl Yastrzemski did well. ... just kidding. Graduated from Merrimac later on.

The body just can't take it ... no matter how good guys like Landow are. :(:(:(
