    Brian Kelly Revisited (RIP BOZO)

    Exactly the sort of formal goodbye message I would expect. He is a professional, knew this was coming, doesn't really hold anything against LSU administration, and kept it civilized.

    2025-2026 Notre Dame Women's Basketball

    Yes. Fowles and Moore better have smallish injuries and the Ivey-speak poorly phrased. (Just say that they needed a little more time with their injuries, dammit. "Intentional" opens the gate for "disciplined.") So, if that, then why didn't The Holy Cross (?) transfer play more than garbage time...

    2025 CFB Polls and Rankings

    Thankfully, the committee realizes that Miami is NOT the team they started the season as, and is not punishing us (apparently at all.) Of course, I view this as justifiable. I imagine that Coach Freeman will strongly impress upon everyone that the "next game is all we're looking at" ... but I...

    Environmental Issues

    These things are inevitable in this economic "culture". You cannot keep chasing the last damm nickel in a money stream and not have moments of randomness become disasters. If you're not chasing the last damm nickel, you just might have enough safety redundancy or extra care that the catastrophe...

    2025-2026 Notre Dame Women's Basketball

    Ivey has to really hustle this year recruiting in both ways (high school and college), because if Hannah goes pro, there might not be even TWO current players remaining.

    Tommy Rees - Offensive Coordinator

    It's goofy thinking by me, but if Burrow or the two receivers want to bitch about how lousy their team is, then peel off many thousands of those contract dollars and buy a defense. Greed, sucks. So then does your team, and I'm not weeping for such money grabbers ... (after a certain level of...

    Tommy Rees - Offensive Coordinator

    I have a different intuition about Tommy being "stuck" with the Browns. EVERYBODY knows that the Browns suck, personnel wise and administration wise ... SO --> Tommy can't really lose. If the offense fails, well, not his fault; but if sometimes it really wins, then he's a genius. Right on...

    Tommy Rees - Offensive Coordinator

    I thought that both Chip Long and Tommy were good+ play callers, but Tommy was better and the more creative,.... sometimes almost bogglingly good. Both actually coached at Notre Dame, so, discussion sort of meaningful, barely. Why anyone would want to gripe about either eludes me. (Well, I do...

    Tommy Rees - Offensive Coordinator

    Go, Tommy! Do your strange magic. My brother-in-law needs some wins for his Browns (he's rooted for them literally since Otto Graham.)

    '23 MO CB Christian Gray (Notre Dame Signee)

    When I played ball, the misspelling of another player's name was considered a deliberate insult. I still read it that way (especially when there is never an apology.)

    '21 MN OL Joe Alt (Notre Dame Signee)

    (That one was my own art ... sorry, old man too happy with himself ... apologies.)

    General team info

    Best defensive backfield in the country (bragging that I thought so a long time ago ... but so did a bunch of people -- usually not commenting on IE.)

    '23 MO CB Christian Gray (Notre Dame Signee)

    Gray's good. Gray's a hard worker. Gray's good for the Team.

    '22 IA TE Eli Raridon (Notre Dame Signee)

    He is a powerful sure-handed lumberer --- shifty he ain't. But I like him a lot. If he gets to blocking like Brock Wright, he's a good pro.
